Short Lefty Poems

Our elbows collided, 
'cause my desk is wrong-sided.
Made for a lefty, 
When I write
with my right....

Emptiness of past childhood
I was a lefty...

Lefty Louie was screwy
His stinky bum went blewy
Like a peeled onion
Was a ripe bunion 
Terminus Fungus was he...

Once was a man named lefty Louie
Tried robbing corner store Oh phooey
Little did he come know
Ten sensei's Ready go
Here there nothing felt but Ka Pooey's

We made an oath
To stick to the code
We raised ourselves
Caught up on the block
It’s called a trap
Lives up to the name
Eric
Lefty
Peca
Jay
Just a few of the guys
We fought
We laughed
We cried
I lived they Died
Cotto
Noah
Siso
James
Just a few of the guys
The axons keep churning
In my troubled mind...

Lefty or Right 
in our hands it is to unite,
        to firmly fight 
battles of bias forthright; 
         out of sight	
yet thoughts carry the might
        to bring to light
words or works of delight.
         Lefty or Right 
what thy hands bear get spot-light.

     


PS:
 I dedicate this poem to my cousin Shubha who is happy being a Lefty
and to other Lefties who need to fight any prejudices against them....

never knew
you would dig my every haiku
but you do
even more i love you
you read another
then you read the other
we relate like sister and brother
we enjoy our downtime like father and mother
oh my oh boy
you read a few poems of mine with such joy
at first i thought it was a ploy
motivation from you i now employ
never dawned on me
your love has set me free
you represent 'you', 'her', and 'she'
again God proves that Mighty Is He.......

Throughout our journey, one thing was rightly certain 
You were always right, and I was left with one option: 
Accept the menace was my lefty direction 
But my  right left his steps to ride with pride and excessive passion
And when you finally left , I wished we could right the wrong
 It was your right to have left ; and you are far gone
You were right when you said I would be left with regrets and our song.
I guess it serves right to be left in this mess: final curtain....

Lefty was a well known thug and criminal.
His reputation didn't do him any justice.
Because he was much worse than that.
He would rob or kill,depended on his mood.
Nobody messed with Lefty, all feared him.
Everything changed when he came across,
His protege , lil Lefty. Lil Lefty shot him dead
in cold blood.
The old saying is true " If you live by the 
sword you die by the sword."
