That Girl

I’m 10 sitting by myself in sunday school
A girl walks in and I think nothing of it
She wouldn’t sit with me right?
Yeah No one ever did
I’m 11 sitting with that same girl in sunday school
I’m 12 sitting by myself in youth 
because she’s not old enough yet
I’m 13 sitting beside her on the same pugh
During service passing notebooks back and forth
I’m fourteen sitting in my room
With that girl she's staying for My birthday party
I’m fifteen in her living room celebrating 
her sisters birthday
I’m sixteen walking on the dirt road
At night with her and some our friends
 I’m seventeen hiding in her room 
From her younger siblings
I’m eighteen wishing I was at that girls house

Metamorphosis

Metamorphosis

I woke up this morning
With a feeling of dread;
I felt I was a-borning,
Where I'd be better if dead!

I woke up to religion,
My brother was some other,
I belonged to a region,
All issues were my bother.

What was once a call to prayer
Was so much noise to me,
I wanted to strip the layer,
Hidden idols there to see.

Where dress scarcely mattered,
(Pugh, burkha, saffron scarf)
My fragile beliefs lay tattered,
Common sense would dwarf.

My angst would not be bottled,
Imagined slights would rile me,
Your freedom makes me feel throttled,
I won't let things be as they be.

I'd take up a gun tomorrow,
Set right things as I deem fit.
Notions of nations make me sorrow,
As causes just waver and flit.

I am so lost and adrift,
Have donned the mantle of Samsa,
A vermin in thought is my shift,
An abhorrent creature of Kafka!

~kcm

(Gregor Samsa wakes up one morning changed into a vermin, a cockroach, in Franz Kafka's Metamorphosis. Just wondered if our minds have undergone this type of change)

I once knew an old bloke called Peter
Whose body could smell so much sweeter
He stank of stale wee
B O and coffee
T’was worse when he sat by the heater!

His daughter whose name is Anita
Tried hard to help Peter smell sweeter
He bathes twice a day
She gave him some spray
From Peter there is no foul fetor!

The Law

The Law - Poem by GLEN PUGH
they are there when we need them
in the day or the night
it dose not matter if you are black or white so lets stop all this killing and do what is right
in Ferguson, Missouri Michael Brown did fall
shot by a police officer there is a lesson for us all
no matter what race you are we must respect the law
the law is not always right that is not my message here
but stop and think before you act and live another year

Outside an inn ..tap,tap,tap
In hobbled Bind Pugh with his map
A story of intrigue did then ensue
On a remote island which comes into view-
A classic novel,still reads good as new
