Row
The word row
I’m not even sure that’s the
correct spelling
It is.
It’s not the way you’d expect to
Pronounce it
I heard this word for the first time in
“A Little Princess” by Lucy
Everyone was awry
Go Lucy!
When they found out Sara was a princess, but Sara had been
A princess this whole time
In the beginning,
She was a princess,
She was a princess when her dad died and left her with nothing,
and she had to be beggar,
And she was a princess in the end
after all she endured
...

idfc if it doesn't even make sense vol. one
can't even fuckin figure out if
today is still
today
or not
or if it's
friday
or
saturday by technicality
but possibly still technically
friday
for the oooh!..possums
and maybe
this shift
has my circadian rhythm
just
bamboozled
but maybe
i'm just
blame shifting
despite their calls of "sunrise"
during twilight hours
forever finding myself awaiting
this.. j-o-b
to ring-a-schwing-schwing ...

The Pumpkin Boy
The pumpkin boy’s my favourite:
too old to trick-or-treat,
but so handsome in ruffled shirt
and grinning mask.
He’ll soon replace my son.

Crying
My baby's crying’s constant
With heavy screaming too
And soothing her is difficult
Since I'm still missing you
You say that this was for the best
If you could only see
I'm crying with my baby
While you're not here for me
Swinging face down in your arms
I miss that way you'd hold her
I wish that you’d have stayed with me
To watch as she grows older
But here we cry still without you
Both making quite a fuss
Since I can't soothe my baby
As I'm still mourning us
With heavy screaming too
And soothing her is difficult
Since I'm still missing you
You say that this was for the best
If you could only see
I'm crying with my baby
While you're not here for me
Swinging face down in your arms
I miss that way you'd hold her
I wish that you’d have stayed with me
To watch as she grows older
But here we cry still without you
Both making quite a fuss
Since I can't soothe my baby
As I'm still mourning us

A Friend in Need
Doctor, dear doctor
what do you recommend
to end unwanted pregnancy?
I'm asking for a friend.
She just became a teenager
when this life began,
that's much too young to be a mom...
and I'm a married man.

Thirty
He blows bubbles on the surface
making noises, treads for seconds,
takes a long breath in, rockets
to the bottom of the deep end.
I hold my breath with his, count;
start at three, hit seven, then move
fast, sit, toes plunge in cold water,
watch him below me carefully.
He surfaces, splashes, removes his
goggles, scolds me; I crashed his goal
of thirty!? I think he knows my need to
jump; he asks me 'please just trust me'.
‘I see you-’ I start, sit back, watch his
puckered fingers wipe his face, he ...

Mother of kings who only have love for queens
Sinisterly, wicked it would seem far from average, as we begin to indulge in this 😉 scheme,
Overtaken by desires of lust, as we rush into forbidden rituals, old traditions giving birth to new cultures other creations and such,
Refusing to surrender 🙏 or give in, an catering from a man's touch, only to be submissive in bed 🛏 other than that like 👍 a race track all bets 😉 are off!
Resisting all urges and engagements and arrangements, canceling all advances pursuing any further, for future entertainments,
Disciplined being in total...

TWO BOYS AND A DOG!
Two boys and a dog!”
“What?” He ask again
“Two boys and a dog,” She repeats. Firmly! “That’s what I bring to the table!”
He studies her for a silent minute, so she gets up to leave. “Surely, he cannot handle this…”
“So?!” He interrupts her thoughts, “I mean,let me halla at you for a moment ma!” He takes her hand, and gently leads her back to sit.
“Two boys and a dog,huh?”
“See,I know you and ‘em babies have been let down one too many times before, and on behalf of my people, I apologize.”

Cravings
I feel the mania creeping in
With its skin chilling whisper,
Lips brushing my ear.
Wild eyes glitter
As an old familiar smile
Spreads across my face.
I am euphoric.
Too much caffeine
And not enough sleep
Fuels my nicotine spiked
Anxiety trip.
My mind replays
Flashes of today's wonders—
Finding shapes in clouds,
Sweet milestones of motherhood,
And the smile
On my wild child's face.
Like thunder rumbling
In the distance,
Old cravings threaten
Months of progress, ...
With its skin chilling whisper,
Lips brushing my ear.
Wild eyes glitter
As an old familiar smile
Spreads across my face.
I am euphoric.
Too much caffeine
And not enough sleep
Fuels my nicotine spiked
Anxiety trip.
My mind replays
Flashes of today's wonders—
Finding shapes in clouds,
Sweet milestones of motherhood,
And the smile
On my wild child's face.
Like thunder rumbling
In the distance,
Old cravings threaten
Months of progress, ...

Motherhood
How long do you stare at her
after trying so hard to get her to rest
How long do you hold her
With her mouth to your nipple and breast
How tired have you been
when rocking her to sleep at night
How many tears have you cried
feeling guilty, after the smallest fight
How many years did you wait for this
not knowing how much you misunderstood
How many times did your heart fill up
from every moment of motherhood.
after trying so hard to get her to rest
How long do you hold her

not knowing how much you misunderstood
How many times did your heart fill up

Ego Trippin Remix
I was born in chaos and peace
I walked to the edge and built a platform
I designed a platform so high that I was able to dine with the divine
I am powerful
I sat on a throne drinking sweet wine with my ancestors
I got hot and lifted a chilled golden Chalice to cool my thirst
My oldest daughter is the best gift from the divine
The tears from my birth pains created a goddess from beyond this universe
I am a capably beautiful and awesomely intelligent woman
I looked at a mirror and cried tears of joy and pain
For a birthday present when he...
