In the early morn
I heard in the willow tree
The bird call to me

Jeremy Mallett Poem
If death were to come
today at my door,
is it a risk,
a dream or a chore?
Today it may pass
or today it may come.
But will I be content
if today it is done?

Jeremy Mallett Poem
Survived by the whore,
which he fornicated with
several times
prior to his divorce.
Special thanks
to the bikers at the bar
where a large sweet tea
gets you unlimited trips to the free buffet.
I'm sure they knew
the whore well too.
His father passed on
well before his own demise,
eaten by lies,
greed,
self-absorption.
I'm sure the worms
remained lacking
of his tender,
childlike, lusting, flesh.
His mother
paid his way.
From Georgia
to Florida,
Alabama,
and all banks between.
She never knew his father
until after fifty years of marriage,
a prostate
and lung later.
He was laid to rest
August 2004
though he died long before that.
He's been spotted since
in Lowe's
aisle 3.
"Bubba" wispered
through a ghostly breath
but not passing from his world
to mine.

Although brandishing clandestine discoveries
everyone figured geographically
how intertwined
Jeremiah Kline
lived 'mongst native
opiate producers.

speculatively tarnished understanding,
validifying worshiper,

Jeremy Mallett Poem
To hope for the unattainable.
To dream when hope is gone.
To strive for dreams remaining.
To die when strive’s too long.
To wish for things unseen.
To believe that wishes come true.
To pray when beliefs are tarnished.
To die when praying is through.
To live for days gone by.
To struggle when living gets rough.
To get going when it’s not worth the struggle.
To die when the going gets tough.

Gold beneath my feet
crunching as I cross the yard
to get the paper.

Jeremy Mallett Poem
Mirror in the bathroom,
this makes no sense.
Like the glass top table
in the room I rent,
or my credit card
with numbers white as snow,
the straw cut down
an eighth its size.
Our love affair is growing old
but I know you're in control.
She don't lie, she don't lie,
She don't lie to you,
so Clapton says,
but we both know
you're my only friend,
and with you I'll wind up dead.

Jeremy Mallett Poem
Deep inside I find a place
somewhere within my heart.
A place I like to go some days
when everything is dark.
A place of hope that has no fear,
a place inside my soul.
But then one day it all leaked out,
in the bottom, I found a hole.
