Needed Convo
Today I got a call from a old friend
How is it going how have you been
Just working, getting older and fat
Telling some stories a little some of this and that
How can I say I am not the same guy I used to be
I not the same guy you won’t know me when you see me
I lost people in my life from Death and relationships
Last I heard about you, you was going to war on a battleship
I am trying to gain my smile back
Not get really down when being attacked
How can I say I am trying to overcome depression
Worrying about what others think has...

A SPECIAL BOND
A special bond with someone you just met is amazing when you can, see and feel the energy of the vibes as you feel comfortable in each others skin. JUST between the two of us as, we look deep into each other's eye to eye and see the true character of what, we are building together a life by STEEL AND STONES. As we express our true inner intentions, with realness of desire for that is REAL AS IT GETS, JUST BECAUSE IT FEELS LIKE something. That we can cherish in the process of creating a real strong commitment, with real consistency and devotion and respect. For that is what it takes if we are...

Away
They will float away
Like boats
My beautiful flowers against the wind
To blooming fields
And open land
Promise I could never give
I am attached but I am not
If I cried, our bond would rot
And get misty stinking old
But I can’t blame
I’d do the same
Story is from where it’s told
Love‘s like a ticking bomb inside your brain
One crack - it all will change
But if you wait until it burns
You might die in its return
So I stand here and insist
Hold them happy, please
Give them love I couldn’t give
Like boats
My beautiful flowers against the wind
To blooming fields
And open land
Promise I could never give
I am attached but I am not
If I cried, our bond would rot
And get misty stinking old
But I can’t blame
I’d do the same
Story is from where it’s told
Love‘s like a ticking bomb inside your brain
One crack - it all will change
But if you wait until it burns
You might die in its return
So I stand here and insist
Hold them happy, please
Give them love I couldn’t give

I'm Glad My Friend Talked Me Into It
My best friend talked
me into
posing naked
for Hustler Beaver Hunt
and saw that I won more
than the grand prize for I
am now one of those Hustler Honeys.

Treasure
Treasure
I like looking at the moon
while we are talking on the phone
and you are looking at it too.
Things do not feel so alone.
In this way we are together
though we are very far apart.
Distance does not matter
to the spirit, to the heart.
You help me to be strong.
You give me hope when I am dying
and you will not accept my words
when I say I am done trying.
Sometimes you make me mad
but I know it is because you care
and that is what makes our friendship
one that is genuine to...

Screams Never Said
Remember that time you flirted with my ex”
Yet you fail to mention how you slept with mine.
How you gave me the “photography class” line.
“She walked up and told me”
You saw how he’d hold me
Close to his chest
Never making me feel second best.
“I heard there were more girls”
While I cried in the hall
Did you feel bad at all
“You know I liked him”
No, I really didn’t.
But I suppose you words couldn’t
Ever be wrong and so I believed,
Blocked him and went along
Just you and me. ...

Unloving
Unloving you is like skydiving.
I am so scared to do it, yet I’m already so high up, needing to jump.
Unloving you is like trying a new lipstick.
I’m scared to do it because what if people laugh or think I look stupid.
Unloving you is hard.
Because you were so close.
But I know I need to do it,
For fear of unloving myself if I choose not to.
Unloving myself would be nothing new.
Forgetting myself to take care of you.
Unloving those around me.
When I keep them like shields.
Surrounding myself in...

Roller Coasting
She was 56, her siblings were Disney villains, and the husband she'd waited a lifetime for pronounced her "undiagnosed bipolar" a mere three months into their marriage. The woman he left her for wasn't particularly young, thin, or pretty. No, his new wife, Karla, was infuriatingly easy going, a pediatric social worker who taught yoga on Saturdays.
Mary Jane had nothing but substitute teaching jobs, a great set of anodized cookware, a small, paid-off condo and $35,000 inherited from her beloved mother. Her life was easy to leave, and that's what she would do, for a while....

If the kindest souls were rewarded with the longest lives,
dogs would outlive us all.”—Anonymous
nor bark nor bite nor wagging of the tail
is why i sit here, waiting to exhale;
kennel defeat by flagrant emptiness
sickens my pooch-lorn spirit to excess.
caninic pain cuts deep—an eagle's claw
unsuturing my nerve ends in the raw:
how could night so conspire such wayward stealth
as robs me of contemporary wealth!
my doggone friend zilched pale as melted air,
with mastiff virtues...

Addictive tendencies and the art of not avoiding dog piss
I.
He was too fucked up to be the Best man
and just to prove her right,
he was late as an usher.
His head digested council estate chloroform's
hands trapped in the till, credit cards turned over in court,
slept on a bar stool, everyone's fool.
He wore a banana yellow suit to the after church bit,
borrowed a tenner then split.
Bought us an 1980's Schwarts spice rack
kept in the cupboard, she told him it was tat.
In the 90's the monkey on his back
pointed out it was a fucking herb rack.

Closure
We used to be more, but we're better as less
We traded some laughs, and we both went through hell
It's been quite a while since we had parted ways
I'm glad after all I can call you my friend
Call it crazy, call it wild
I know it's hard to understand
Forget the tears, forget the fights
And cherish instead the smiles and good times
We speak to each other without saying a word
Yet I still can't laugh at most of your jokes
After all this time, you still know me so well
If you ever need me you know I'll be there
...
