I’ve held the dead of strangers
Because it was right to do
I’ve seen abused children shattered
But hey what can you do?
I’ve died twice during my operations
But my time it was not due
I’m not going without reparations
But hey what can you do?
I drank like I was dying from thirst
I thought it would get me through
Instead I lost control of my life
But hey what can you do?
I had a brain tha...
Not all that’s poisonous will kill quickly
Some toxins take more time
It’s how we treat our mind and souls
Is how we prevent the cyanide
Two slow poisons that will kill a soul
Is pure lust and jealousy
Lust will stop the powers of love
Which breeds green eyed toxicity
Jealous emotions hang on tightly
And lust will cause Obsession
If you allow the...
If only..I had the nerves
To let my love convey
Maybe I could hold her hand
And say what I want to say
If only.. she would notice me
She would see that I’m ok
If only.. I could find the words
To say what I want to say
If only…I could kiss her cheek
It would mean so much today
If only..I had trust in myself
I would say what...
There is a swamp creature
That comes out in the night
Its scaled skin is dark green
And it’s eyes are red lights
People are its favorite food
It will eat them for his dinner
The swamp creature doesn’t care
If your a saint or if your a sinner
His breath smells like old rotten eggs
His teeth can cut through steel
Many people are dead and gone
Because they thought he wasn’t real
He can see you ...
Sometimes going through life
We run into horrible times
And sometimes there are obstacles
One more mountain we have to climb
It’s easy for us to lose our direction
When we let our negativity in
But there is a simple correction
So allow myself to begin ……
Experiences, whether good or bad
Have many lessons to be learned
You need to pay close attention
Or you will keep on getting burned

“Hello dear Mother. “ I say with a whisper. “
Hello Mother I’ve brought your favorite Tulips “I say with joy in my heart
“Do you remember the time when I was 5? And I threw a baseball to Danny? ……“
“……yes that’s right!! You said I was the strongest man alive. Ha ha.”
I move closer to my Mother. Sometimes she is hard of hearing.
“Mother I saw Dad at the shop today. He said you were making...
Many times I’ve gone left
When should’ve have gone right
Sometimes I should’ve run
But instead I had a fight
There’s times I stayed home
When I should’ve gone to work
I’ve lost friends and woman
Because I was a fucking jerk
There’s many things I should’ve done
But I definitely did not
I was supposed to be getting married
But On the wedding day I forgot
Sometimes I go through life
Just making b...
My old friend mister evergreen
You stand so mighty and strong
The shadows you cast down on me
Reach out so far and long
Under your robust arms of pine
I can find shelter from the heat
Your trunk provides my back support
And your needles work great as a seat
While under your cool, calm shadow
My poet thoughts are set free
Although there May be hundreds like you
Your are my favorite pine tree
...
Every tear you ever shed
spark’s a fire in my chest
Every fear within your head
I will make my own conquest
The heartbreak in your soul
Is mine to share with you
The parts that make you whole
Are the parts that make you you
All your sad and rainy days
Will be blocked out by my love
And all your secret feelings inside
Will be ha...
There was relief in feeling the storms approach
He thought as he rode into town
These past few evenings have been so hot
That it burns when he lays on the ground
Our main character is a young gun cowboy
At a saloon just west of Santa Fe
He came to collect his rightful bounty
On the two men he killed the other day
Hard rains are pouring down on him
As William dismounts his steed
This saloon ha...
