Buttons
dirty ankles
skirt edges flapping
adding mud
on muddied legs
sloshing on water filled puddles
hurrying home
to prepare supper
but her thoughts were elsewhere
binding wounds
on bleeding hearts
one of them hers
the others, her children's
he didn't have to leave
he didn't have to dive
he could've hung on
until her strength
lifted him up
but he didn't
and wounded their souls
with his freedom
skirt edges flapping
adding mud
on muddied legs
sloshing on water filled puddles
hurrying home
to prepare supper
but her thoughts were elsewhere
binding wounds
on bleeding hearts
one of them hers
the others, her children's
he didn't have to leave
he didn't have to dive
he could've hung on
until her strength
lifted him up
but he didn't
and wounded their souls
with his freedom

Lets Fight Together
Never let the darkness consume your light,
hold on to the whispers of hope,
embrace the strength within your soul
for you are needed, loved... cherished.
Never believe the lies of despair,
your existence is a beacon,
a guiding star in the night
shining brighter than you know.
Never forget the battles you've won,
each step forward is a victory,
your journey is a testament
to the resilience of your spirit.
Never surrender to the shadows,
for within you lies a fire,
a flame that will burn eternally...
hold on to the whispers of hope,
embrace the strength within your soul
for you are needed, loved... cherished.
Never believe the lies of despair,
your existence is a beacon,
a guiding star in the night
shining brighter than you know.
Never forget the battles you've won,
each step forward is a victory,
your journey is a testament
to the resilience of your spirit.
Never surrender to the shadows,
for within you lies a fire,
a flame that will burn eternally...

Vale America
I asked God if the American empire was murdered by an enemy.
He said, without a single tear in his all seeing eyes.
" America died by suicide not murder."
No further explanation was required.
He said, without a single tear in his all seeing eyes.
" America died by suicide not murder."
No further explanation was required.

Letter From a Dead Man
the obituary~
the news is old
but the pain of death
is new... again
you took all my options
for reconciliation,
swallowed them down
with cheap vodka
and finally got some sleep
my earliest memory of you
remains a dust cloud
of machine-gunned questions;
your round, 8-year old face
with eyes that were always
a little too frantic,
hands twisting into each other
while I gathered my timid words
to provide answers;
you never seemed to mind,
playing jump rope
with...
the news is old
but the pain of death
is new... again
you took all my options
for reconciliation,
swallowed them down
with cheap vodka
and finally got some sleep
my earliest memory of you
remains a dust cloud
of machine-gunned questions;
your round, 8-year old face
with eyes that were always
a little too frantic,
hands twisting into each other
while I gathered my timid words
to provide answers;
you never seemed to mind,
playing jump rope
with...
