I Hate You :)
Slowly fading
Shaking limbs
Cut wires in the brain
By the enemy’s hand
I want to see you while you still remember me.

once upon a song
a sonnet
“On the other side of pain, there is still love.”
—Madeleine L'Engle
she was the sweetest song i’d ever sung,
though amateur my quivering baritone;
upon her dulcimer my treasures hung,
my red wine her compelling pheromone.
her plagal cadence brought me to my grave,
not one sip saved for future poetry.
how fallen, i, a soldier once so brave,
slain hopes interred in love's cold cemetery!
but, like a seed, i struggled from the dark
soil of ignominy (i caught my breath!),

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...

the bitch is back
covid has re-entered my system
snuck in like a thief in the night
temporary hold on my life
and everything hurts
but my lungs are the worst
an elephant sitting on my chest
wondering will my next breath be a gasp or a wheeze
when it rattles into me
working my inhaler overtime just to survive
danced this set before
I didn't want to move to this tune anymore
back to the meds & the bed
catch y'all on the flipside

Pained Daze
Pain radiates
Making thought
sharp
edged
Adding weight
to already
overly sensitized
nerves
Life
betrayed
by body
Shambling stumble
through
medicated haze days
Waiting
for good ones
Managing
the rest

Refurbished Simplicity
My bed drenched in a sweat only a fever dream can produce.
Clouds linger with a persistence that suggest trouble on the horizon.
Breeze blows in through the smallest crack of an open window with furious intentions.
What hell can compare to the pestilence of a seasonal flu whose determination trumps that of modern medicine?
If I could withstand the punishment for a moment longer I would consider myself worthy of a fate which surely has escaped me.

Rowdy
It's been so long ago
at least twenty years or so
your body hard and bloated
your head hanging low.
I had hoped that they could fix you
make you well once again
but the cost was far too great
for penniless owners, it had to wait.
So we brought you home that night
but you wouldn't come inside
you laid there in the driveway
such lonely, sad brown eyes.
I came and laid beside you
my eyes feeling up with tears
I covered you with a blanket
and told you not to fear.
Now your buried
just...

For Better Or Worse
I'm trying to love you through your hurt
Trying to love you through your pain
Trying to sustain through your anxiety
While trying my best to remain sane
I'm trying to love you with empathy
I'm trying to be your ride or die
It's causing a strain on me mentally
And physically; I can't even lie
I spy, with my third eye, real, true love
I try to give it to you unconditionally
And continually try to fly as high as a dove
I'm transparently conveying this poetically
Trying to love you through your pain
Trying to sustain through your anxiety
While trying my best to remain sane
I'm trying to love you with empathy
I'm trying to be your ride or die
It's causing a strain on me mentally
And physically; I can't even lie
I spy, with my third eye, real, true love
I try to give it to you unconditionally
And continually try to fly as high as a dove
I'm transparently conveying this poetically
