When it's too early
And by the time words won't hurt
Deeds will have spoken for you...

Earn you looks but not respect,
Aiming high, do note
Even if their words ring true,
The best still have to show up...

Telling you statements of
Untruth regarding you. You are
Pitiful. Yes, yes
Indeed you are outright
Devastatingly dumb.

Undercooked statements are rude

Expanding bellies cunclude
Digestion sounds are crude...

If only I read the statements your body spelt

If only you took my hands

If only you had me stay

If only you drew me to your racing heart

If only...

I like, to think, you talk amongst yourselves,

   little birds 

                  in state

left, by Marjorie, 

in nineteen thirty-eight.

Written In Inspiration

Eloquent words of the mind
Imply the powerful kind;
Languid thought stays far behind.

Penned In Hope

Enchanting statements amaze
Each one in the human race;
Nicely bringing sanguine grace.

on a soapbox 
constantly yelling 
black and white 
statements concerning 
what one should do 
to be considered normal
became an unhealthy 
ritual among the two 
repellent souls brought 
together by chance long

Come on let me down real slowly
Feed me once again another lie
Majestic words, are open statements
I want to look in colored lenses
The pretty picture you paint our lives

In hues of happiness and blissful bribes
I'm rendered sweetly in your eyes...

Power is an intoxicating spice
Oily politicians line the public troughs with it
Wealthy corporations dress it up in lofty mission statements
Erotic mistresses ooze it to extract favors from lovers
Reformers inevitably glom onto it to achieve dubious ends...

Messy,
Messy lives,
Tangled lines,
Often making strong distinctions,
Only after feeling underwritten,
Yes I've made some strong statements,
Now I see I needed them for grounding,
To be able to come back to center,
And not worry what yarns spin around me....

I look at the money,
  asking—what’s it all mean

From the toys to the honey,
  and the years in between

I look at the statements,
  as my love takes a bow

Thanking God my abatement,
  although late—came about
