POEMS AND SHORT STORIES
How, What, Where and Why?
I asked myself why am I so depressed?
And why can’t I get out of bed?
Do I think I need to find a shrink?
What’s going on inside my fucking head?!
Why don’t I care if I brush my hair?
Why don’t I still like to have sex?
How come I was so stupid to lose my home?
How come I blamed that on my ex?
Why does my mind think I’m still 35?
How come I hate to look at myself in the mirror?
Has time always flown this fast?
Is getting old something I will always fear?
What happened to all my friends I once had? ...
And why can’t I get out of bed?
Do I think I need to find a shrink?
What’s going on inside my fucking head?!

Why don’t I still like to have sex?
How come I was so stupid to lose my home?
How come I blamed that on my ex?
Why does my mind think I’m still 35?
How come I hate to look at myself in the mirror?
Has time always flown this fast?
Is getting old something I will always fear?
What happened to all my friends I once had? ...

Depends - is this called fun?
I have a bad terminal disease
There’s no cure to make it go away
It’s been here since the beginning of man
so I think it’s destined to stay.
Being both mental and physical
The disease is called unique
Not being able to stop it at all
Remember - 50 years is called antique.
For me, it started the other morning
As I took a good look in the mirror
Seeing lines drawn all over my face
“need my glasses to see this shit clearer!”
My hair was turning a lighter color
And looking kinky like pubic hairs do
And I could see I was...

My Angel Doggy
Going through a bad time of my life
I spotted you there on line
I decided right then you were the one
I begged the people, they said “okay fine!”
“If you can get here within a half an hour
I’ll tell the other people he is now gone”
You were only 5 min. away
To live with me where you belong.
You were so little – a little furball
I knew it was fate - meant to be
I didn’t know how I could hide you from him
If I brought a dog home, he would leave me.
Since he was the source of my unhappiness
And you brought a smile to my sad face
I think I...

Narcissistic Roller Coaster
Hey, I built you this roller coaster
and I want to take you for a ride.
Secure your belt and hold on tight
you’re gonna wish you would have died!”
“I think you are beautiful, you’re the one for me”
As the cart slowly climbs to the top
Tells you everything you’ve always wanted to hear
you wish this ride was never going to stop.
You find yourself upside down
then high up as it climbs once again,
this time it descends at a quicker pace,
hey life is full of ups and downs with a friend.
He always takes more than you can give
As you honor him...

My generation
Oh us poor baby boomers
All we seem to do is complain
We’ve had it the easiest of all
Other generations wish they had it the same
We’ve taken everything there is
Abused it til it became a law
Others nit picked everthing to death
Now nothing can have even one flaw!
Way back In high school
were some of the best days
Teachers used to party with us
No one went to jail if we were to get laid.
One year we got a Christmas tree
We traded for a lid of pot
It was a total of 4 fingers
Back then is what one got.
Then another time at the...

Dear God
Please dear God
I really need You in my life
I need You by my side
To end all of this strife.
I found me a job
One that I can do
And they want me to work
It’s one of the very few
But now I have a dark cloud
That is hanging over my head
My past is here to haunt me
it’s something I do dread
You know in Your heart
I am one of Your good sheep
And You know my heart
my love always runs deep.
But I lied to the man
And told him I’ve been good
If I had told him the truth
He might have gotten rude.
So I’m asking for Your...

Limp Weenies or Dead Puppies?
Limp weenies and dead puppies
Are just about the same
They don’t do anything but lay there
They are a no win sort of game
When it comes to a dead puppy
They can still look kinda cute
a limp weenie looks like a wrinkled worm
That’s something no one can refute.
A dead puppy can still smell clean
A limp weenie more like a fish
Which one would I rather have
Neither can I make another wish?
Limp dicks also come with a surprise
Attached to it is a man
If he wants his weenie to work
You’re expected to lend him a hand.
Whereas dead...

Friend or Foe
FRIEND OR FOE?
I’m suppose to believe you
you don’t keep your word
how can I trust you
It’s not funny it’s absurd!
I may take my time
I might be a little slow
My words are always true
They don’t come from down below.
You see I don’t have a problem
Even if the truth is ugly and rude
Then I have no right to have one
I’ll change my fucked up attitude.
You got to understand something
When you’re not honest with me
Nothing will ever come from this
How it is now, is the way it will be.
You told me to stop my plans
You promised...

Liar Liar
You lie about this
You lie about that
You lie to yourself
You got yourself believing that you’re not fat.
Lying shows disrespect
Lying is fucking rude
If you told the truth just once
you could change your fucked up attitude.
Everything is bullshit
Is always a fucking lie
I call it oral diarrhea
Understand? Now you can see why.
When shit comes spewing forth
And you want to talk to me
Why should I talk to you?
You’re a waste of my time you see.
You think no one sees through
All the lies you have told
You lie when you don’t...
You lie about that

You got yourself believing that you’re not fat.
