peace is not the
absence
of
discomfort
or
pain
in
life
real peace is the
wisdom
of
adapting
to
the
discomfort
and
pain

today, president Trump
visited West (by God)
Virginia to rally his base
he told the crowd that
W.V. is producing
record breaking numbers
he's right
West Virginia is number
one in opioid deaths in
America
yea...

control
you can't change
people
circumstances

situations

that's a relief
pulled up behind an
SUV at a red light
it had a Trump sticker
on it's back window
that read
"NO SHIT HOLE
IMMIGRANTS"
went home and
googled the latest
world map
couldn't locate any
country called,
"SHIT HOLE," anywhere
on the earth
guess we're safe for
now

now that's funny
the worst part
of aging is that
time allows you
to remember what
you were...
and laughs
at what you have
become

it is better to be
broken in two by
revolution than
to die in our sleep
by civility and comfort
8.
on the roof, the
splash of moonbeams
falling hard
wine gone
two candles sit
cold,
unattended
notebook empty
the world gives no
notice

the wind plays songs
of
loneliness
blues for the
sun
6.
when I die,
be there
take my hand,
lean close
whisper
that my life
was a poem
worth writing

of
loneliness
blues for the
sun

when I die,
be there
take my hand,
lean close
whisper
that my life
was a poem
