Crapy talker
Odd manners
Deniable
You always say the samething...

Cody of  you I ponder
Obessed with concern and wonder
Desiring a good life and joy
Yearning for you to be a happy boy

Just come close to me
Understand my desire for thee
Standing beside you all the way
Thinking there will be a better day
I love you and always will
Now and untill God calls me and then better still...

The sun set like a fireball but invisible
Clouds had the it hidden from view
So the sun won the battle 
Casting the whole western cloudy sky red
Even clouds wrapped to the northeast paled pink
Beauty for humans ~ animals? to behold
Blessings to end the day, excitement at God's paintbrush
Thank you God for your love and bounty

Cody came home yesterday!...

I wake up in the morning
and the pain begins,
Starvation, beatings, disease
when will it ever end...

There is blood on my elbows
and blood on my knees,
my clothes are torn
I just want to be free...

I am what I am
I guess thats why I'm here,
I've been here three months
And I'm numb with fear...

I pray to God
and ask him why,
what did I do
to deserve to die...

The prickly pear cactus is frozen
And the plant has toppled over
As the temperature rises, clouds cover
And the plant thaws will it spring approval
In the spring will it be a trooper
With the instinct for survival all over



(This was the morning that Cody had phone calls at three AM and he didn't wake up to 
answer them and I finally just got up. No excuse.  I should have checked my work. Sara)...

It is time to find your rain gear,my friend
It looks like this drought is almost over.
For six years we thought it would never end,
But now maybe we can plant some clover.
The drought has cost me my wife and girl friend -
Turned me into a bachelor rover.

But now storms are rollin' across the plain.
Come out, Jack Cody - smell the Summer rain.

Goodbye
February 7th
You died
Leaving my broken heart behind
I cried
Darkness never looked so nice
Depression never made me feel
more alive
When your birthday comes
I will visit your grave
Sit beside you and pray
Talk to you
Wishing I could see you face to face
In heaven it won't be the same









Cody died February 7th, 2011. He committed suicide. He was born October 16th, 1993. I miss u Cody and I love you 
forever. ~~...

I am a vision of Cody
Immortal now at five dollars
First beers in Lowell 
actually on Jack Kerouac

Flutes Sirens and choppers
A blended symphony
A cacophony in warm morning sun

Words in Stone

Along the canal 
Blackwater yellow leaf
Laying low on celluloid
Bluefish plastic bag diving deep

Into library basement
Pied Piper Amram invites me
To breathe life into myself 
And my words as my journey continues 
Across this rock called earth...

Poor Paul poor Paul
Shot went through
Don't bawl

Someone call the po po
Cody said he won't hold a gun
No mo no

Paul said help me through the door
Cody said aight bro

Paul's sweet innocence
He said why'd it happen like dis

Don't end it poor Paul, Poor Paul
We call u Pauly D
Why u wonna hurt me

Shot in the arm
Through the leg
Hope they don't turn to a peg
Poor Paul, poor Paul


-humorous poem for a friend who got shot by accident (he's okay though)...

We received a call last night that Cody's dad had made a turn for the worse..

We knew that death would be soon and don't pray for his recovery but for death to be easy..

Remember us as we deal with Cody and the situation..

Gary has refused a feeding tube and he is unable to swallow so he can't get better unless God heals him from this awful illness..  

Cody seems to have it uncontrol but any little thing will set him off..His emotions just go from up to down so easily..
