Forgiveness
I am sorry… the words that are dripping
From the mouth that should taste sweet
Like honey, but in the heart they taste like
Blood, full of copper and salt. Do you truly
Mean those simple words or are you tripping
Over false words and promises? Your feet
Carry you to the ocean where you dislike
The waves, but drowning in your newly
Found duty to be honest with yourself and
Those you hurt should mean something.
How can you live with yourself when you
Can feel the flames on your skin? How can
You forgive others when you cannot...
From the mouth that should taste sweet
Like honey, but in the heart they taste like
Blood, full of copper and salt. Do you truly
Mean those simple words or are you tripping
Over false words and promises? Your feet
Carry you to the ocean where you dislike
The waves, but drowning in your newly
Found duty to be honest with yourself and
Those you hurt should mean something.
How can you live with yourself when you
Can feel the flames on your skin? How can
You forgive others when you cannot...

Back to normal
The festivities are over, and the morning news
is about the war in Ukraine, we are told how successful
their army is shooting down 13 drones and killing a Russian in a boat.
Regarding the ongoing slaughter in Gaza, it was hardly mentioned, one assumes it was too grisly a show
so early in the morning.
On another news channel, the boat is now a warship, and many sailors were killed
the Zelinsky regime has changed the orthodox Christmas 7th of January to Europe's calendar to the applause of UE who takes delight in such matter ...

Stabs in the Dark
Hmmm, I just thought how…I hurt you. I keep realizing more & more just how much… I’m sorry. I know I say it over & over but I don’t know what else to do or say. I wish I could make it right…undo the stabs I put in your heart…go back & be a better friend…go back & be sensitive & really listen…go back & make different choices… but who knows, maybe I’m still holding the knife & flailing in the dark & don’t even realize the damage I cause in my own confusion. I hope not. I don’t want to be a source of hurt!

Broken
The night is dark and long,
My body and brain are so wrong,
I'm a broken person,
Of that, I am certain.
I ruined my mom's only chance of fun,
Because my body wanted to run,
I had heart palpitations, I'm broken,
I can't seem to get myself to function,
My brain and my body are in a bad position,
I feel lesser than phlegm,
My health came between them,
Between my mother and a good time,
I kept her away from something sublime,
Between her and the first Christmas party ...
My body and brain are so wrong,
I'm a broken person,

I ruined my mom's only chance of fun,

I had heart palpitations, I'm broken,

My brain and my body are in a bad position,
I feel lesser than phlegm,
My health came between them,
Between my mother and a good time,
I kept her away from something sublime,

Swing .
I had no idea how much you could miss
someone. I mean from the morning until
the dark . How you lost your happy place
in the park someone took your swing and
you’re middle aged and acting out like
you are aged five . Except a broken heart
isn’t playing games it feels like digging your
own grave but you are theoretically alive .
Living on the outside but dying on the
inside . It’s hard to see the old routines
when your heart high jacks your mind .
Your a hostage and the taker but you
can’t find the negotiator .

Winter Sun
Truth is more fragile in the winter sun
as if some final ending has just begun
to make itself now known
within this pale light now shown
All of those gay and happy times
remain elusive to these rhymes
leaving me again left alone
one more sin for which to atone
When words said in such haste
appear then to be such a waste
with the harms they do accrue
no matter what I then try to do
For unintentional wounds still hurt
despite any attempts to then skirt
the very issue…
wipe it away with another tissue ...

the remembered
a short memory
There were and still are two airports on the flatland
outside of our town, therefore many German soldiers
where stationed here.
Since roads, and bridges had to be built and maintained
there was good employment for everyone and the payment
was good, but not much to spend the money on
a German military band playing loudly in the park, a cinema showing heroic soldiers saving cats
when not killing Russians, a couple of cafes selling what was called coffee, but made of roasted peas
It was left to people, to go to meeting at...

For MJ, my Melody was once my Joy
I, am angry.
And you know,
not all of us have the iron skin of the three hundred spartans who stood against the persian hordes all alone all on their own.
While you laugh and smile alongside your comrades there are those of us who scream ourselves to sleep at night,
wondering when the next bottle of pills
The next dose of drugs,
The next hateful word
will be thrown at us with a veiled contempt only we seem to be condemned to see.
And the thoughts that follow make me angry,
angry with the world and it’s kaleidoscope of colours and...

Deku
I live my life by disguise
soothing my demons with lullabies
I'd apologize, but my mouth is dry
I need you to hate me for leaving this time
we relate in a celestial place
I can't watch the tears run down your face
I won't let you watch him fill the space
that I know you'd give anything to take
your darkness is shrouded with innocence
the monster bound and buried within
if I stay the knot will loosen and unravel
don't follow me; you will find another friend

Guilted
his whole intention
all along was to always bully me
with proposition after
dirty proposition
until i was positioned
right where he wanted me
pinned with no place to go
hogging up my space
with his domineering presence
selfishly sucking up my air..my thoughts
my moods..my moisture
aggressive as fuck
possessive..proactive
he saw my responses in advance
then acted on each one of them accordingly
preyed on them like a hawk
perched over my entire being

man and his dog
Man and his dog
He awoke under the bed it had been his birthday
drinking champagne, eating Danish pastry, and smoking Havana cigars
He walked into the kitchen, opened the fridge took out
a beer, which he thirstily drank while wondering why
everything was so quiet
The maid had been in when he slept and everything was in order; when did the guests leave, or had he partied with his teddy bear, being lonely since his dog died
Looking out of the window he saw many cars, they had
no drivers and some had open doors as abandoned in haste, but what had...

Honestly
It’s hard to be truthful
with feelings & desires sometimes
Especially hard when voices of the past
Bombard with words like “bad” “sinner” “selfish”
I see now I wasn’t honest
with either you or i
those many years ago.
If I’d owned the truth, you’d know:
I wanted you to choose me
I wanted life with you
adventures, routine, family
I wanted to fight for you
I wanted only you
YOU were my first love
But more, I wanted to be good, righteous, & unselfish
My subconscious still believed those voices
That...
