I refuse to be overwhelmed

you think light verse is
shallow, but I like to paddle amongst
the rock pools of my mind before
the tide comes in     ..

Poetry is the kind of friend

tapping me on
my shoulders
convincing me
that I matter,

looks straight
into my eyes
saying you
will outlive
this storm.

Possibly, Maybe

I may kill my wife
she causes me pain & strife
tells me I can't write

Truth as a writer

Simple words will never cover
all the things i want to state
but may make some faint impression
with the facts i now relate

raison d’etre

only reason for living
is the fear of not existing
and of everything you’d be missing
if you didn’t

Haiku

sun slowly sets blush
wind and earth spinning in time
universal dance

[INSERT TEXT HERE]

Authenticity is an ideal
It’s a lost art
Knowing how to be real
How to act
How to feel
Just empty gestures
On a blank page

I'm going to need a flak jacket

Writing porn doesn't make you unique
it doesn't make you sexy or a freak
it seems sad, crude, and cliché
but that's my opinion for the day

A Poetic Chocolatopath!

Although
I can digest
And/or ruminate
Poetry about chocolate
I cannot actually
Eat it
Poetry
May be able
To fill the heart
And sometimes the soul
But not the belly!

Focusing

Chocolate
Helps me focus
When i eat chocolate
I'm focused
On how much more
Chocolate
I can eat
It's like
A self fulfilling
Chocolate prophecy

Soleful!

The soul, or sole
Of an old pair of boots
As withered, and worn
And forlorn
Nothing else afoot
Lazy lacey laces
Hanging loose, untied
Heels, never healed
Old trodden roads
Blistered memories
Of beautiful feet

Poetry Farmer

the poetry farmer

composts
negativity

plows fields
of language

plants seeds
of doubt and hope

weeds out
superfluous words

waters
conceptual roots

fertilizes
intellectual inquiry

harvests
fruitful ideas

poetry farmers
dig life
