How Do I Get It Out Of My Head?
There is one image I will never get out of my head
As much as I wish I could wash it from my memory forever
My father laying semi conscious in a hospital bed
Fighting the sedation when he hears us speaking in the hall nearby
An incision his collar to his waist
A tube down his throat,
A look of utter terror on his face
The nurse has us move away from the room
Trying to avoid startling him
My father needs his rest
Still as he can possibly be
My father kept trying to wake up
So they put him under
The phrase "medically...

No Daughter Of Mine Should Be In A Beauty Pageant
Keshia smiled and
thought "Soon, the
crown will be mine"
only to have her
see Dad among
the other judges.

This is None Of Your Business
Brian found an old
black n white photo
of a woman who is
not his mom walking
barefoot on a beach.
That was before Dad
took the pic from him.

Dewey of garden graze
He fed and
Raised me
Upon
A surgical clinic
He runs.
To
Hades rising.

Whoops!
Sorry, Dad. We didn't mean to have you walk
in and see us like this. I know that what
I am about to say is something you would
not believe. You see, what we are doing is
rehearsing a sex scene for a latest movie.

Glow
Inside the colors I fade into black
disturbed by the crowd
I glow out of place
in the shadows...glitter
It is my nature that appeals to you
secreting the best of me away
Hidden child of understanding
shyly smiling up at you
They call you Father
I call out daddy lift me up
the shade of their scorn chills
Quiety appraised by the many dimensions of you
I must remember
they are refracted reflections of yourself
If I am berated it is with your knowledge
you sit back and watch to see how I'll handle...

Abba
neediness of soul it's always been so
a wild child of faith left alone
your voice I heard above all else
I didn't know I was lonely
because you were there
you filled the gap when I was little
there was no void
you witness my first steps
uttering step out Brenda
it will be okay if you fall
no one else was there to observe
to give me courage
my milestones went unnoticed by humanity
my baby book was yours to keep
you were my mother, father and creator
you wanted me for yourself
I didn't take to...

So Ashamed Of Saying That She's My Daughter
One night,
Dad walked right
into
this one club and got
angry at Justine
dancing and taking
her clothes
off on that
club stage.

Inheritance (Daydreamer)
I inherited the best part of my father;
The heart of a dreamer
Those who do not dream
when awake, and aware
can never understand
how we justify a day
of "doing nothing"
They do not see the results
of how our hearts are lifted
Or the difference in our eyes
when we perceive things
a little higher
on our spectrum
They don't see where we went today;
Back in time, or forward
Nor can they comprehend
what we've done
to fix the things in our pasts ...

To Prove That She's Now Mature
You
see, Dad.
The reason
why Bonnie had
let herself pose nude
for this portrait is to
prove that she's now mature and
able to decide what's best for
herself. And if you're still not cool
with it, then that's your rotten luck, Old Man!

An Unbreakable Bond
Dedicated to Chelsea
You weren’t my biological daughter, but you lit up my world.
Where did this extraordinary filial love come from?
I’m indebted to you because you made me feel like a father.
There seems to be an unbreakable bond between us.
I can’t explain it, but we’re somehow connected to each other.
My wife and I wanted to nurture and train you as our daughter.
Your mom asked you, “Do you want to live with them?”
You jumped and clapped your hands and said, “Yes! Yes! I’ll go!”
I know why your loving parents didn’t allow us to...
