a small child against her breast
all grown-up; a man

Excerpts From the Edge
negative noise
   weighted chest
       arms extended
overhead
waiting for a
   falling breeze
to
   carry me over...

Weighted minnow splashed….
Spawning crappie’s color flashed
Hook through the gill gashed

Premium Member Heaven On Earth
Four and a half year old grandson
Climbs up my legs
Into my lap.
Lies down on me like a weighted blanket.
Arms around my neck.
I feel his heart beat.
Heaven on Earth...

Premium Member Overrated
You will find structure is overrated
Producing humdrum routine most hated
Better to seek fun and love
And spirit rising above
Don’t let those local mores keep you weighted...

Unworthy
Lord, can you catch me
I'm weighted down with my sin
Can you carry me
Burdens buried deep within

Lord, do you want me
Undeserving of love
And will you keep me
Forever up above...

Release
Breathe in
focus
on nothing
Feel the world expanding
within my lungs
Breathe out
everything
hear the inner sigh
of peace
as weighted air
releases
melting chaos
into serene awareness...

Double Edge
Words are the enemy
till sparingly used

And weighted with meaning
beyond p’s and q’s

They serve to release us
with imagery plain

Expanding the message
—in pointed refrain

Premium Member Mrs Claus Has a Word With Santa
Santa's sleigh is weighted down,
The raindeer just said "nay!"
"Claus, my dear," said Mrs. C.
"You're much too much round!"

Heavy
Jan 9 2023 poem 

Heavy 
My body 
Is bricks 
My breath 
Shallow 
I sink 
Deeper
Too Heavy 
For My legs
To hold Me
Thoughts 
Like a
Weighted blanket 
Trapped and 
Tingling
Too Heavy
Helplessly 
Sinking

I'd rather see you joyful
than shedding many tears
I'd rather see you confident
than weighted down with fears

If I am feeling happy
then happiness I'll sow
If I am feeling sadness
then you will never know

Premium Member Rehabilitation
An ox can pull a weighted cart daily.
With mirrored force, I grapple to lift my right leg.
A toddler wobbles in his first steps,
but struggling, we inevitably became able to walk.
Hugging the wall, like a child in the deep pool, I rise up....

The Ride Is Too Rough
Let me off -

Stuffed
Weighted chest
life was to change, improve

Instead
the pain grips me
my gaze won't stay focused
eyelids insist on closing

Let me die
End this pain
End this life
Will it then end?

Shall I try?

Snap
I lay it down
and cross the line
addressing things
you thought were fine
the connection snaps
I can't go back
only forward
it is too late
what I created
was heavily weighted
the dam breaks
heartache pouring over
drowning what was left...

Listen to poem:
A Good Day to Stay In
By David J Walker

The cold December
dawn

Reveals the chilled morning
Sun

Just beyond the horizon

And the last month of the year
Begins

Weighted by the winter
Winds

Suggesting
It’s a good day to stay in...

Cafeteria
Patiently waiting in a line
eyeballed an wary
harsh barking of subterranean cultures
standing weary and inured
to the rotten
fug
the rotten
oxygen

inside the high walls and wire, the weighted stone of
the convicted

existing like convicts...
