not sure why we are friends
She talks nonstop about herself
All of our conversations are one-sided
If I try to speak, she has to go
When she has a problem she needs my empathy and sympathy
When I have a problem, she one-ups it; has had ten worse problems
I am not sure why we are friends
Or if we are

Not Sure I Like It
Snow fall and Santa
those long winter nights
a season for merry
cold winds they do bite.
I'm not sure I like it
no matter the year
seems the older I get
the lesser the cheer.
No sugar plums dancing
around in my head
the countdown to Christmas
12 days I do dread.
So bring on the sunshine
and a warm summer breeze
for I'm really more merry
at seventy

Not Sure What This Title Should Be
Scattered though my peices of time
So many tears I cried
Now I am so alone
I cry so much more now
When these places are no longer filmiar
I have adapted to all this change
Yes we seem so much more together
But no longer as one
I can't see my future
All I see is my past
The present is a work in

Not Sure
I see sun,
I see sorrow,
Mingled on the floor,
A cracking egg, a knocked door,
Mangled wealth and poor.
I hear sound,
I sometimes smell it,
Synesthesia knows not whence,
A response received to transmit sense.
I feel proud,
I feel pity,
For what I cannot tell,
Determine, please, what I should do:
Be sick or kind of well?

For Ukraine and Peace, Poem In Progress Not Sure Style
Putin your tyranny we know is so strong
For even your people can't ever deny it
Through peace your walls will crumble
Upon peace sword for you will stumble
Peace is what the world know's so strong
Something inside so strong we'll defend
For our democracy it will be our victory
Peace it is never so wrong we'll defend it
Was listening to

Not Sure
I'm not sure these feelings are that you make me feel
I'm not sure why my heart races just for you
I'm not sure if any of this is true
I'm not sure if this love will be forever with you
I'm not sure your tender touch is forever mine
I'm not sure were this relationship will run
I am sure

Starting With Not Sure
I'm not sure about this
entertainment
divorced from engagement
issue
But,
consider the following
a hypothesis,
a Thought Experiment
in the Indigenous MotherLand
and SacredWaters
of ecowomanist political theory,
Part of my own experience
betrays a rightwing bias
against superficial entertainment
And, by association, self-promoting entertainers
living out shuttered
and too often unshuttered cluttered
Reality Shows
confusing inside unsafe voices
with healthy outside choices
Most corporate-sponsored
overly mediated events
desecrate cooperative profit motives
And, by popular reassociation,

Not Sure Where This Went But Fab Rick Was Somewhere In the Mix
I was going to swap my brain for another

Not Sure
U r laying on the other side of this wall
So many feelings left unspoken
Tomorrow u leave again
My body shakes when u r near
Ur eyes make me weak and at ur command
I don't think that I can handle the next time that I see u
This time was hard on my heart
Knowing that u feel nothing for

I Am Not Sure You Will Like Her
Have you met her?
Not yet. I reply.
I’m not sure you will like her, she says, haughtily.
As much as I dislike this person, I want to hear more.
Feeling a kindred spirit right around the corner.

Not Sure When Or How It Happened
Don't know when or how it happened,
Or even why,
But I have reached an age where people see me as wise,
Yet it seems like only yesterday that I was feeling most unwise,
And acting accordingly.
I don't even remember signing up for my masters' degree,
Or indeed any degree to put me on equal footing,
With those I once sought

It Could Be Good, It Could Be Sweet
It could be good, it could be sweet,
But I’m not sure that I’m in love
with you and you are all I need
that you’re my half, that you’re my half.
I am not sure you are the one
You didn’t say I love you so
And if my frail heart comes undone
you'll follow. I would like to know
your lips.
