February 14th

Priest
      in Rome
Very long long ago

Beaten to death
        and
Cut off his head

On this very day
     He died
     that way

The rose red blood
           of
    St. Valentine

Before the Cradle Falls

Bitten

The wind has sharpened teeth

Flesh can scream

Never the same

Unforgettable pain

Empathy in action

The Saxton the Saxton

Turned!

Mia Mia

Mia Mia, What did you do?
You know I never met a  like you.
Oh Mia Mia!
Why don't you settle down now?
Settle Down.
Me and Mia Mia
Doggin days of summer,
You know I love you Mia. Why don't you come here and lay down?
Oh Mia Mia!
When's Daddy coming back around?
You know I hate to leave you Mia but I ain't comin back now how.
You get excited when I walk in the door.
He could care less, so why the hell do I come for?
I want a love him I guess he gets enough from you,
He don't want all I have to give him;
He just wants some,
Yeah that's truth.
Oh Mia Mia
I guess I don't have any shame.
Yeah, well maybe just alittle,
And I ain't havin fun so I'm not goin to play
I Said I ain't havin no fun
So I ain't goin to play.

Habits

That ain’t me
That ain’t me 
I’ve got habits, I can’t beat
You ain’t one
Hit the street
I’ve got a habit
That ain’t you , guess it’s me
Yeah it’s me

I’ve got a habit of staying at home
Smoking all night 
and talking on the phone
but not to you though
Because you ain’t my habit no more
Not no more!

So what or who’m I going to do?
What’m I going to wear?
Should I cut, straighten, dye or
curl my hair?
That ain’t the habit 
I mean, I keep it clean
But I’m only reading 
I ain’t in the magazines
I got some habits and they’re not you
Not enough time too much to do
I’m making a lot of habits baby
But not a one of them is you
Leave me be

That ain’t me
That ain’t me
Keep it moving 
Let me be
Stop making me your habit
I told you quit/(that s) bothering me
and leave me be.

I’m not goin to tell anybody 
How I think they should see me
Instead I’ll just keep 
This one habit I have
Of just being me!

Diet soda
Bubblegum 
Pickin my nose
I know it sounds snotty
Man everyone does
My feet are bare and dirty
And sometimes I still suck my thumb
I got habits

I’ve got a habit and it ain’t you
I got a habit of singing the blues
Go and find another habit
Get something else to do
That ain’t me.

That ain’t me
That ain’t me
I’ve got habits I can’t beat
You ain’t one hit the street 
I’ve got a habit
It ain’t you cause it’s me
Yeah it’s me

My Heart

Things are really different now
There's something going on
Mama's usually quiet she isn't quiet anymore
And you know how it is when mama starts yelling
You better start listening or something will be swelling
My Heart
She said, " Mama why you gotta be so loud?"
My Heart 
She said,  "why you gotta be so loud?"
Keep writing, reading, listen, singing, playing
Baby I'll just keep on praying
Your heart stays just as full as it is proud
My heart
Tell me why you have to beat so loud
My Heart
Tell me why you gotta beat soo LOOuud
I'll keep reading, writing, listening, singing and playing ...  yeah
You know I'll keep on praying
Grateful to God my heart's so full
 and of that I'm proud

Sing and Prune

Juniper June
You know, your berries are showing
Juniper you might not see what everyone else seems to know
here
Let me help you out June
Man July came to soon
You were beautiful June

Bottled

Drivel in a puddle
Cried my tears
The bowl is dry
The water is a wonder we all need there is no why
The water is life 
The life is for the all
We can not keep our pigeon read
We only seam to fall 
There is a crawl up a way side
There is a demon in the tree
You should not question every feeling , the sky is the ceiling 
This is only a dream
Nothing is as it seems and it will never be so
Only one time
Sometime 
Can I begin 
From where I started from?
The lord is a word
The meaning is old
The vulture’s a bird 
Not one scrap left for thee
Me? I see you 
I can be beneath you
In the clouds 
catching your shine
Not mine. No
Mine is a long soft wave
The song of a swan 
The honk of a goose in my feathers 
Warm like the hot water bottle by my feet
The crickets make sounds that I will never forget
Chirping us all to sleep until the next season comes
The high tides 
The Bay of Fundy
The rocks show early
The fish swim sparkling
The same as we all keep moving and shining in our own way.
Everything is all the same in a way that it isn’t at all
Separately equal only makes sense as a philosophy 
But everything is equally absurd 
Before the lightning strikes
Before the crow caws in the morning 
The mist is thicker than the shaving cream my Papa never used
My goat is bearded 
The lamp is lit
The fire is cracking 
My fun is never a lack
I have sight to see
I have sounds to hear 
My touch is connected to my brain
It is shocking
The memory
The strange details
The inability to forget 
The chore of remembering 
Not as delightful as the chores of a farm
My old body is going
I wish it wouldn’t take you so long
This experience has filled me
To burst into an entire new Universe

A POEM

By: C.M. Charron





Reading the News



Opened, or Closed? 

Blue like a corpse?

or

Pink as a rose?

Under my clothes;

It all is exposed.

My self is discarded

along with the rest .... undone ......

My best.

My choice?

My TRAUMA!

My inadequacies 

Not like a virgin mother.

After then the blood regular
a river flowing of tears EVERYTIME

Frantic  shame

fear and guilt

Patches in my Quilt, e.d armor

Falling down

down down down

farther. The HIT

This FIT! to fit

My dishonor as a woman

My womb in

men’s hands

Desecration , mutilation,
preservation and restoration
of

TIME. 

Wishes and wants (sigh)
intention the prevention.
Here! here take it already!!!

Here? Hear this!

HISSSSS , I heard 
The call and the sacrifice is mine
A prayer to God
That is yours that there isn’t shame
My king is a kind judge
A patient master of love 
Who are you to me?

Pain stained and I remember not in vane ,
to keep had been a crueler game.


With life this cycle and this time disadvantaged.

The chance is

for who? Not YOU!

Mr. Lawmaking  man , listen to my heart beat!

See ME and every other sister, my brother!

As your daughter, your mother not just some OTHER

in this place HERE, these fears.

You  can not. You have no ears and you are blind.

Both your crimes

Not mine

I must not forgive you
That is what GOD does 
That Spirit alone
The Angel at home 
The wound to my soul 
Against the nature 
One day in the eternal
We will meet

Baton Kids

A baton
A stick
A kid
A wish
A magic wand
A swish swish swish
A batonkid
Hanging on the street
And in the yard
Life is sweet
