Ten Poems

Ten Years Of Tears-TSF

Ten years
Of joy
You gave,
Before
Death’s bell
Was struck
So fast.

Ten years
Since then,
Your love
Still blooms,
Yet I
Remain
Downcast.

Daddy,
I miss
Your laugh,
Your love,
And all
The care
You showed.

If tears
Could wake
The dead,
My God
Would grant
Prayers
I sowed.

An Hour And Ten Days Madness

It's been an hour and ten days
The time since you went away
It's been a torture for me then
The feeling is like I'm a neglect
Everyday seems a dull moment
It's gloomy, I can't concentrate
I'm alone, I can't done my work
As if there's no life in all I see
The colors around me all dark
Every food I eat has

Balls

When first I went ten-pin bowling
was in a league of my own
tho' hot to trot my score was shot
splits and gutterballs set the tone
my opponent bowled professionally
outclassed before I'd begun
she demonstrated then remonstrated
“It's not 'only a game' to some!”
tho' bet my set I'd met my match
when playing each frame for a round
looked like I'm paying

Each sip dream treat
   makes time drift slow
     class   tea swill luscious
        full marks fair trade

Reward rich harvests
   from farm land crews
      as they sweat and toil

Ten Bibles

Can you hope
to guarantee
the truth
of conclusion

The paradox
of confirmation
the duality
of illusion

Can you swear
on ten bibles
only lying 
on nine

With assurances
granted
before losing
— your mind

(Dreamsleep: May, 2025)

Premium MemberIn the cold tub, at ten-thirty in the morning, I float like a wreck

In the cold tub, at ten-thirty in the morning, I float like a wreck after a week of drinking and gambling,
My body trembles, my mind is a dense fog, when suddenly the phone rings like a bell in an empty church.
A young voice, a folk singer, tells me she has kicked out her boyfriend, his

Premium MemberMemento on the Moon

Memento on the moon, our demise that’s too soon—
since ancient moral laws, our reasoning had flaws.
The Ten Commandments bold, the wisdom of old told,
its light spread in a rush, but now collective hush.
Man’s creation will bloom, like destructive mushroom 
casts the atomic streams over our shattered dreams.
Echoes of progress vast – tyranny’s shadow cast,
encapsulated whim

Premium MemberTen to Ninety

There is no reason to die except
An intent to be born again
Considering this, we are living dead
Why don’t we remember it then
Scientists say that we use only
About ten percent of brain cells
The other ninety must feel a bit lonely
They can’t show up anything else
But a passive presence, or maybe not
Entirely passive, the scientists say
But nobody

Q:  Did I both contact my foot doctor and United Healthcare about the $150.25

A:  Yes, and I won't be receiving any more statements from them but Medicaid only

Premium MemberProofs

Proofs!!!

I could never grasp proofs
they were too much for me

How could side-angle-side equal
prove that the hypotenuse squared
plus, the cosine of angle A equal
the square root of Pi?

How could (x+a)^n=?_(k=0)^n¦?(n¦k) x^k a^(n-k) ?
prove to be the same as
f(x)=a_0+?_(n=1)^8¦(a_n  cos??npx/L?+b_n  sin??npx/L? ) 


How could a squared plus b squared
equal the sine of angle abc if
