Dust Bowl Lovers
Dust devils dance for rain
Her mason jar moxie
Turns pears into preserves
That can his worries
Of the lean season
With irrigation by a nearby river
Whose water will fill the rows
Of wheaten Lazarus
With her kitchen cornucopia
No mere manna
But an earthly sustenance
To fuel the labor he loves
But when she needs his touch
To fill the lonely hours
That shorten her breath
He lends his steel to her softness
Like a knight in the midst of chivalry
Whose creative anachronism
Is...

No Time For Regret!
No time for regret that belongs to yesterday.
We cannot change what's been and gone -
So why waste the energy?
What can't be fixed might drive us crazy,
And life's too short for that!
Let's embrace it, come what may -
Celebrate a brand new day,
YOUR WAY!
A future unknown.
Haha! I'm the last person to revel in the unknown -
Anyway, it sounded good!
But hey, there is some merit in it -
Feeling excited about what's to come,
While now is simply an unwritten book.
It's easy to get bogged down fearing...

Psycle
Maniacal ego
unquelled
where the slightest inconvenience
releases hell
the mountain's too high
too tall to tell
the air must be getting thinner
this winter's gone stale
and when it all gets washed in rain
they will fear the day
when they realize the excuses and the pain
stay the same and haven't changed
ego maniac
unchecked
the shallowness in which it sinks
is new depths
more rocks to be laid upon the chest
in shorter breaths
until it stresses what is left
in more frequent...

Salt In The Wound
I keep my head low, doing my best,
but every time I rise, they put me to rest.
Tried all my life, just to make a stand,
but every time I reach, they slap my hand.
You push and you fight, you dig in the dirt,
but the more you struggle, the deeper the hurt.
Shot down again, no matter the try,
with every fall, a piece of me dies.
I work with my hands, break my back for the cause,
they tear me apart with no reason, no laws.
Like salt in the wound, it burns through my soul,
taking what's left, never leaving me whole. ...

When Abortion is Self-defense
Why can't a woman defend her own life in America? If someone points a gun at a person, that person has a right to use deadly force to defend their life. So if having a baby will kill a woman because of some medical issue, how can Republikills decide that woman has no right to use deadly force to save her life? Any law that gets passed without allowing a woman to have an abortion without the freedom to protect her own life must be Constitutionally stricken down!

Evil Empire
I’m an advocate for compassion and empathy
But the recent political results left me disappointed
Now the world is lacking even more sympathy
While several leaders are illogical and disjointed
But I remember that before all this came to pass
I thought maybe we should let crazy take the wheel
I mean how often do you see a vehicle driven by an ass?
Spellbound by some witchcraft in the art of the steal
I think I wished for this so that all would be revealed
So that even the most blind would eventually learn
Thou shall fucketh...

Feel of Field
Bead of sweat, suspended -
Following rivulet, embedded
in – Skin, the ridge of the forehead,
Weary – Dreary, in the sun as [concentrate].
Windows in rows across the surface of dirt.
Blurry vision in magnification.
Seed by seed sows -
Plant by plant that grows,
stilled,
poetically willed,
Captured in flash form moment -
as the sweat
breaks the stillness
sweetly.
Spyglass prism sheds the sun
in overdose.
There are dreams
& shadows,
& links
In flash
as ...

Sinking Down
A jack of all trades and a master of none
Isn’t that what you told me when you were young?
So many restless nights avoiding the sun
Careless whispers spoken with a poison tongue
Sinking down with the lowest of lows
Words are subtle jabs leading to blows
Never throw stones inside this fragile house
When did you stop listening to such sound advice?
An alley cat stalks the unsuspecting mouse
Playing life’s game costs us more than what’s suffice
Sinking down until insanity seizes control
Lies are a cancer that slowly kills...

An alley cat stalks the unsuspecting mouse
Playing life’s game costs us more than what’s suffice
Sinking down until insanity seizes control
Lies are a cancer that slowly kills...
