Hurt
I spent my whole life building. I saw it all, yeah ups and downs. Started from nothing, God knows I did it all, and brought this empire from the ground. For generations I have toiled to build, each passing year my empire’s grown. I barely slept, I had to see it done, and claim this empire as my own. And I was proud...

Our Priorities
In life we have priorities, But when you’re feeling sick, So much of what you care about Drops down the list real quick. Like how you look or what you wear Or if your house is clean Or if you move your car So traffic cops won’t be on scene. Or making plans to go away Or maybe meet a friend Or even watch that...

Concepts I thought were imperative as a teen Uncalled for, superfluous items often unseen A mansion, movie star status and lots of money Not nearly as important as being called mommy and honey...

Specially caught shells and pearls, still lace is woven with worn fingers. The anointed ten, working together, crochet a web of intricate design. Shells on the sandy shelf satisfy, but doilies and tablecloths linger. For long in darkness and flickering, scented candles and burgundy wine. Pearls of buttons and bows preen, but a veil of mantilla lace whispers. The free flow of digits and knuckles...

One Change
I wish I could teach the world one simple thing, then pray that they grasp it and start following. Because it would change every outcome to be, dispel all the darkness and set the soul free. ‘Twould make everything we do under the sun a pure joy to do just because of this one simple change that...

Priorities
She was wearing her pajamas, while standing at the checkout stand. There were pink curlers in her hair, a box of twinkies in here hand. A screaming child was on each arm, two more crying brats in the cart. One was pulling the fire alarm, one was tearing boxes apart. Half of the boxes were open, cereal spilling on the floor. The two kids just...

Domestic Order
The kitchen's disinfected, the worktops squeaky clean, The laundry's in the wardrobe and nothing's left in the machine. The crockery is washed and dry, it's stacked in cupboards, looking neat. There's just one nagging problem, I've got nothing left to eat!...

What fills your goals, son? I told you! Need to get my car rolling [life rolling, love rolling] yesterday, if not today... If I may interrupt to process mindful resilience for a bit... Let me ask again: Noticing you are concerned about long-winded and -winding and -whining and -worrying despair regarding personal and commercial transportation issues, [but not articulating trauma tissues, nor shadowy personal wealth issues] What is your primary...

Left Hanging From the Swing
You came out swinging and talked a good game. But you fizzled out and left me to hang. All alone in this tango for two. It was supposed to be me and you. But you had your eyes set on some other prize. While I was ready for you, you were stuck in the clouds. Wishing on a star. Swimming among the...
