I became the Bard, because I was outside of myself
I have stared death in the face
with its huge gaping jaws
most of my life
i have evaded those paws
My families crazy made up scheme
of overdramatizing my diagnosis
made my life a paralysing psychosis
I freed myself from that drek by compartmentalizing me
but it meant I never really could connect how I felt about anything
I also really had

Proxy Dance
Let's all proxy dance...
Partner up with a do-si-do
Rigged an election don't you know
Proxy with a smiling schmo
Pulled it off with lots of dough
Big Red tried to overturn
Peaceful protest then adjourn
Proxies promote crash and burn
Rigged them scales and justice stern
Stumble, stumble all around
Smiling schmo keeps falling down
Lie, lie, the truth hold down
Angry about the wrong pronoun
Back,

Proxy For Love
Dogs, cats, children, mates, heck, even strangers
sometimes find themselves drawn close
in proximity to something
they feel but may not
even know how to articulate.
Such is Life.
Like seeking like,
the comfort of others
in security
obviously, but more so,
fundamentally so,
in love.
Love is what fuels Life;
an axiomatic recognition
that differentiates the spiritual
from the mere material.
Spiritual values have lost favor
because by

Munchausen By Proxy
Sometimes she will talk of it, not often,
but maybe her mother, just to see how she is doing,
opens a door in her mind again.
Dead mother, in her very special way, still cares.
When young, very young,
she was taken on long silent walks
to the emergency room;
another inexplicable illness had
crept into her bed.
One more deadly threshold

Proxy Wedding
Sweat is dribbling down my face, I am feeling hot
I can still hear the cracking sound swirling around
And the night dancing to its own rhythm
The night suddenly fades in and the journey begin
That night I finish school late
And boarded the bus from Kingston town
And got off at Spanish town
Then hop on another bus

God Cheats By Proxy
God is master of the universe
except on the internet
he often needs help
he has no internet account
so followers cheat
here and there
God must be heard
he commanded the cheat
Is all in the small print
God they feel is not strong
he needs them to defend
me me me me little me
to make sure he is heard
I don't see irony
I don't

Write Poems By Proxy
Will you write poems by proxy,
To someone like me who is foxy;
So must inquire;
We know a liar;
Was Trump who is hot to trotsy.

Destruction - Stalking By Proxy
Once I seemed respected,
Loved even might I say
But those the closest to me
Took my life away.
They fooled me with their promises
They fooled me by their lies
And now I am rejected
That's what happens when love dies.
I gave them everything I had
I trusted them to be
The people that I needed
To love and sustain me.

Proxy - My Love Part Vii
I swim in the darkness you once reigned in
And he, he arrived and pulled me out
My eyes now blush from his tender caresses
Our hands entwined, an answer to my endless doubt
When the moonlight hits his eyes, it reminds me of the deepest oceans
His laughter is more beautiful than the starry sky
His arms form a

Thoughts of Politicians By Proxy
Thoughts of Politicians by Proxy
(President-House-Senate)
By Franklin Price
8/17/2016
(forward)
I'm not a politician
Would never want to be
By looking at their actions
These are the thoughts I see
(proxy thoughts)
What a cush job I have got
Don't have to work so much
The money's good from everywhere
Barely have to stay in touch
Expense account is limitless
Just has to look like work
Have staff that

Proxy
These hours own shadows, hold words that we will never speak. We cannot see past the next line. This fear of dreaming craves my sleep. And you taste sweet when the anger chases you down.
Silver moons hang down from heaven. We are the last of the unbelievers. We got left here at the rivers edge.
