POEMS AND SHORT STORIES
Poet Introduction
just trying to keep it simple...love laugh and give...peace
T.L.C.
Sometimes I'm just so damm busy
can't even come up for air
8:00 p.m. just got home
hungry as a bear
looking in the cupboards
empty and bare
open the fridge
nothing there
WTF
life ain't fair.
Look!...over there
on the counter
it's a pear
growing hair
oh death is near
if I dare
shit...I need some tender loving care.

Inner-Peace
Beads of sweat
rolling down my back
some say I'm insane...
Feeling the freedom
right foot, left foot
cold, wind, hot sun, rain...
Yearning, churning, burning
mind against body.
What can I gain?
Huffing and puffing, suffering
hitting that wall
only in my brain...
It all flows together
to taste the pleasure
gotta swallow the pain...
goals, challenges, conquest
nothing is...
rolling down my back
some say I'm insane...
Feeling the freedom
right foot, left foot
cold, wind, hot sun, rain...
Yearning, churning, burning
mind against body.
What can I gain?
Huffing and puffing, suffering
hitting that wall
only in my brain...
It all flows together
to taste the pleasure
gotta swallow the pain...
goals, challenges, conquest
nothing is...

No Fun in Clean
Let's play in the dirt
me and you
have some fun
roll around in the mud
mud so thick
and black
you can't tell what lies beneath
close our eyes
let's dive in
no fears,no excuses
no holding back
let's get dirty
from head to toe
let's have a go
you and me
rolling in the mud,
just good clean fun.
*wrote this in response to a comment made by the lovely and wise Petit_Minou...all in good clean fun :)

In the End
I want it to be clean
nothing to be seen
no one to walk in
and find my mortal sin
go ahead,look and see
what's inside of me
shiny as gold
no secrets to be told
flip that rug if you must
there'll be no dust
open the closet if you will
you won't find "Jack"...or Jill.

Side Stepping Mr. D
Is that you
Mr D
your dark eyes
hollowed out pits
looking at me.
I see you
standing there.
Scythe in hand
hour glass hanging
time to harvest
my soul
Mr D.
Waiting for me
icy cold breath
filling the room
chilling my bones
your deafening silence
screaming in the wind
whispering my name
you reach out
grabbing for me
I...

Colors
I want to be your red
your pink,yellow and blue.
I want to be
every color to you.
Every color you can imagine
every color you wear,
close your eyes
I want to be there.
I want to be your
full white moon at night
your red-orange sky in the morning
holding you so tight.
Holding you so close
red,orange,green,blue,
black and white,every color
melting together...that's me and you.

Only Tomorrows
Oh, how I remember
the first kiss you gave me
soft upon my lips
sweetness on my buds
filling me with sunshine
blooming flowers in my head
tulips, roses, daffodils and more
colors like a rainbow
flowing head to toe
erasing all my yesterdays...
leaving us with all our tomorrows.

Saying Your Name
What makes me smile...
a blue sky up above
a puppy licking my face
a butterfly floating in the breeze
a call from a friend
a ride on a pony
a smile from a stranger
a laughing baby
a pot of moms stew
a kiss on the cheek
a tickle in the ribs
a hug from the kids
a ride on the merry-go-round
a chocolate chip ice cream cone
a cool breeze on a summer day...
but the one thing
that really makes me smile
is just saying your name.

Peace 2 U...
No more
can't do.
You use to be the tops
now ya just knots.
Use to enjoy you
now it's left over stew.
Want to embrace all
and not bust balls.
Give love and hope
stay off the dope.
But hey you know...it's
like an accident.

The Speck...
What is that?
It's a speck
right there
on the floor.
It looks like a giraffe,
or maybe Jesus,
no,maybe a plane.
I stare at it
the little speck.
Is it even there?
I think it's moving
no it's not
shit it's getting bigger,
is it moving again?
No it's just a speck
I stare some more
at the speck on the floor,
and then I think...
Am I the speck?

The Bad
You and me
two different people
we go out
break bread together
hang out together
play some pool maybe
and talk some shit.
Truth,understanding,love,admiration,trust.
Feeling memories,sharing secrets and releasing dreams
you say things with such conviction
you tell me things
I truly believe
you look me straight in the eyes
and never blink.
Throw in a few drinks
and before you know it
all that love and trust
turns into desire and lust
feeling the need to...
