POEMS AND SHORT STORIES
Poet Introduction
A lot of my poetry has to do with alienation, rejection, loneliness, suicide, mercy fucks, shyness and social justice.

The Clocks Will Tick
To be one of them, I so dream
But, unattainable it seems
I will never enter their clique
So long as all the clocks will tick.
Oh, I try - but I'm the outcast
My destiny, the die is cast
They just look at me like I'm thick
So long as all the clocks will tick.
I'll never know what it is like
To be popular, and well-liked
Want me locked up, they think I'm sick
So long as all the clocks will tick.
I guess I'll drop out of the game
Doesn't matter, they think the same
Try to be nice, I'm still the...

'Who Am I?'
Granted
Who am I to
Judge her quick decisions
About selling her hot body
To men.
She could
Have been abused
At the hands of a man
Very early on in her life
If so.
She could
Have been the 'slut'
At her large junior college
And thinks that is all she's good for
Pleasure.
Or she
Could well just be
Liberated and free
Comfortable with her package
Who knows?
I know
I'm not perfect
I am not one to judge
Everybody has their story
Johns too.

Deathbed Colors
He turned the charm on when he wanted --
Brother, supporter, keeper and friend.
But when illness struck he wasn't there:
Not so much a note, he didn't care.
Some family thought him a bit odd -
When we dismissed as poor sods.
Who everyone thought he was, wasn't --
Nice at face but looked at as peasants.
Who would have thought his own family:
Was the circle he'd make enemies.
Death is the great equalizer -
But also the greatest exposer.
Funny how around death bluntness comes --
It's just a house when we...

Thanks To You
Thanks to you
For making me feel cool
Picking me up when I'm blue 🔵⬆🆙⬆🎉
Feeling less lonely too
All thanks to you.
Thanks to you
For being my crescent moon 🌙
Seeing genius in a fool
Feeling much better too
All thanks to you.
I don't have to be a count 🙇🚫🙇
Nor have a big bank account 💶🚫💳
Or have fame with my name
You love me all the same 💏
And are still my partner in crime 👨💣👩

The Paczki Tradition
In the costume I felt much more like a freak
Thought, what did I sign up for, not my diction
Then they explained it as I gave them Paczkis
I finally got it, and gone was friction
Handed out donuts proud at the bakery
They showed me what history was all about
And then my gaiety came to fruition
I helped keep alive The Paczki Tradition!

'Till Death When We Part
Time is marching on
Do people notice?
Nor getting younger
Just growing older
Parents who gave themselves
For their offspring
Raising us
Unselfishly providing
The inevitable will come one day
As they approach their golden years
And mine
What will become of me
When they pass on?
Will I belong to the State?
Or fade, lost!
And I know
They cannot live forever
On my mind more
When in my late thirties
They gave me guidance
And so much in life
Nor did they ever
Cut my...
