POEMS AND SHORT STORIES
Marriage
Our souls
Ever changing
Yours and mine
Together for a moment
May we ever remain?
What can I do
To do what I can
To keep us in unison?
Ever changing
Yours and mine
Together for a moment
May we ever remain?
What can I do
To do what I can
To keep us in unison?

Fat Momma
Cookies are my favorite treat;
Chocolate chip, warm and sweet.
Momma makes them when I'm sad,
When I'm good,
When I'm mad.
Momma loves me this I know,
'Cuz food's her favorite thing,
So when I'm hurt, scraped my knee,
Cookies tell me she loves me.
Chocolate chip, warm and sweet.
Momma makes them when I'm sad,
When I'm good,
When I'm mad.
Momma loves me this I know,
'Cuz food's her favorite thing,
So when I'm hurt, scraped my knee,
Cookies tell me she loves me.

Soul Mates
I'm too old,
You're too young
For it to ever matter.
What could have been,
Or should have been,
I believe the latter.

What could have been,
Or should have been,

The Expert
Usefulness has never been a quality of mine.
I'm much better suited for trying out the wine.
Folding laundry takes me hours,
Washing dishes is a bore.
How much do I really care about the kitchen floor?
Sipping tea and tasting treats to me is just sublime.
Though reading in a hammock is where I really shine.
So, if you need your lawn mowed,
Or your house cleaned,
Or your car towed;
If you need a handyman,
Or help washing your minivan;
Please don't be offended when politely I decline...
But call on me if you need help learning to...

Orange Creamsicle
I love to lick you up and down,
Sometimes all the way around.
Faster, faster
To the center.
Dripping, dripping
Yum.

Ashamed
Dirty Words.
Dirty thoughts float through my mind.
I must be dirty,
Need to clean up before sharing
My soul
With you.

Thanksgiving
I feel at home
With all of you.
I'm very new
Sharing my soul,
Hiding my face.
It's hard to do,
Transparency.
Deep underground,
A speakeasy for me.
Secretly sharing
Maybe one day
I will be brave;
Reveal in the light
All that I am...
Until then
With all of you.

All that I am...

New Kinda Life
Run, run
Go, go
Faster, faster
Can't stop
Hurry, hurry
Huff, puff
Work, work
Produce, produce
Buy, buy
Consume, consume
Die
Go, go
Faster, faster
Can't stop
Hurry, hurry
Huff, puff
Work, work
Produce, produce
Buy, buy
Consume, consume
Die

Greed Be Us
We are all greedy bastards,
Every single one.
In your mansion,
False eyelashes,
Plastic parts to make you feel
Whole.
Religious fanatics,
Moral superiority a lie.
God to make it all seem right.
And I,
Trying to survive-
Deceiving even myself.
The devil we run from,
Ourselves.
If we had a heart at all,
We couldn't be content to live
Children hunger, people suffer.
We give 10 percent,
Pat ourselves on the back,
Sleep tight.
Every single one.
