Everlasting Threads: A Tapestry of Friendship
In the tapestry of time, over three decades' span,
We grew up as comrades, connected at 15 our life began.
Though our paths may have diverged, distance be damned,
My perception and feelings for you forever withstand.
As youth, we braved a world steeped in its worst,
Yet never succumbed to its snares, never immersed.
Within your core, a strength untainted and real,
Not tethered to religion, but a power you conceal.
It's you, my dear friend, with boundless might,
Your inner reservoir of energy shines so bright.
And if you ever need an extra juju...

Within your core, a strength untainted and real,
Not tethered to religion, but a power you conceal.

Your inner reservoir of energy shines so bright.

normal
i am back to normal
just one out of hundreds
recognizable, but ordinary
turns out, i hate that.
want to be her little sister
again, but i think she‘s
feeling obligated to do so
and maybe i annoyed her enough.
don’t you see? i made it this far!
i did it, i overcame it
i‘m doing better than i ever was
but what’s to come - i fear it.

My Sister's Not Ready For Her Date Yet
She looked at me with
a smile and said "My
sister's not ready for
her date yet. But
would I go instead?"

Freya
Light is her name
She is precious like gold
Luckier than Fortuna,
Always outruning fate
Flames blaze from her eyes
And wheat is the color of her hair
Tricky as a mind game
You can't get out of,
If you ever meet her path
So deep,
Will be the impression
she'll make on you
That it will never leave
She is precious like gold
Luckier than Fortuna,
Always outruning fate
Flames blaze from her eyes
And wheat is the color of her hair
Tricky as a mind game
You can't get out of,
If you ever meet her path
So deep,
Will be the impression
she'll make on you
That it will never leave

Chapter 1
The Birth
Norman and Marlon had a sister named Claudia. She was their only sister. Claudia gave birth to a baby girl. The baby was born prematurely, and she was such a tiny thing. She weighed about two and a half pounds. The doctors at the hospital had to keep Claudia’s baby in an incubator for a few weeks. Claudia’s family were so happy when she brought home her cute Indian baby.
Norman was the youngest sibling. Although Marlon and his sister could not get along well, he loved his first niece very much. Claudia would put the baby on a pillow to sleep...

I still see her on disaster's green
Braving the tempest aftermath
To search for siblings in between
The wreckage of a twister's path.
The wind was in her silhouette,
Before the turbulence beyond,
And betrayed nothing of the fret
That the ransacking wind had spawned.
Then, as an angel plucks a ghost,
She whisked me off to safety sure
Or if need be get diagnosed,
Or otherwise be made secure...
Like memories which won't rescind
Of angels in the silhouette wind.
Braving the tempest aftermath
To search for siblings in between
The wreckage of a twister's path.
The wind was in her silhouette,
Before the turbulence beyond,
And betrayed nothing of the fret
That the ransacking wind had spawned.

She whisked me off to safety sure
Or if need be get diagnosed,
Or otherwise be made secure...
Like memories which won't rescind
Of angels in the silhouette wind.

I miss you
I miss you
Although I don’t show that every day
Although that you‘re gone is not always on my mind
I miss you
You know I miss the smile on your face
You know it was so similar to mine
I love you
Damn I loved you every single day
I hate myself I couldn’t show it as I should
I love you
You know what I‘d give to make it change
To see you, to hold you, just to look
I sit here in pain
Yet there are no tears on my face
I hate the feeling that you’re image‘s getting black
They‘re all moving on
But I? No I...
Although I don’t show that every day
Although that you‘re gone is not always on my mind
I miss you
You know I miss the smile on your face
You know it was so similar to mine
I love you
Damn I loved you every single day
I hate myself I couldn’t show it as I should
I love you
You know what I‘d give to make it change
To see you, to hold you, just to look
I sit here in pain
Yet there are no tears on my face
I hate the feeling that you’re image‘s getting black
They‘re all moving on

A Sister's Toast
Dan and Diane,
once separate
now a pair;
joined together
on this day so fair.
Surrounded by family,
by friends,
loving hearts abound;
sharing this occasion
of commitment so sound.
To my sister, Diane, with
whom I've shared a lifetime as kin;
growing up we've had moments,
a pain in the ass you have been.
But I've loved you so dearly
the whole of my life;
so caring, so kind
- and a loving mother -
with a genius mind.
To my new brother, Dan,
who likes to...

We Are Waiting For You By The Pool
Cassidy just got
to Joanna's loft apartment
and found a note that
says "We are waiting for you
by the pool. Please come join us."
But just as she was
about to take off her own
jumpsuit and reveal
her pink bikini, she heard
someone behind her say "hi".
That made Cassidy
turn around and see her best
friend's brother Kevin
coming towards her and say

Hostess~Host Ghost
zombies crawl sguiggle and giggle
it's a feast for the fit
entertain this, in your hour of metaphors
code locked and ready
wormwood for the toad, told ya so
ugly scarred but not for the morrow
injested grief, insidious need
you know me
I seek the higher realm
watch as I ride the dawn's last spangle
speak spanglish, nah
hand me the grief spoon and dish
no, my lips are sealed
wish to plead?
in this dimension and the next
cavorting in the atmospheric pressure
...
