Life
All this life
And all of its nagging.
And all of its nagging.

Pot t’ piss in
Ain’t got a pot
T’ piss in
No I ain’t
Nor a bed
Or credit card
To lend
My friend
T’ piss in
No I ain’t
Nor a bed
Or credit card
To lend
My friend

One life to smile
Not being happy isn't a death sentence, it's a life sentence.

frost watch
instinct keeps me poised
eyes darting
hovering near the shadows
always an exit within reach
winds can turn bitter
...with little warning
chilling to the bones
& I am...
deeply susceptible
...to cold
eyes darting

*The Blackest Rose*

The blackest rose can still smell sweet
although she's fallen in the gutter
and been trampled by his feet....

Pond Haiku
I am but a pond
Life happens all around me
All I get is rain
Life happens all around me
All I get is rain

The Ode to
I work
I clean
I raise
I sing
I dance
I play
I struggle
I cry
I stress
I make do
I go without
So my child doesn't have to
I, the single mother.
I clean

So my child doesn't have to

The seagulls
Are in mourning again
The seas weep
As the planet bleeds
I can
No longer
Comprehend
The Insanity
Of man

Love can be quite painful
Love is all around
Like a serial killer
At least the killer kills you
Love just bleeds you slow
Like a serial killer
At least the killer kills you
Love just bleeds you slow

A Doomed State
Twilight Zone has arrived
People are drugged fueled zombies
No recovery

No recovery

Garbage
I randomly walk in the city
Run into encounters I know and I don't
And they randomly throw garbage on me.
Run into encounters I know and I don't
And they randomly throw garbage on me.

Tart To Sweet
Now life is throwing
lemons at me, so I cut
them for lemonade.
lemons at me, so I cut
them for lemonade.
