I write for fun... but mostly for peace of mind.
I write to set them free--the stories trapped in my head begging to be told.
I dress them in strings of letters and words that humans can relate to
and then release them to speak for themselves...

The Sting

Aha,
May I remind you of the song you sang The day we first met?

Oh … You forgot What blatant exhibition of guts Hope you fought those guts.

Uhmmm
Remember those stammers Like unrhymed pounding of a thousand hammers?
Wait,

What prompted Those bloated promises Infected with osteoporosis?

Now you fight nemesis Returning from Exodus back to Genesis While still standing in my premises.

I still remember That beautiful fall, When I gave you my all Making you look really tall

Then
Confident you’d never fall You began to walk in the wrong hall. Now you’d better pray And beg for that warming ray

For its going to get really cold You know you can’t take it when you are old Don’t say you weren’t told.

By the way
Why do you now so heavily pant? Aren’t you still wearing the pants? Or have they started crawling up — I mean the ants? Wait, wait till you hear their deafening chant.

Don’t dare so early to faint
I’d hurry get the paint We’d re-spray the tent You’d repay your tenth Hopefully we’d regain our client

You’d re-sing that song You’d re-make that promise Then we’d re———

Why

Why must I?
Why must I pay the price For all the lies, That are hidden in cursed files And shrouded by pregnant flies.

Now you force me to walk on these slippery tiles, Beg me to dance on straight lines While warning me to stay away from wild fires That threaten to severe all of my valuable ties

ruff! ruff! ruff! ruff!

Packed up

So
I packed up my bag And wrapped up my world….what was left of it. Jumped over the wall And Landed in the middle of a war, A bitter war.

And there! A gun in the hand of a priest, His left foot on the bible, And his breath foul from the stench of death.

So i packed up my world And wrapped up my war, Crawled under the fence And emerged in the middle of the ocean, Deep blue ocean!

And there!
Tons of drowning fishes begging to be rescued, Swimming dogs hurrying to shore, And fishing nets full of decaying men.

So I packed up my packing, Wrapped up my wrangling, And headed to shore.

And there!
There, laid in wait My old bag, My old world, my old war. Sitting side by side waiting for me.

This Curse

This curse,
The cause of which I am deluded Has it roots in the fine printed clauses of life’s manual, Bent on running its full course Burying its Jagged claws In the flesh of those cursed.

Lost, I paused And prayed for a recourse, Engrossed in my search While enclosed in the walls of my self imposed prison

Never wanting to be exposed, I posed to hide my tears, Determined to sit on my fears, Plugging my ears While waiting for the promised pair.

But still unable to afford my fare, I cried! Please spare me, Spare me…spare me…spare me! Oh God!
