I am big on iambic pentameter   About that I could never lie, since I pass every poetic parameter   And earned my poetic license

Poetic license
It’s a delight to know the fear, providing a loss of life. With only the moon that wears feathers from phoenix. Gold drippings and arch of eternity. Rebirth not from water, but of soul selling to herself, in innovation and originality. As the others emulate. Starlight allure, speaking languages with humanities musings. Waking the dead world, dropping men to their knees as their boyish behavior is pulled to the front. Relinquishment of dogma, as we all enter a new age. As chanting songs in homage to her. As no more tears to cry, to what she avoided in the first place, is attention from others, pushing away romantic gestures, conversing conversations, a standard practice of life’s narrative.

I watch men I do not know. How they smile, twitch, scratch- how the ***** steel bristles cut through their cheeks and chins; their tatoos dull blue and grey on sweat washed arms. How they rub their hands, push back their hair, adjust their collars, breath, laugh, belch. I am looking for someone I never knew. I am looking for my father. If he were near, I could not let him pass by unseen, unfelt. Meeting him, I do not know what I would say. hello or do you know me? Maybe I would say nothing. Maybe I would just sit and stare, like a soldier, seeing his own arm ****** and torn in the road, wondering why the fingers don't move when he tries to make a fist.

To my father
Let your word        Not be wasted              In the ears of stubborn       Let your silence              Silence  the noise         Of ignorance and negativity.                       be still            Is to be at peace with  yourself                            Know your worth                                       Trust the process                                                  Stay in faith             create the future you ought to have                                               And where you ought                                                                 To be.

Be still
As broken hearted as i may be No one is as strong as me Shattered like a vase i may be But put me back together and I'll be fine you'll see Put me in a storm i may emerge Put me in a fire i may burn But put me in the ocean, I'll float ashore Of this one thing I am sure It's all about Finding Peace in any situation Cause life isn't guaranteed a happy ending
