Bombs cannot destroy love
just as love cannot bomb anyone.
all acts of terror are bound to fail in the end
As the animal nature
Pulls me to your door
A hunger driven
By the sense
Of getting more
I knock a little louder
Let me in!
You know
I like to stop by
Every now and then
Tell him it's your papa
Send him out the back
Tell 'em you need cigarettes
To go get a couple packs
We can go somewhere else
If oh dummy just won't leave
Tell 'em your sister is waiting
Over at your brother Steve's
Cause you know my love
Animals have to feed
...
Inspired by the Animal Nature in me.

arm in arm
hand in hand
a vision of love
let it be seen
affection rule
spread shared truth
children need this.
(as do we all)

The basin drains her polluted blood as wine envelopes morose
Every minute is a memory, onset of her blanketed comatose
Vying in a fog of icons and myths, words always fail them
From every misread evil that is disposed of improperly
From every neighbor or friend eternally mute again
From every gilded pattern that leaves a cuff for the eyes
From every fetching barroom, where all such nadir lies
KG
In a rhyming
Commentary
Or simply in poem
Anyway to convey
Will you please
Come home
Never leave me
Never die
Lay with me
In an eternal lie
Hold me tighter
Then love can bear
Please come home
Oh thoughtless stare
...
Traveler Tim
I was trying
To think of
The words
To convey
To explain
The reason
Why good
Loving
Fades

When up
From chance
A memory dawn
Of her and I
Before we
Went wrong

And there it was
Love's mysterious maze
If we would
Simply turn back
We could surely replay
The love we felt
In our former days
...
Traveler Tim

Can true love really ever die?
Of course, over and over
If you let it.
