POEMS AND SHORT STORIES
Lately
Lately
I've tried desperately to delete me.
I guess it's not really up to me
to successfully destroy what did not create.
Truly
I do not take this life lightly.
O.k. maybe I do slightly.
Because sometimes I feel like a mistake.
Forgive me
This is not the best side of me.
Only the side that really hates me.
On my soul it feeds and is never slaked.
Believe me
If I could control this I would be.
Because I'm not into hating me.
But now it's much too late.
For everything I hear and everything I see,
tells no...

Don't tell me goodbye
Looks as though I've lost my friend.
Seems she broke while trying to bend.
Thought we'd find a way to blend.
Together we would endure that dreadful sin.
But your shattered heart would not mend.
Don't tell me goodbye... again.
Broken Silence...we should have kept,
all the reasons that you wept.
Slipped right by me while I slept.
Didn't hear you as you left.
Now my broken heart shall not mend.
If you tell me goodbye... again.
Life is hard and often unfair.
Doesn't mean that no one cares.
Put the pills down get some...

No man of steel
I'm no man of steel,
But my heart is strong, my love real.
Into the air... I'm unable to fly,
But would take a bullet...
For you i'd die.
I can not see through walls or any such things at all,
But I'd surely catch you if you should fall.
I can not leap a tall building in a single bound,
But believe me, no harm shall come to you when I'm around.
I'm not strong enough to bend steel with my bare hands,
But I am strong enough to be your man.
While I do not possess laser beam eyes,
I do have two lips to kiss you tenderly, on this you can...
But my heart is strong, my love real.

Humanity unplugged
Why are hearts so disconnected?
Why is hate so persued and
love so neglected?
Why are smiles so rejected while a
grimace is thoroughly respected?
How is it that common courtesy
Is so hard to be projected?
When rudeness and pompousness
are praised and erected?
Why are good deeds and hard work scrutinized
and dissected?
When selfishness and greed are voted on and elected?
Why do the needs of the many go so undetected?
While the wants of the few are sought out and collected?
Why are the rights of some being constantly...

Something dead
I was talking to myself this morning.
Trying to figure out what it is that I am mourning.
Crazy thing is ...I awoke with this dread.
Something's gone from me...
Something's dead.
I told me "Stop it, don't think about it anymore!"
But I couldn't stop the hole that thought had already
begun to bore.
Into my very soul it had embossed.
A deep agonizing feeling of pain for something lost.
I couldn't shake it no matter how I tried.
Something was gone.
Something had died.
I attempted to smile and be happy, but to the sadness I'd succumb....

Lets hope to learn a lesson
Pondering the pace of life going down
on the worlds permanent erection
with a smile on her face showing no disgrace...
depravity to perfection.
From misguided direction, seek out protection,
find a love that's beyond mere affection.
This is reality, law verses morality,
Lets hope to learn a lesson.

Angry
Poor, poor angry soul.
What's the secret to your control?
Like Banner said staring blankly.
"There is no secret.... I'm always angry."
Angry about what the world has become.
Why society only favors some?
We are becoming a people without love.
Following the eagle instead of the dove.
Angry about the reason poverty thrives
Why the rich get richer like they're breaking out in hives?
Angry about our economy breaking down.
Doesn't matter who's fault it is...
White, Black, Yellow or...
