Anxiety's a bitch.
Always feeling too tense.
Awake half of the night.
Angry now at myself.
Apprehensive a lot.
Ants crawling under skin.
Am I getting too thin?...

Trump the President

President Trump thinks he is impressive;
And in himself always seems to believe;
Stupid things does,
Just because;
No wonder we all are so apprehensive.

scared of predators
    sits on an oak awaken

So many of my poems started to supply;
Apprehensive,
And sensitive;
Had been horrible and me they did deny.

So many others have been offensive;
Totally diverse,
In this universe;
Can be considerate yet apprehensive.

Reading My Catechism

Remember reading my catacism,
And problems regarding rascism;
Am  apprehensive,
And also sensative;
Definately is causing cynacism.

in darkness of the night
our auric field manifests
we are startled and apprehensive
the universe jests and tests

the happenstance was fortunate
coming as a wake up call
roots of conditioning go in deep
who we are, we oft fail to recall...

I'm anxious about the future
I'm caught up in the past
I'm fearful towards those 
petty things
I thought would never last
You never see what's meant to be
You never can detach
What's darkest and most beautiful
Is the shadow that it casts...

You know that feeling
you've been here before
something is amiss
but not knowing what
uncertainty reigns-

doubts surface,
apprehensive
I push the door
very slowly-

lights are low,
nothing moves,
music plays-

Happy
Birthday

Sport!...

Many Ways To Live

Have been many ways for us to live;
My whole life to God willing to give;
To be seen remains.
When  person complains;
Advises if apprehensive and sensitive.

Going on walk.

a Pastor upon reading his sermon
was unconcerned when some of his flock
began to look at their watches
but grew a little more apprehensive
when removing them to shake violently
to see if they were still working.

Either Comforting Or Absurd Word

Best thing that I had heard occurred,
Could be considered comforting word;
Was apprehensive,
And also, sensitive;
Those from Trump were totally absurd.

did declare a truce
a slogan started to use
must try to amuse

we started shaving
into them started caving
have been behaving

are apprehensive
expensive and sensitive
being extensive

when we reached an end
many people would offend
to jail them will send...

Hoping, expecting, presuming
Relationships, promises, doubt, dread
Questioning, mistrusting, hesitating

Be still my heart, 
for the compass of this breeze is not yet known.
Hold fast my apprehensive pulse, 
for this roses thorns are not yet numbered.
Be as an oak my trembling knees,
for this currents vim has not yet peaked.
Be still my heart,
for this swan has yet to sing her song....

A pensive moon lets fall the rain 
that calls you to a darkened sill, 
where, apprehensive, you remain, 
held captive in her thrall

until she waxes at the window pane 
to ask intently if you'll still be back
when she's gone past her wane

Beyond the glass, 
you swear you will......

mysterious key
discovered in the attic-
but it fits no locks

no physical locks
have embedded their mark- 
silver patina

on bedside table
it rests, inducing slumber-
unlocks subconscious

i walk through that door
apprehensive and trembling-
find my tomorrow

“Like free roaming stallions - my liberated dreams.”

Apprehensive, I lay my weary head 
on the pillow of each long and restless night
embittered by pursual of revenge
till forgiveness came and spurred my demons’ flight.

Productive, constructive, forever chasing down time?
Corruptive, destructive, forever wasting your time?

Seductive, demonstrative, forever crossing the line?
Apprehensive, collaborative, always walking behind?

Emotive, corrosive, always using someone else’s life?
Offensive, abusive, do you ever look yourself in the eyes?...

Startled by the hallucination
of himself upon the wall
The man of a compromised conscience
cringes with apprehensive velocity


Debilitating panic emerges
with a disconcerting air of predictability
Transporting him, intangibly, to a setting that prohibits
his own narration
Forcing him to endure his biography
without any preferred revisions...
