Beauty Before Sustenance
That year caterpillars ate
The Cabbages-
No soup but
A flighty crop
Of White-Winged
Butterflies

Costa Mesa
South coast days on end
The ante meridiem
Married to summer
People in constant motion
To the merry-go-round we go
To the merry-go-round we go
In the center
Like the mobile over my bed
Where the heart beats
Where our eyes see in teleidoscope
Inside the lines are brighter
And wider and envelop
The journey in itself
Is the gift

rick
a truthful poem
I lie
and
I lie
and
I lie
I hide my behavior
to keep you safe.
I keep quiet
not to offend you.
I agree with you
to keep you happy.
I walk on eggshells
for you and
it’s never enough.
I lie
and
I lie
and
I lie
but when the truth
arrives at that
final moment;
jaws will drop
plates will shatter
dogs will growl
and
you’ll be long gone
after seeing what
a ghastly beast
I am
but for now
I lie
and
I lie
and
I lie
to keep us
together.

stepfather
all that pain
and belittlement
you served me
day and night
when no one
was looking
made the little
man within you
feel much, much,
much bigger
but now you
stand before me
weeping
with no teeth
and the big man
within me
has forgiven you.
