A Poem
Improperly fit – Our thoughts go on-
Such a lovely Winter’s Haven-
Let us not castaway

A Poem – A Child’s Eye
Through the eyes of our children-
There’s a heaven found-
Love for your partner awaits
If you are unable to find love for your partner through the eyes of your children you’ve missed everything.

Thought Drop – Alcohol
Alcohol helps me to think more clearly. It helps me to see through the sober words. Especially words wriggling from mouths who care to manipulate. – M. Taggart

A Poem – Permission
Avoid eye contact-
Be somber-
Smile nicely when you wish-
Have a drink
Take a shot
Pull
Your music plays-
They climb a fence to see
A moment is
Your face is nothing-
Pressed to the floor-
Uncovered
The corner tastes so nice
We aren’t alone any longer-
They are back and speaking
Why let go-
we can’t forget to be-
Is to please
Please – we beg all
In every one of us and the more-
Don’t ever not be
If we give permission for you-
Than let me be-
To be given permission to us
To be exactly who we are today

A Poem – We
The individual is gone-
A distinct adventure-
Watch – another cubicle erected
What’s wrong with dust?
First sunrise to show the rest-
Weathered, exhausted, satisfied-
Do we need to consult on words-
Patch the warriors mouths with more-
But then, they never were
What’s wrong with the hoe and wishing for rain?
The seeds show strength when growth continues-
Can we go back
It’s gray – We can see our breath
We are ahead of the morning
eh.
Instead of talking over someone, listen. Instead of telling someone how they feel, ask.
Mommy Don’t Take my Smile – A Poem
Don’t take my smile-
A baby tugged on a string-
Angry parents walk heavily-
A girl kissed a boy-
Vile symbols shook-
How could you-
A toddler finds heaven-
The mother scolds-
Heaven is not a thought
A boy kissed a boy-
Whispers never speak-
But these did
A child finds a storm-
The father doesn’t see-
Severe comes the night-
A woman finds her man-
Mud and Farm and life-
He isn’t enough
A man loves his wife-
Lying beneath the ground-
If ever again I can-
Mommy – Don’t take my smile
