I Am They!
"I am They”!

“They”
Are the Irish
The Black
And the Jew
“They’re
The innocent
All thrown
In the stew

"They”
Are your family
Your neighbor
Your friends
“They’re”
Used by bigots
As weapons
Again

“They"
Can be anyone
Anyone
You choose
“They’re”
Used as fodder
“They’re” an old
Racist tool

Silence
Silence

Silence speaks
It’s heard and it’s loud
Not saying a word
Says, I will allow

Silence wobbles
Unsteady it stands
Like a good ostrich
That blends with the sands

Silence is safety
With no point of view
Silence don’t matter
Until it is you

Silence is sneaky
It hides, it evades
It ducks and it weaves
Avoiding THEIR say

Silence is dull
No shine and no glow
Whoever said golden
Knows nothing at all

Silence risks nothing
No skin in the game
Don’t open the door
Just lean on the gate

Silence knows nothing
Don’t ask them the score
Three sleeping monkeys
Know nothing no more

Silence is guilty
Without a defense
The guilt will distill
In all their silence

I Wood Walk
I wood walk for leisure
I wood walk for me
I wood walk and listen
To old woods that creak

I wood walk at daybreak
I would walk and breathe
I wood walk while tasting
The scent of wet leaves

I wood walk and ponder
I wood walk the trail
I wood walk the winter woods
When I want to feel

I wood walk in rhythm
I wood walk alone
I wood walk and whistle
As birds sing along

I knock on the knotted pines
And walk right on in
Then roam the wooden pews
Of my church again

Rainy At My House
Rainy At My House

Torrents of rain
Flume for the gutters
Blankets of gray
Spread out above us

Treetops sashay
Swinging here and then fro
Like wild swing dancers
Commandeering the floor

Windows bead heavy
With water droplets
Some are seen racing
With weightful swiftness

Wrens still sing
With treetops for cover
It makes a great stage
As well as umbrella

Shhhhh of wet tires
Hog all the air
It's rainy at my house
But sunny somewhere

New Swear Word
New Swear Word

Tommy woke at 3 AM
To yelling, taunts and swears
This time Tommy heard his Ma
Use words he never heard

"Abuse” echoed through the house
Straight to Tommy’s ears
Cowering under covers
Tommy snored on every word

"I’m not going to be…
abused anymore!”
Tommy’s mother shouted
Sounding more like a roar

Tommy woke the next day
Then groggily recalled…
Is "abuse” a new swear word
He knew he had to know

Getting out the big word book
That Tommy always used
Tommy hoped to find
The answer to “abuse”

Tommy was dismayed
On all it had to say
“Abuse” was not a swear word
Though saw it everyday

Senior Serenade
Senior Serenade

I want to be alright
For the rest of my life
Have no more fears
On my coming years

Just have a home
I can call my own
With my own kitchen
Do my own cookin’

Just to live carefree
As free as I can be
Not a care for rent
In my retirement

Just to be at peace
With no enemies
Be a caring friend
To everyone I can

Yes, I’m getting old
And my fate’s untold
But if I had a wish
My wish is just for this…

I want to be alright
For the rest of my life
Have no more fear
On the coming years

Those Days
Those Days

Those days
Those days
They come to an end
What was back then
Cannot be again
Bottle it up
Sip from it when
You long for
The days
You thought would not end

Those days
Those days
Were just like that
Memorable times
We’ll never get back
It’s alright
Just dandy with me
Those days
Those days
Are sweet memories

Those days
Those days
My mothers baked bread
Still smelling swell
Just all in my head
That’s ok
For we all will see
Those days
Those days
Come back in our dreams

Those days
Those days
All those bygones
Treasure them well
They won’t last you long
Embrace what you loved
Forget all the rest
Those days
Those days
Were simply the best

School Of Life
School Of Life

Never travelled
’Round the world
But been
Around that block

Never really
Finished school
But read a
Many book

Didn’t chef
Le Cordon Bleu
But surely
I can cook

Didn’t train at
Juilliard
But feet danced
All they could

Never been to
Prison
But did
My own time

By building up
So many walls
In my
Own mind

It isn’t where ya
Went to school
It’s all in
Where ya been

I’ve been around
So many folks
Who’ve taught me
How to live

Town Full Of Sound
Town Full Of Sound

I use to live in
A town full of sound
With Roller Coasters
And Merry Go Round
Horns would blast
To sound an alarm

I use to live in
A town full of sound

I use to live in
A town full of sound
Pinballs were zinging
And barkers would hound
Foghorns were blaring
A mournful fog song

I use to live in
A town full of sound

I use to live in
A town full of sounds
Salt water taffy
Came clacking on down
The bandstand was swinging
Those Glen Miller songs

I use to live in
A town full of sound

I use to live in
A  town full of sound
Where all sorts of music
Played all over town
Screech of the crowd
As the Comet roared down

I use to live in
A town full of sound

Blackout
Bill MacEachern Dec 2023
Blackout

I sit in a blackout
What can I do
Wind is a howling
The rain's angry too

Windowsills rattle
High up on my floor
I live on the seventh
And hear every roar

I'm starting to find
A still quietness
Mixed with a thunder
Of solitudeness

I sit in a blackout
What will I do
I'll sit here and bask
In my gratitude

Ma’s Tree
Bill MacEachern Dec 2023
🎄 Ma’s Tree🎄

Bulbs, lights and tinsel
Ring memories
Each bulb a treasure
That went on Ma’s Tree

Unpacked with kid gloves
Like newborn baby’s
Kids dared not touch
Such fragility’s

Ma left the fun part
For all of us kids
Like licking the spoon
Us kids dug right in

Handfuls of tinsel
Were flung on Ma’s tree
Topped with her angel
High up on it’s peak

Guilt Distilled
Bill MacEachern Dec 2023
Guilt Distilled

It’s hard to turn away
From all of what I see
If I close my eyes
The guilt distills in me

When I write about
All I need to say
Sadly, I see
Love ones fade away

But if I turn my back
To all, that must be seen
Well, Then I risk to lose
My own humanity

Disorderly Conduct
Bill MacEachern Dec 2023
Disorderly Conduct

Keep to the right
Keep to the right
Teachers all taught
Keep to the right

Stay on the right
While we all walk
So it’s not chaos
Crossing crosswalks

Dodging and bumping
While in the store
Now it’s all madness
No order no more

Keep to the right
Is obsolete
It went in decline
For the…me me

Keep to your right
Or to your left
It’s about order
Not politics

Stay in your lane
Stay in your lane
It was so simple
Now it’s all lame

A Dorchester Christmas
Bill MacEachern Dec 2023
A Dorchester Christmas

Triple deckers decked in lights
Mostly colors, some just white
Christmas trees all dressed in tinsel
Glow at night though lace draped windows

Kids with shovels dot the streets
Digging out from Christmas Eve
Some with smiles, some with frowns
All can’t wait to run back home

In our clan were seven kids
We shared gifts like Irish twins
Sisters played their stereo
Brothers racked the pool table

On Christmas Day in Dorchester
Some gifts came from Globe Santa
Three sisters and four brothers
We had less and more than others

Rabbit Phone
Bill MacEachern Dec 2023
Rabbit Hole

I woke one morning
Everyone’s gone
We fell in that rabbit hole
In what we call phones

Gone is the laughter
It’s all lol
It’s not really funny
Not even giggles

Hello, Is that you
Or phisherman
You say you want
To be friends again

I miss the connections
That ring a ding a ling
Saying hello
With our voices again

I don’t want lyrics
I’d rather hear song
Volley’s of voices
Of words strung along

I woke this morning
Missing my friends
I’ll send you my feelings
In emoji sad grins

That Smell
Bill MacEachern Dec 2023
That Smell

That smell I know
But can not place
Is from my youth
A certain space

That smell I know
Is  so familiar
Musty and cold
Like an old root cellar

That smell I know
Brings me right back
Crawling, exploring
But not an attic

Now my nose knows
Like incense in church
That smell I remember
Playing under the porch

Everything Trees
Bill MacEachern Dec 2023
Everything Trees

They’re shade
From the sunshine
Shield from the rain
Pulp for the paper
And wood for whittling

They’re body’s
For climbing
Arms for a swing
Markers of time
And fruit for picking


They’re trunks
For the tapping
Billboards of love
Home for critters
High on up above

They’re kindling
For cooking
Heat in our hearths
Leaves for the looking
With your sweetheart

So everybody
Listen to me
Give a big hug
To the
Everything tree

Old Boy
Bill MacEachern Dec 2023
Old Boy

In the valley
Of my soul
Lives a boy
Who never grows old

The kid’s a keeper
Of my regrets
He holds the key
To all my secrets

He opens the book
Of shame and self doubt
Turning pages
To purge it all out

Chapters need reading
And read with a shout
Ones like
The Boy And The Older Adults

Deep inside
The young man resides
Living with scars
His needs unrealized

Gifts from within
Came with no guide
Art, words and music
So little applied

Outside now
He runs a lame man
Running as fast
As doubting feet can

Keeping his friends
At bay with his plans
Rarely giving them
All that he can

Same with music
And all his art
Never near finished
But boy what a start

Always the actor
Doing his part
Playing for laughter
With a sad heart

I Remember

I remember a time
When all was so bright
With bustling crowds
And neon lit nights

Covered wagon caterpillars
And bunnies of blue
Teacups that spun
You sat in them too

I remember the days
When scooters could fly
Pinball was king
And everything thrived

I remember the smells
Of hot dogs & beer
I remember it all
And wish it still there

We’re all children
Of the sea

Let us not wait
Till it’s too late
We’re all the same

Yesterday came
With winters first flakes
Just a light dusting
No snowballs to make

Out my window
Like a snowglobe
Soaring snowflakes
Dance all alone

Blowing first snow
Nothing too heavy
Just a light throw

Out my window
Through mornings night
Seeing first flakes
Was such a delight

Wingless Bird

I wasn’t taught
Reach for the stars
I never knew
It’s not too far

I knew to stop
Look both ways
And never touch
A burning flame

Encouragement
Was never heard
I left the nest
A wingless bird

Survival was
My only school
Doctorate in hit
And bachelors in *****

I left the nest
A wounded bird
Then found my wings
In written words

Of life’s memories

Life alone
Some can flourish
Gives one time
To live…

Boomers

Boomers

Bottle caps were currency
Pop sticks were our props
Maple seeds
Were whirly birds
Spinning like a top

Hopscotch drawn on
Down the streets
Jump ropes tied to reels
Double Dutch was fun to watch
Especially for the girls

Quarters pitched against a wall
Closest takes ‘em all
We played that game
With baseball cards
Some lost DiMaggio

We grew up fast
We learned the ropes
And mostly on our own
We’re called the Baby Boomers
We’re "like a rolling stone”

Getting old
I feel now how
It’s…not all gold

I feel it more
Since yesterday
I’d rather stay
Than go ’n' play

It’s not so bad
Don’t get me wrong
I’m really glad
I’ve lived this long

I travelled ‘round
By thumb 'n' car
Slept under bridges
In Florida

My pal Hohner
Tagging along
We’re always kissing
When blues come on

Been to rehab
Eyes wide open
We’re all in a struggle
We’re all a bit broken

I got to see
Niagara Falls
I got to hear
The lovebird call

I sweetly weeped
Obama’s win
And lived to see
Him win again

I feel it now
Growing old
All my memories
Just pure gold

Tomatoes are plump

Autumn near by
August is here
Season’s collide

Gardens grow fruitful
Leaves look luscious
Soon they’ll be painted
With natures brush’s

A paradise for picnics
Beach goers too
Air’s not so humid
Or sticky like glue

August is here
Relax and enjoy
Soon we’ll eat turkey
Then kid’s get their toys

"He flew the coop"
Was what they said
Though I knew
Better
Was we who fled
We who cried
We who hid

I lost a dad
A dad
I never had
A dad
Who never cared

I still recall
The willows
Tall
Weeping
Weeping for us all

Blowing to the wind
Giving
Swaying
Whatever comfort
It can

At the doorstep
Of our new home
Told
You’re not welcome
Told
We must go

Broken
To shattered
Then scattered about
"He flew the coop”
While we all bailed out

Furious Flame

Furious Flame

I once knew a love
Of passion and pain
Mad for each other
A furious flame

Shouldn’t have lasted
The years that we did
Made for each other
So Hot & torrid

Epic chapters
In each others life
Never dull
Just, not always nice

I once knew a love
Much louder than thunder
I don’t miss that clash
Though do miss the wonder

Role Playing With Fire
Bill MacEachern Nov 2022
Role Playing With Fire

Fact and fiction
Role play with fire
Black is now white
Truth now a liar

Shall I be silent
Blindfold my tears
Bury my head
Dismiss all my fears

Shall I do nothing
Sit on my fists
Ignore all the hatred
That surely exists

Shall I be deaf
Cotton my ears
Block out the drumbeat
Of doom in the air

If I see something
Shall I say something
Or just walk on by
Ignore what’s occurring

Shall I self censor
Let truth expire
While Fact & fiction
Role play with fire

Knight Dreams

Walk with me
In my dreams
Tell me all
Of everything

I’ll reply
With a smile
Then we’ll walk
And reconcile

Stroll along
To our song
Talk of things
Of years now gone

Reminisce
With our lips
Wouldn’t that be
Marvelous

I’m your Knight
You’re my Queen
We can meet
In my dreams

Amorous Odyssey’s

We’re for each other
It’s plain to see
All our countless
Mutuality’s

Like locknecked swan’s
Swooning on a pond
We’ll sing together
As we float along

We’re for each other
That , there’s no doubt
We always know
Just what we’re talking about

We’re puzzle pieces
Not quite the same
But, us together
Make a burning flame

We’ll hold our hands
Then share our hearts
And keep it steady
While love lights a spark

We’ll be more epic
Than Love Story
Set our sights on
Amorous Odyssey’s

Popeye
Bill MacEachern Oct 2022
Popeye

I’m a ruffian
I’m unrefined
Still unpolished
What’s mine is mine

I’m a ruffian
An un-tumbled stone
Got rough edges
So I live all alone

I’m a ruffian
Like Popeye says
"I am what I am,
And that’s all that I am.”

Awakenings

Awakenings

Waking thoughts
Fields are clear
Morning’s harvest
Reap idea’s

Grab a keyboard
Grab a pen
Or grab a ***
But start digging

Morning moments
Nurture notions
At this time
Our thoughts are potent

Love Song
Bill MacEachern Oct 2022
Love Song

I want to write a love song
On what I feel inside
I want to say I love you
In ways that make us cry

I want to sing it out
All my working days
Until I head back home
In your arms again

I want to show my love
In ways you’ll know for sure
Just like a waiting puppy
Just sitting by the door

I want to write it all down
On all you mean to me
And it will be our love song
As long as love will be

"Lang May Your Lum Reek"
Bill MacEachern Oct 2022
“Lang May Your Lum Reek"

Leave
A light on
Like
A fire aglow
Keep
One burning
As
A warm hello

Leave
A light on
Illuminate
The way
Let
Neighbors know
They’re
Welcome to stay

Leave
A light on
Not
Just for books
It’s says
You’re welcome
Come
Into my nook

Leave a light on
Its
Simple to do
If
Down turns them
Off
It’s
All up for you
