Something So Small

Destiny

1 min read

I buy her a toy

She just plays with the bag!

I buy her a bed, she plays with the box it came in.

Shes a character

But, I love her to death

She is family!

She wants to only sleep with me

Even when there’s no room

She jumps and wiggles

To find a spot. Surely, makes herself comfortable.

She needs to feel my touch

Around dark,

the petting comes.The brush comes out

While I’m watching TV

She purrs, ...

What did you do?

Destiny

Had a 20 year mortgage.

It was paid off

My husband comes home from work

He tells me he’s fired

What did you do?

I punched my boss in the face

What?? What did you do?

We have no savings

Let’s refinance the house

Until, I get back on my feet

You got another job , fired again!!

What did you do?

I packed his belongings and threw them out

Why do you want me to leave?

What did I do?

The house is o...

Dancing In The Dark

Destiny

No one to dance with!! I’m home alone. I open my closet, and dance with the sleeve of my shirt. I need something or someone to hold to.Dancing now to old disco songs by DonnaSummer. You see I’m blind.

Once I was able to see, before a car accident took my vision. Maybe, my vision is gone, but my heart and soul are not.Music takes me to places, I could only imagine in my head.

Dancing keeps me me al...

Nowhere Man

Where am I? How did I get here?

I hear white noise ringing in my ears

I am in an abyss of nowhere

Is this Heaven? Maybe it’s Hell? I don’t think it’s either.I’m lost in my mind to nothingness. i’m walking, turning, spinning round and round.All I see, is a mirrored reflection of me. Have I lost my mind?

I hear a voice, I feel something on my chest. The voice is saying get the paddles. Paddles?

Stormy Wishes

I wish I may

I wish I might

I wish my dreams come true tonight

I’m the bird that flies through the fluffy clouds of marshmallows

The trees are so green,so tall

Your leaves are so brown and so crisp

Resting on the claw of branches, to rest

Then I fly, and I fly again

To the end of the sky!

I feel the rain is coming

Droplets gently touching my wings

I must go back to my flock before the storm

What A Young Child Wants

Destiny

My name is Devon

My mom‘s in heaven

I live with dad

It’s not too bad

I dream I’m sleeping in bed with my mom

But when I wake up, she is gone

I make believe I have a brother

But it’s not true, there is no other

I have to go now and take a bath

Then do homework, English and math

Goodnite Mommy, I throw you a kiss

Your hugs and smile is what I miss.

LOVE YOUR SON, DEVON xxxooo...

What Grandma Said

Destiny

My grandmother always told me, when you go out, wear clean socks with no holes.

Make sure you’re wearing underwear.

You never know, you might get hit by a car

Your dress will rise and expose your private.

Your shoes usually fly off with impact. your toes will be exposed. Embarrassing.!...

It’s almost 6 days and no mommy!! Where did she go? Is Mama coming back? I live in a condemned building.Alone with the roaches.

My Bird Quigley

Destiny

In this cage both day and night

I spread my wings to take flight

No room

Although, I’m treated like a king

Hearing music makes me sing

I mostly swark

Why can’t I be a mouse

Freedom to roam the whole house

I’m caged

I think my cage is kinda rad

Alone all day gets me mad

Master will be home soon

I’m petted when on his arm

Makes me feel nice and calm

So cover me now, I’ve been fed

Now it’s time ...
