Don’t you think
Don’t you think
you not talking to me
constitute a stab
in the heart?
You could at least
have given me a kiss
sent me away
on my way to hell
You could at least
have sent me word,
told me a lie,
or gave me a heads start
What have I done
to deserve all that
to cast me aside
like a broken shell
If I had known
what your love did
I would have left
or we stayed apart
If ever you do care for me,
then help me cure
your curse
and all that it...
you not talking to me
constitute a stab
in the heart?
You could at least
have given me a kiss
sent me away
on my way to hell
You could at least
have sent me word,
told me a lie,
or gave me a heads start
What have I done
to deserve all that
to cast me aside
like a broken shell
If I had known
what your love did
I would have left
or we stayed apart
If ever you do care for me,
then help me cure
your curse
and all that it...

I love a few…
I’ve got a big heart
So big
It can fit
More than one
I’ve found that life
People
Offer various gifts
And not one gift alone
Satisfies
Sometimes it’s a dilemma
But it’s certainly
Not boring
Kinda keeps me
On my toes
On cloud nine
Riding a roller coaster
I wouldn’t trade it though
I was alone
For far too long
I’ll take this
Over that
Any day
So big
It can fit
More than one
I’ve found that life
People
Offer various gifts
And not one gift alone
Satisfies
Sometimes it’s a dilemma
But it’s certainly
Not boring
Kinda keeps me
On my toes
On cloud nine
Riding a roller coaster
I wouldn’t trade it though
I was alone
For far too long
I’ll take this
Over that
Any day

Get me a cold beer, or else!!
During the 1990's a severe winter storm kept temperatures in the 20's and thousands of homes in Amarillo Texas, without power for several days. It was perhaps a combination of cabin fever and alcohol that led one woman to shoot her 73 year old husband to death in the kitchen of their home. He gave her a can of warm beer. It had occurred to neither one of them to chill a six-pack on the back porch!

Virtual Thrills
I'm no stranger
to controversy
So this might appear
a bit misleading
I get my excitement
Somewhere but not here
When I arrived it was to write
Call me a snob if you will
I want friends
Not virtual thrills

confessions
an expert in evading feeling
I twirl my emotions inside me then block them out
it's a gift really forgetting
but there is a great fear in me
of losing my beloved
I wonder when I let him in?
I mean, I didn't intend to
my plan was to fill my loneliness
when did I become so needful
needing his love, needing his affections
I'm usually cold on the outside
this admission would surprise him
I don't let my emotions show
that would be a weakness
most you'll get from me
is a flicker in the eyes

Revival
I have pondered as of late
The time we share in this space
How once so many years ago
Those memories have faded
But I used to know
You recall and tell the tales
Stories of our love unveiled
And I know I smoked too much dope
As the details blurred and I lost hope
I thought the day would never come
But to my surprise you told me first
Like a lost bird in stormy winds ablown
My broken wings wouldn’t bring me home
So you cleared the skies
With your glittering green eyes
To show me where I had lost my way ...

Çold Coffee
I left you
Then came back to you
You weren't mad
Actually happy to see me
We have a relationship you know
Sometimes were hot and cold
But
We need each other
The coffee is cold
Yet my temperature is rising
Then came back to you
You weren't mad
Actually happy to see me
We have a relationship you know
Sometimes were hot and cold
But
We need each other
The coffee is cold
Yet my temperature is rising

Happy Endings.
I would love to wax poetic
the moon and stars.
How beautiful life is~
shared with my one true love,
Prince Bullshit.
That’s not what happened
that’s not who I became.
I’m not soft and huggable.
Life taught me not to trust,
and I believed it with
ferocious willingness.
Far from being all in,
I’m completely out.
My purse contents:
credit card,
passport,
lipstick.
The color~
“Fuck You”.

THE SHALL WE DO IT QUESTION
We've hung around each other long,
the bond we have is growing strong.
Tell me, honey, what would you do
if I asked to make love to you?
Would you say "Yes", give me a go,
or shake your pretty head, say "No"
and turn your back upon the chance
of a consummated romance.
or take the third way, hesitating,
by insisting on us waiting
until about this you're more sure
of wanting sexual pleasure?

I am not made to be any man's...

I don't believe it's possible
...not for me anyway
I would blame it on my many fractures
...they can be a lot to manage
the nature & texture of my damage

...I'm complicated

as much as I crave their company
eventually I need them to leave

i cannot see (too well)
i cannot
see
too well,
each picture
of her,
each happy
remembrance
blocks
my vision
from seeing
everything
else.
