There once was a guy named Jack
Who daily brings Christmas back
As he makes the rounds
With his humorous sounds
We're off to his house too unpack!
Santa gave Donald Trump a big sack
That he thought Trump would never unpack
But to Trump's great delight
It was all anthracite
(Donny loves to burn coal 'cause its black)!
Those Dear
Hold Near
Don't Keep
Jealousy
Tell Pride
It's Goodbye
Don't Leave
Bitterly
Think Straight
Don't Wait
Unpack
Come Back
Embrace
God's Grace
Forgive
And live
I Say
This Day
Stand Still
You Will
Always Be
Family
Never have I seen trouble as deep as
The catastrophe in Tamaulipas.
I chanced on a 6-kilometer crack -
A lot of information to unpack.
If you fall into the crack, it seems,
You'll be in China or the Philippines.
I tell you straight, put it on the level -
It is either drainage or the devil.
When I arrive home.
I will silently unpack.
To be abandoned.
To be unabandoned.
The community that found me.
The people I’m destined to forget.
The society I had been taken from.
When I arrive home…
There is too much to unpack.
Tomorrow, the apologies begin.
Tomorrow, the secrets begin.
The day before Christmas
I found the place
The place where my presents were hidden
I unpacked one
Knew then that I was deep in trouble
So what did I do?
I unpacked them all
Thinking
How angry can my mother become?
For Christmas I got one present more
And to unpack the rest one more time
I was very young
And got a mother’s smile, too
SLACK TIDE
moon draws
back slack
high lows
collide
new address
to compress
I digress…
seas glide
as shores
abide
waves hide
then
subside
unpack
draw back
stress-smack
hide-crack
I assess
undress
and
digest
cast aside
this
great divide
worldwide
deep
inside

angry-gray steam billowing
from its coal-stoked furnace
its whistle threatening a reckoning
speed decreasing with each turn of its wheels
the mighty locomotive pulled into
the station, her denizens eagerly waving
to folks as familiar as the sounds of the prairie
adventures to unpack once back home
A poverty life
a broken heart
all I can give my wife
and I tear us apart
why are you still here
move on and succeed
all I can give is a tear
an that you don't need
So before you unpack
and think this is right
remember my lack
to put up a fight
I will continue to cause pain
and I think we both know
I am still the same
so you should probally go
Form:
We’ve moved
my wife and I from home
to the last place
we’ll ever live and she
wants to know why
I’m sitting around
not helping to unpack.
So I tell her the problem
which is her problem too
but she keeps unpacking.
I’m not at home, I tell her,
but I’m not here either.
Not to worry, I say.
I’ll let both of us in
when we arrive.

I'm waiting for yesterday
I'm waiting for before today
I'm waiting for all the fun we had
I'm waiting now and feeling sad
I'm waiting for the day that I called you mine
I'm waiting for the sun to shine
I'm waiting for the time we shared
I'm waiting for the time you cared
I'm waiting cause I want you back
I'm waiting for you to unpack
I'm waiting for yesterday
I'm waiting for before today
Lingering among the stacks
Interval of serenity, a luxury to
Borrow a world, then bring it back
Riches of printed page, once few
Are carried throughout the community
Requiring only a card to belong
Young and old both given opportunity
Lending literacy to growing minds, strong
Out of many streets, they share the room
Vaulted ideas have a place to bloom
Encyclopedias of adventures to unpack!

September is here
I wave goodbye to summer
Unpack the fall gear
Cold weather is a bummer!
I'm glad we're eased in
With leaves as they change color
Reminding me of when
I played tag with my brother.
Jumping into leaves
We raked up into a pile
Never misperceived
A landing spot worthwhile
Seasons changed again
And snow now covers his grave
So young he was when
He decided life would end
He thought he couldn't be saved.
He left footsteps
On maroon heart
Pickled my breath
Left me teal tart
A shadow of self
Onyx eyes now dark
Casting my cares
Left stoic torn apart
Let me wallow in my pain
I avoid sun and embrace rain
For without one the other is vain
This too shall pass but I remain
Stuck in a lesson learned too well
Burned in my brain like fire from hell
Give me some time I’m sure to unpack
Reorganize my mind get my groove back
If ever you’re giving your heart away,
I'm first in queue.
If ever you’re ready to surrender to love,
I will submit with you.
If ever you want to conquer mountains of destiny,
I will climb with you.
I see divine tendencies in you,
let me submerge in it.
Unburden your fears,
show me your vulnerabilities
don't remain taciturn
We can unpack together.
I feel your soul,
It illuminates my darkness.
Let’s fall in love fearlessly.

The summer holidays are here!
Time to relax and unwind.
Let's head for the beach,
build sandcastles, ride on donkeys
and paddle in the sea.
The golden sun is shining -
No clouds are in sight.
We apply coconut scented lotion
then lay on beach towels
taking care not to burn!
We unpack our picnic hamper
onto a huge tartan rug.
There’s lots of delicious treats
food gets eaten very quickly -
we’re wary of pesky seagulls!
who am i
does anyone
know
who am i
does anyone
care
i know lots of people
but i have
no real friends
i chat, laugh
and sympathize-
but it's all pretend
when left alone
with moments
to ponder
i look inside
and try hard
to find
the real me
my essence
the me left behind
i'm ashamed
to admit
i'm ashamed to say
the real me
is buried
deeply packed away
i waited
too long
to unpack myself
that myself
is long gone
and i'm just a mess
