Winter snow
Running from you
You want me to do horrible things
With you
Trudging through snow
Very hard thing to do
You shout out my name
I keep going
A shot is fired
I scream
It hadn't hit me
You call...

Don't whine as regards how badly you feel.
It is solely your obligation to heal.
The pain it causes is such a quiet dagger.

THE NIGHTINGALE LOST HER LAMP

She was the kindest of angels.
Her speech firm with authority

Planning, for many years to come.

 Old empty windows with glass shattered,
 Decaying roof surrounding old brick chimney.

Of great explorers
He dreams of deep jungles
And wonderful animals

But he does not realize
How dreadful the place is
Until he crosses one of the seas
And among foreigners he is

(12/15/12)

As the nation weeps today for the twenty 
Angels which were taken away
We also weep for their families and friends
For this pain will never end.

Sitting in their classrooms with thoughts
And hopes and dreams of the...

Whenever they can, your troubles persist
Your mind becomes stressed.
And your life's reduced to plot twists
Designed to make you depressed.


Life isn't fair
But Goddamnit!

Force you to submit!


It's dark and evil and cold
And many more sinister...

The wounded sigh of a father,
Tells his concern for his child 
Whose actions seem stupid and wild.
   
The wounded sigh of a teacher,
Reflects his worry for his pupil
His progress, if he can’t quadruple.

Parched

Rapidly spreads day and night;
