Sometimes
By Michelle Morris
06/06/2026

Sometimes we get news
Sometimes we find out things
Sometimes our world is shaken
Sometimes our foundation stings 

Sometimes we're not who we thought we were
Sometimes childhood ghosts reappear 
Sometimes our hearts ache and get broken
Sometimes memories become unclear 

Sometimes life completely blindsides us
Sometimes people let us down
Sometimes love leaves us in the dust
Sometimes hope makes us a clown

Sometimes we are too little 
Sometimes we are too much
Sometimes the hope feels like it might kill us
Sometimes we feel stupid for our deep trust

Sometimes we fly too high
Sometimes we feel real low
Sometimes we're all feelings and emotions 
Sometimes our souls just glow

Sometimes friendships completely burn us
Sometimes summer love becomes forever 
Sometimes the Universe is mischievous 
Sometimes destiny and fate are inevitable 

Sometimes good strangers will surprise us
Sometimes our hope and faith turn life around 
Sometimes love and light expand brightly 
Sometimes our world view becomes profound 

Sometimes life is a beautiful blessing
Sometimes we see things in a better light
Sometimes joy and happiness shines in our eyes 
Sometimes our souls sparkle with delight

Realist Male Face Mask : The Disguise

They wrote this play to target
folk like us to be together.
Anyone who share these types of interest
would find this worthy of paying
money to see.
It's a neither lacks excitement or meaning
instead it combines them both
with the popular detail that makes
something entertaining and great.
The play set it self uses a three room set
 and a laboratory set where
the actors engage into the exciting skits
 of know thingness
that fuses a storyline
which creates villans and heroes
allowing the folky people create
the narritive which
might instruct the audiences
sense of what's happening.
The guy wears a mask and stands
to distance him slef
while another man who knows whats going on
and he knows why it's going on so he
engages into foolishness with no purpose.
He dawns the same mask and stay's in the distance
too. The badguy mask wearer is looking for
the secret formula: he knows who has it
and he know's where it is. He must get close enough to
retreive the formula which he beleives to be his.

I loved my son

Inspired by the moving storyline in a show. It's not easy when our children grow up to abuse their children. Even when they disappoint us, we still love them.

I loved my son 
By Michelle Morris
24/12/2025

When we have children
We are optimistic about their future
We believe in their potential
We believe in their goodness

We pray for their hearts
Their minds, their souls
We pray that they'll be 
Good as gold

But that's not always 
The way life works 
Their journey is their own 
Their choices can hurt

I loved my son
Despite what he did
I loved my son
From cradle to grave

Good or bad
He was my son
Good or bad,
I loved him all the same

Good or bad,
I feel his loss in my bones
Good or bad,
My heart is broken; my soul, alone

I love my grandson
He is another son to me
I love my grandson
He is a good man, indeed

Someone I'm proud to know
A man whose choices are gold
He is a hero, a warrior 
He is a good father and friend 

Life is a lot of loose ends
We don't always get the closure we deserve
We have to smile and accept it 
We have to breathe and find peace 

When we have children
We assume they'll outlive us
We don't imagine that heartbreak 
Attending their funeral; trying to survive it

We pray for their hearts
Their minds, their souls
We pray that they'll be 
Good as gold

But when they're gone 
Before their time
It's a silent scream 
Against the reason and rhymes

They may not be 
Who we hoped they were 
But it the end, we still love them
Because that deep love endures

Fault

always ends the same, 
i’ve come to learn that loving someone is a dangerous game.
the only way i learned was from the pain of a mistake,
soon you get used to seeing people walking with there back turned to you.
from the start you know the ending you convince yourself this time it wont happen,
this is something new.
its never your happy storyline,
they wont even remember you when there forty-nine. 
i know there is one i will always see in my rearview,
in those years to come i will always see you.
don’t blame me i never wanted you to leave,
you have moved on but i still grieve.
i tried to warn you about this game, 
i tried to tell how it all ends the same, 
you took it as a pinch of salt, 
in the end you told me its not my fault.
just turn back around,
and you will see me there waiting to be found.

Story of My Life

Why do I continue with this book
the chapters either deadly dull
or all the action occurring at once
in an overwhelming cascade of events
that muddles the mind
too complex to keep up with
impossible to sort out the storyline
rendering me confused and stupefied
A tedious and tiresome tragedy
The plot painfully predictable
yet I persevere through every page
pensive, apprehensive for the conclusion
that I’m certain will be formulaic 
utterly forgettable
I’ve given up on others 
under similar circumstances
returned them unfinished to the library 
donated them to charity 
It’s futile to have faith it will get any better 
in the second half
yet I can’t bring myself to capitulate
to wave the white flag of surrender
and cast it aside
I will see this story through 
to the bitter end
because it’s mine

Her Final Tattoo

There was an old lady named Lindy Loos
Her skin was a canvas adorned with tattoos
Her back and her front were a fine work of art
But one final message she had to impart
For now she was old she had reached ninety one
Tired and weaker for her time had come
Her tatts like her soul were now creased and faded
No longer danced till midnight or walked unaided
And as the tattooist prepared his ink
Her life in tattoos, well it made him think
of a life laid bare through her many tattoos
For her final inking these words she did choose

‘No more words, no more skin
No more images to ink within
My life like my tatts is now fading away
As I wait for my calling on that final day
Like my tatts I wouldn’t change a single storyline
My skin is my biography so read it if you have the time’

And as he completed this poignant rhyme
She had already gone - for this was her time

Often people are quick to judge folks with many inkings, but these tattoos can be representative of the trials and tribulations they have had to deal with in their lives, for some are troubled souls whose only way of expressing their feelings is to have them inked upon their bodies.  I wanted to say in this poem 'please do not be quick to judge'.  I myself have no tattoos, but know many who do.

Piece of Her Soul

Inspired by a moving storyline from a show. Rape takes more than a woman's body. It is a violation of her soul. 

Piece of her soul 
By Michelle Morris
12/08/2023

She sits in the dark
Can't leave her home
She doesn't believe in justice
She won't know their atonement

Two men took her body 
They took her screams
They took a piece of her soul
They took her life's freedom

The terror and the nightmares
Whilst asleep and whilst awake 
No one should have that power
Over another person's fate

Will she find the strength
To call back those pieces
Her shattered psyche 
Her soul's darkened recesses

To use the power
The medicine inside
Support of her ancestors 
Support of her tribe 

Rape is more than four letters
It can lead to a life sentence
For the victim, not the perpetrators
One of those terrible life lessons

No woman deserves such cruelty
No man deserves such dominion
We are each accountable to the other
Our souls are linked in eternity

Let's start by turning on the Light
Within our souls and in our lives
Let's be gentle with each other 
Make love and sex non weaponized
