Rona...leave me the f**k alone-a
Stepping on a gravestone
reaching for a wishbone
feeling like Kevin from "Home Alone"
social distancing with the gnomes.
Standing in the "Drop Zone"
putting out orange cones,
watching for the Amazon drone
to bring some TP home.
Screaming out to the unknown
hanging with "Hambone-Hambone"
playing our trombones
waiting for Sylvester Stallone.
Listen ya old crone,
you smell like Grandma's cologne
and a grey-haired kidney stone...
"Leave me the Fuck Alone".

OH WAIT ! (there's an angel at my door)
Please
somebody
hold my hand,
I'm here
in this room
alone
things seem a bit foggy
where's my family
where's my wife
my kids
where's my brother
very foggy, very dull.
Where are my loved ones ?
I'm alone, all alone
Oh Wait ! ...outside the door
there's a nurse and a doctor
here comes the nurse
I can only see her eyes
they look so beautiful
full of love
she takes my hand
and holds it tight
my angel...
by my side
I close my eyes.

Jesse James Wore A Mask
I am broke, spent, empty
I have no more emotional cash
in my bank account
you have drained it all
took everything
left me with nothing
you came in and robbed it
grabbed what you could
then walked out the door
slammed it shut behind you
I am empty
I am spent
broken... 💔

Summer Squash
my mom
had a picture
of summer yellow squash
hanging on the wall
I saw it in the morning
I saw it in the afternoon
I saw it at night
it was there
every day, every year... always
and everyday at a certain time
the sun hit it just right
the sweet rays made it sparkle
the summer yellow squash
they shined like the sun
it was amazing
so full of warmth
full of magic
full of love
mom...

Feel The Beat
It's in your heart,
wisdom and truth
love and hope
compassion and courage
peace and eternity
let it lead,follow it

and know, where love is...
Jesus is.

Bullseye
I remember running
I remember being scared
So scared
I didn't mean it,
it was all in fun
all part of the game.
The dare,
that's what we would do
but then it hit
it was like an explosion
Boom-Bang-Pow-What now ?
Run
run fast
Go...do not stop
I remember running.

Today
had to cry today
had too many tears
welled up inside
soaking my body
i was waterlogged
had to let them flow
fall from my eyes
down my cheeks
all the way to the ground
so many tears
had to cry today
had too many tears
welled up inside
soaking my body
i was waterlogged
had to let them flow
fall from my eyes
down my cheeks
all the way to the ground
so many tears
had to cry today

Purple Sunsets
One day
it could be
I won't even know you
one day
you will hold my hand in yours
one day
you might ask "Do you know me?"
and without a blink,
maybe I'll say "no sir I don't know you"
maybe I'll stare into space,
maybe I'll smile
maybe I'll say to you
"you're a fine young man"
and then maybe I'll say
"you're father must be proud"
maybe...
I won't say anything.

Manny's Homemade Kale Soup
As I slurped a heaping spoonful into my mouth
my head started spinning
my heart started pounding
my nose wiggled and giggled
and my taste buds exploded...
smashing all over the inside of my mouth.
My eyes closed,
my head rolled
my tongue danced
and my stomach applauded.
Breathing deep
and letting out sounds of joy
all I could say was
" Yummy,Yum-Yum".

Tender is the Night
she danced with
one eye on her beer
sang whenever she wanted to
and smoked until she choked
gave all her spare change
to the alley cats
and the mangy mutts
had a heart of gold
and punched like Rocky Marciano
give her a boilermaker
and a pack of Chesterfields
she'd have your back forever
mystery and pain
on the inside
bold and fearless
on her skin
like sunshine and midnight together
lost...but she knew where she was
one eye on her beer
sang whenever she wanted to
and smoked until she choked
gave all her spare change
to the alley cats
and the mangy mutts
had a heart of gold
and punched like Rocky Marciano
give her a boilermaker
and a pack of Chesterfields
she'd have your back forever
mystery and pain
on the inside
bold and fearless
on her skin
like sunshine and midnight together
lost...but she knew where she was

Alleluia !
come and feel
a new dawn
a new sun
a new light
the stone was rolled
the chains broken
fear no more
death is conquered
Christ has risen
Alleluia, Alleluia !
a new dawn
a new sun
a new light
the stone was rolled
the chains broken
fear no more
death is conquered
Christ has risen
Alleluia, Alleluia !
