Daughters
She can
because she believes she can
My job is to get out of her way
And sometimes push her
When she forgets
She can

My job is to get out of her way
And sometimes push her
When she forgets

AA
AA
It's easy to get drunk off
Those first kisses
Then came more
Penetrations of the skin
Run deep
Asphyxiation is intolerable
Forcing clothes to the floor
Only to be reclaimed in the shameful aftermath
What had it been
Her laughter
The way her hand fit in mine
Like we'd known each other an eternity
And not merely a day
This had to be
Real
This time ...
It's easy to get drunk off
Those first kisses
Then came more
Penetrations of the skin
Run deep
Asphyxiation is intolerable
Forcing clothes to the floor
Only to be reclaimed in the shameful aftermath
What had it been
Her laughter
The way her hand fit in mine
Like we'd known each other an eternity
And not merely a day
This had to be

Fear Less Maddi
Papi says be fearless
In everything I do
That I can be a great person
But I wonder if that's true
He says, See that girl there
Standing up to that huge bull
She's staring him right in the eye
Hair tossed back her heart is full
I ask him is he ever scared
He gives a sigh and starts to think
There were my times of doubt
Like my first time in an ice rink
There was the time as a boy I drove a huge truck
Through the streets of New York City
I dived in a pool but couldn't swim
Then...
In everything I do
That I can be a great person
But I wonder if that's true
He says, See that girl there
Standing up to that huge bull
She's staring him right in the eye
Hair tossed back her heart is full
I ask him is he ever scared
He gives a sigh and starts to think
There were my times of doubt
Like my first time in an ice rink

... more lullabies for Maddi ...
Grandma told Mami I'd be born
under the light of a full moon
That I'd make swirls in the Milky Way
with just a swish of my spoon
Now I pluck stars from above to make my black hair glow
I blow kisses to the rain because they make the flowers grow
Then I go rescue the lost little worms who move to slow
I tickle the sun for making my skin chocolate brown
Then I rearrange the stars in my hair to form a crown
Papi says I'll go to Australia
so Uncle D will teach me to surf ...

I tickle the sun for making my skin chocolate brown
