My Head Is Spinning Poems

10/10/2019

I tried to write today, but I couldn’t manage it.
You see, there’s a speck of dirt stuck to the paper.
I tried not to let it get to me, but to no avail,
And had already begun trying to get it off.
Scratching...Read More

God what a mess,
My head is spinning,
Each day more stress,
Am I still winning?

Wall street crashing,
The economy near stall,
The media’s constant bashing,
Pelosi’s new curve ball.

My plans are now in tatters,
Forestalled at every turn,
To do what really matters
Is all I truly yearn.

I’m...Read More

When she’s sick I’m so in trouble 
Rocks my world, bursts my bubble,
All at once my head is spinning,
Forehead aching, hair fast thinning.

I’m not trained to handle chores,
Clean the house, go to stores,
Cook the meals, feed the kids,
My existence on...Read More

Gibberish
Gibberish
Gibberish
My head is filled with gibberish
Habbulu
Babbulu
Shabbulu
Can’t someone stop me from babbling?
Hippity
Giffity
Biggity
My head is spinning three sixty
Hottolly
Pottolly
Nottolly
I’m losing my mind totally

Brilliant work of art
you are beautiful from
head to toe
your lips are perfect 
like that of dinosaur
Rolling and rolling
my head is spinning
back to Elizabethan period
seeing you standing
like Alice in wonderland
fairy but not fair
Oh! You're no goddess
a million confusion
design your face
What is...Read More

The Dark Side of October

Late October moon is waking, through this cemetery shaking,
shaking as the cold wind breaking, walking ‘neath an old oak tree.
Stones like sentries undertaking, guarding graves as hearts are aching,
aching for the still ones staking, such an...Read More

I’ll love you, precious, I’ll love you
Till the Atlantic and Indian oceans kiss,
And the wind jumps over the mountain
And the laughing kookaburra sing at the shores,
I’ll love you for all you are yet to be.
I’ll love you, honey, I’ll love...Read More

There are times i wonder if you care
If you notice what I wear
My head is spinning in circles with every dare
My life is going now where with every stare
An I don't know where to go
I'm so confused with everyday
I'm not...Read More

My head is spinning,
I know no matter what I won't end up winning.
Because life is a game with no winners,
Life is a game that only consists of losers.
It’s a game that we all play,
But not a game we choose to.

I'm thankful and oh so grateful

I heard you shut the front door
You cry victim -...Read More

Tears are screaming..
Soul is bleeding..
Life is shredding..
Body is falling..
As this dark is yelling at me..
As this wind is roaring in my ears..
As this sky is wavering on my head..
As this sand is intruding my feet..
As clouds are crying..
As wounds are...Read More

Numbers hike off of the page 
to venture around the walls.

Im trying to find the answer on the wall

I had the answer. I swear!

Audacious says the eyes of blue green
black and shiny leather from head

THE DITCH BECAME ABYSS: 
Collaboration with Tim Smith

When I was here
All the music sang lalala
I only saw your eyes

When you were here
All the words read you you you
and all made sense

When we were here
In a different life, the river flowed
rippling...Read More

I must be crazy
Losing my touch 
Can't think of anything
Let me just stay in my bed

I want to cry so much
My head is spinning too much
Still not enough reason to start crying
Today I managed to stop myself again

To be a...Read More

Here I am on the phone
Wincing and flinching
Put forever on hold
Listening to old music
That’s oh so loud
Feeling like an elevator
About to explode 
Banging piano, is Liberace back?
I think my head is about to crack
Waiting, returning and waiting again
My stares zooming...Read More

My hands are cold,
lips blue.
Baby there's nothing you can do.
My head is spinning,
blood dripping.
When will I see you again?
Bright lights,
people shouting.
Honey tell them I'm trying to sleep.
Loud crying,
people dying.
Baby please don't let it happen to me.
White light,
Last breath.
People screaming,
Flames beaming.

My love so strong and true 

I'd give everything for you 

But there's one thing I won't do

It breaks my heart to hear that...Read More

Too many thoughts to control 
Some thoughts rise with the morning sun
Others play tricks on the nights sleep to come.

As my thoughts play tricks on my night's sleep 
Vivid images of the ones...Read More

Setting On The Mountain top
I climb a mountain slowly.
Trees below look like tall sticks in the ground.
I get near the top and can't see anything below.
So I look up and start to goto the top.
I climb a little more and...Read More

Eggnog for a festive season
A special holiday celebration being the reason
Yet my head is spinning all over the place
I feel like I am in a race
That eggnog my mind will never erase
Mother always said don’t waste
But some how the alcohol...Read More

Anything goes
