John Barleycorn
I saw him sitting there like that,
emotions drawn all over
his once efficient heart;
it wasn't really his fault.
He was looking lost.
Like a Cadillac with its rear
fender dented & bent,
pulled to a shoulder parking spot,
I saw him sitting there
drinking gasoline, lonely &
waiting to be filled-up,
and I knew that he felt a whole lot.
emotions drawn all over
his once efficient heart;
it wasn't really his fault.
He was looking lost.
Like a Cadillac with its rear
fender dented & bent,
pulled to a shoulder parking spot,
I saw him sitting there
drinking gasoline, lonely &
waiting to be filled-up,
and I knew that he felt a whole lot.

Tell It To The Bees
When I was eight, a bee stung my face.
Tangled itself in my hair
saw me as an enemy
and shot hot venom into my skin.
My Mother ran to her screaming kid
as a moment of pure panic erupted
on Sunday’s lawn,
but the damage was done
my head throbbing, numb
where a bruise turned a vivid shade
of violet, as bold as my new fear
of small latching insects.
Fast forward thirty years
and I...
