Jealously is commonly tied
To a monster that’s green-eyed.
How are they related?
Can the words be restated?
Jealously more accurately defined,
As a person with insecure mind.
Secluded but not always successful
Expressed but not always explained
Concealed but not always confidential
Restated but not always respected
Erased or sometimes embraced
Truthful but sometimes causes trouble
Form:
Thoughts and Freedom
thoughts
pass in review..
temporary shapings
within and made of
our only Self
Awareness..
then our choice:
am I a thought
or am I Awareness
or restated:
am I caught or
am I free...?

Restated
unproven
— and left ill defined
(Radnor High School: January, 2026)
Tuning letters like strings
the words are reformed
The rhyme and the meter
the rhythm reborn
Each vowel and each consonant
together in line
No commas or periods
to block or confine
The meaning inherent
and left unexplained
restated once over
a blinding refrain
To put in the file
the future in bold
the verses in couplets
—the reading on hold
(Dreamsleep: May, 2022)
Seat Taken
“Seat taken?”
Asked Jamal as he entered the first unfilled pew.
The lady looked at him and wondered if he knew.
Why is this young man here?
What could be the occasion,
An African American in a White congregation?
The usher quickly came near.
“Will you please move down dear?”
Once again Jamal asked the question, a frat “initiation.”
Anticipating their 3pm meeting,
Having filled this stage of his “subjugation.” His question he restated,
“Seat taken?
