Morning coffee cup, she pours coffee, fills it up. She is good to me. In a lonely house, I'm the only one who's here. Where have they all gone?

Haiku Two
Garden slowly fades. Winter soon will bring his **** January rime. When the corn is tall, when the stalks are high and white, coolness rules the night.

(Adapted from the song, "Stop, look, listen to your heart" by the Stylistics) You're alone all the time Does it ever puzzle you Have you asked why You seem to fall in love And out again Do you ever really love Or just pretend Why fool yourself It's never too late Though you try You can't hide All the things You really feel This time decide That you will open up Let it in There's no shame In sharing love You keep within It's been so long And so hard You've relied upon yourself And tried to guard That tender place In your heart All the while upon your face You played the part Of the needless one In control It's okay just let it go There's so much more There for you And for you to get it all You just have to Stop and give it up Just receive Trust and just release it all And then believe It's never too late

Reading him is like                                                                               eating fine chocolates from a white box Just one or two is not enough But too many and you run the risk of them seeming all the same And if you really over indulge you might ***** them all up and never eat chocolates again

Chinaski
In a sea of liquid gold Your boats are full A bounty, an argosy wasted Adrift with no wind to fill your sails Anchors aplenty Weigh you down Pull at you and slow you As you eat of yourself Children on the shore Beg a piece of bread Just beyond your hearing And conscience you have shed Widows mourn their loss Their houses you have taken To the streets they go Like you they are forsaken He has rowed away Beyond you in the sea Left the dead to bury dead Set the captives free

Adrift
Like the Gentile woman said even dogs get a treat I just want to feel a scrap of what you felt Sink my teeth into some meat When I feel tired When I feel old When I lose hope The words come They fly into the atmosphere above They carry away what I feel today and drift into your grace Away from my troubled face into your grace

Fly Away
Words are all around. I have picked them from the sky. Words can never die. How the words abound. They have grown upon the tree. Now my words are me.

A place called Section 3 A place where they held you and me They told us many times That this is where it all resides But we got small in there And hardly anybody dared To challenge status quo That isn't done here don't you know We bought it for a while Until our bellies filled with bile With poison all around And with our psyches breaking down Decided that we'd quit Decided we don't give a **** And so we walked away Still gone until this very day Instead we follow dreams We're so much better now it seems So good that we are free From the place called Section 3
