The library my haven
My home
Hours upon hours
Night and day
I read and got lost in text
They supplied me with adventures
Secret journeys
Fun...

And it’s still one of my favorite shows.

Watching the show was a lot of fun,

Like Morning Dew
Thinking of you
is mesmerizing and
true…just like
morning dew, it’s
fresh and I’m
actually feeling
brand new – that’s
something new
I run around in
circles…I’m spinning
around and round!
Going insane,
running in the rain
and not singing the
blues 
Out of the blue,
I’ve lost my other
shoe…sick...

I don’t know why 
You’re flooding my mind tonight…
I run around wildly, trying to erase the thought of you, but I hesitate
I don’t want to accept...

Weredog, Part I
It was probably three weeks ago
when I sent my dog outside,
he had all of his business to do,
then he’d come in for the night.
I busied myself cooking dinner,
it was late, already dark,
Ripper would have time...

You'Re Not Perfect the Way You Are, Part I
I saw children playing soccer,
running around this way and that,
that in itself was no issue,
it was the parents who were bad.
They insisted there was 'no score,'
and that nobody there would ‘win,’
that all of this was...

Sunday Drives Into the Country
Sunday drives into the country,
escaping the heat from the city,
passing tobacco farms along the way,
with old barns and rusty Coca-Cola signs
resting against their weathered sides.
