POEMS AND SHORT STORIES
Poet Introduction
Sometimes I think with both heads. No, I’m not sorry.
Journeys Around The Sun
I never wanted the wrinkles
But they are creasing
I never wanted the gray hair
But like weeds in the grass
They grow like wildfire
Aches and pains
And I get no younger
But as I take my fifty third journey
Around the sun
I unequivocally resolve
Though the beauty of my youth
Extends further and further away
The fire within burns brighter
With each new day
Fifty three is not the new twenty three
Fifty three is not the new thirty three
Fifty three is...
But they are creasing
I never wanted the gray hair
But like weeds in the grass
They grow like wildfire
Aches and pains
And I get no younger
But as I take my fifty third journey
Around the sun
I unequivocally resolve
Though the beauty of my youth
Extends further and further away
The fire within burns brighter
With each new day
Fifty three is not the new twenty three
Fifty three is not the new thirty three
Fifty three is...

Sitting on the couch, in the living room
Listening to Magic In Your Eyes by Chaka Khan
Consuming nothing more than the gray ambient light
Of the December day
It’s these nostalgic moments
That brings me back
To the days of dreaming what
My leisure as a grown up would be
In 1977 it was a blue cassette tape
In 2022 it’s a streaming service
The technology has changed
So has the sound quality
Hair is more gray
I weigh more
The portal between then and now
Remains inextricable

Morning
As the midnight hours fade
The sky begins to brighten.
The sun is not fully up yet.
It has yet to make its way
Over the horizon.
As time goes by
You rigidly toss in your slumber.
Close to awakening
But not fully there;
You unconsciously attempt to adjust
Your growing tumescence.
Frustrated by your failed attempts
You awaken to your chagrin
As well as your elation.
You remember why I brought you here.
Fettered
And unable to relieve
The throbbing
Of the rise of the sun...

Frustrated by your failed attempts

As well as your elation.

And unable to relieve
The throbbing
Of the rise of the sun...

Crack of Dawn
My sun always rises
For the crack of dawn.
For the crack of dawn.

Whose Day Is it
You can piss in my cornflakes
If you like.
I'll just open up
This box of Cheerios.
Thank you!

Flashback 2020
The world is on the brink
Of a massive pandemic.
People hurry in a panic
To protect themselves
From a deadly virus.
They scramble to
The nearest grocery store
To buy the one thing
That can save them
From such a forbidding fate.
Toilet paper.
That's right.
Toilet paper.
I am not sure
If I will survive this wave.
But at least my ass will be clean.
Of a massive pandemic.
People hurry in a panic
To protect themselves
From a deadly virus.
They scramble to
The nearest grocery store
To buy the one thing
That can save them
From such a forbidding fate.
Toilet paper.
That's right.
Toilet paper.
I am not sure
If I will survive this wave.
But at least my ass will be clean.

Sunshine
Just because it’s raining outside
Doesn’t mean that the sun
Cannot shine.
Make your own sunshine.
Doesn’t mean that the sun
Cannot shine.
Make your own sunshine.
