I turned today To say- Nothing. He wasn't there, And this is 'missing'.

I sit and watch in shock As your normally kind hands Tear weeds from your garden, Ungloved. Question; Whether eyes or hands Know better which are weeds.

Your Garden
You are trying to rush me Out of the bookstore. Ice cream is not a substitute For paper friends, fool. Leave me, eventually I Will unwind my way out Back to reality and your Overpriced milk products.

You who ask the hard questions Never seem prepared for any answers. What purpose your rebellion? Critic in the abstract, Cherisher of words. Only words, mere Angry echo. Come Revolution! Show me your toothless rage, Carried by amputee feet. The tyrants lie that way, Dear Children of Cause.
