So Small

Flea a grain of sand
dander a fleck
All that is me and
What the heck

It Begins With a Sneeze

It begins with a sneeze and you feel 
The dust mites clogging your sinuses 
Spores of memories you choke on
Take that broom right there the one with harsh bristles 
Stretch and feel your shoulder as you push deep to the wicked middle beneath your bed.
 Drag and push down pulling producing the tracks of grime. 
Fleetingly you recall the “Velveteen Bunny” or Harriet Potter as you think dust bunnies and smile. 
However in-between the tracks from the bristles you see a life. One that holds sorrow yet it’s home to so many dust mites. I think I must have given them a happy home. 
And now I have ruined yet another life.

Simple Salad

Making a salad for dinner
Thoughts in rhythm while I slice
And dice…

Take off your clothes
reveal yourself 
“know” one “knows”
Little one
we are all alone

The secret builds inside lost
Anger confusion why
I’m not special enough inside
Please help me try

Mom Dad do you love me?
Why am I alone please hug me

I’ve grown now so much
I’ve learned never touch
My truth is such

Forever now is my yearning to feel 
My innocence was stolen my soul can I heal
Who am I now that was cast
As clay a skin to peel on the wheel 
Around around folding 

Into this completed salad bowl I’m now holding

Inside

Accusations and lies
the narcissist with demons inside
Stand on your toes
carry a yoke on your shoulders 
No one must know
Store it away in folders
whilst dying the boulders
Alone she sighs

Do Not Ask Why

It wasn’t me
It’s always you
Why?
When your mind is my trap
A room that twists me landing me on the highway
The rain is falling the glare of headlights are my shame
But it wasn’t me I’m screaming inside
It’s always you he says
Why 
You do not ask
