Memories of Ben
He’s ten years old
Pokemon hyper-focused
Quoting statistics I can’t comprehend
All I can remember is Pikachu
While he’s all over it
Glued to the television set
Eyes alight with childlike joy
Consumed by an obsession
I just nod and agree with
Lost somewhere in the upgrades
And it’s all about red cars
Specifically convertibles
Counting every one we pass
His hands pressed against
The car window in delight
Which is better than the constant
“Are we there yet?”
When he’s bored and...

Mental Health Connection
It's me again the story teller of unspoken words ✍️ For let's take a moment to analyze what others are dealing with in their own life. For sure we can't ignore the truth of the facts, about metal illness for sure it may affect, families and friends and people who we are close with in our lives. Yet we are still not sure why so many people's, lives on a daily basis is living on so many, levels of unstable with conditions with situations.

Thoughts of August
Looking out the window and staring at my thoughts as the teacher mumbles something about Mitochondria. Why can't I find a desk that does not have gum attached to the bottom of it?
As I try to concentrate on the teacher it hits me like a ton of bricks - we need milk at home. My teacher is now talking about the nucleus of the cell and it is not lost on me that this class feels like a different kind of cell.I think the board of education should introduce my xbox as part of the curriculum. i could probably pass that class with a solid B+.

The Ballad Of No-Man Pam
Let me start by saying
I liked her.
It was as simple as that.
There were billions of people in the world,
and I liked maybe five,
but she was one—
complex and undignified,
farted with meaning in her beat-up car,
as the fog rolled in
and you were never entirely sure
where menthol vape met air biscuit.
We swam once a week together,
poured ourselves into awkward Lycra
and willed each other towards water.
Shy of babysitters, her...
