What makes a person go on
when he doesn't want to
is the answer to
where his heart lies.

In my poem,
There's a word that fits just right
with the word politicians.
And that word isn't 'beauticians'
Oh, no,
The word that fits is '*****'.

What am I willing to lose?

What am I willing to lose?
Am I willing
to lose you?
Am I willing
to lose the home
I’ve had for so many years?
Am I willing
to lose
myself?

The Moon is Setting in the West, And in the East...

Sun beam
Sun ray
First sun I see today
I wish I might
I wish I may
Have the wish I wish today

Cf. “Star Light, Star Bright,” a nursery rhyme of undetermined origin, dating to at least the 19th century.

At the end of the day - Tanka

My unrighteous friends
the sun shines equality
some faith is fateful
affected majorities
Resurected Politics

Not all worms are earthworms

RITUAL

I say the words
That may or may not help me
I say the names
That may or may not be heard.
I cry the daily tears
That may or may not heal me
And gather up the strength
To face another day of pain
Without a bird outside my window.
