POEMS AND SHORT STORIES
Poet Introduction
No experience whatsoever. Just have a need to express myself at times. Sometimes an idea or word stick in my head until I explore with it on paper.

Sweetland
The smell of a kiss
Rustling leaves
Walls of rain
Embracing snow
Sharpness of edges become more rounded in reflection
Rich dark soil and matching storm clouds
Shake the house thunder and dancing blue lightning
The faces
The chirping of a voice
All the voices
Sweetland
Rustling leaves
Walls of rain
Embracing snow
Sharpness of edges become more rounded in reflection
Rich dark soil and matching storm clouds
Shake the house thunder and dancing blue lightning
The faces
The chirping of a voice
All the voices
Sweetland

Balls
his dream
balls balls and more balls
matzah balls fish balls swedish meat balls
open a restaurant that serves nothing but balls
forget the balls
stay with us
love the children
no balls
i will love the children
and i will stay
no balls for me
except in my dream
balls balls and more balls
matzah balls fish balls swedish meat balls
open a restaurant that serves nothing but balls
forget the balls
stay with us
love the children
no balls
i will love the children
and i will stay
no balls for me
except in my dream

Blind Boy Dancing With a Cane
Blind boy dancing with a cane violent swaying
Feels everything every beat
Let’s you know he is here
Knows every word every song
Knows every note piano man
Dances alone doesn’t care
Knows you by name by smell or sound
Goes by Ivan de la roach
Blind boy dancing with a cane sees everything
Feels everything every beat
Let’s you know he is here
Knows every word every song
Knows every note piano man
Dances alone doesn’t care
Knows you by name by smell or sound
Goes by Ivan de la roach
Blind boy dancing with a cane sees everything

Looking Up
I see you sitting down there.
Legs crossed like you have all the time in the world.
Sometimes I wonder what you’re thinking.
I tried it once myself,
but all I could think about was coming up for air.
I don’t know how you do it, sitting down there minute after minute.
Does it hurt?
Do your lungs ache to draw in a deep breath?
I see you blowing bubbles,
so, it must not be hurt.
I hope it doesn’t.
Do you sit in that shimmering wet cocoon to escape from the noise of the world?
With legs and arms floating above your head. ...
