Left Foot Poet
did you take your meds?
remember you glasses?
forget the theater tickets, again?
why are you doing up,
poetry writing, you idiot at three am?
*** you didn't, did you,
vote Republican again!

since when are jeans and your
good sneakers
"dressing up,"
even in your absurd notions of fashion,
when you are taking me to the Opera?

any idea where the vanilla fudge pint went,
you-on-a-serious-diet-BS-not?

you lost a pound but forgot to mention,
you gained three immediately thereafter?

your wet towels to the hamper make it,
but your odiferous socks and disgusting underwear are just
too much for you to bear?

she's a pain in my side,
and other circular places unmentionable
but most of all,
most happily,
she's a pain always,
*on
and
by my side
an ouch poem

He's a writer,
He pours his heart on to the page.
The broken pieces make up the lines,
Of pain, love and age.
All the missing pieces?
They fill in the rage
It's a shame his wisdom doesn't shine through
Then he might just write about you

He's a dreamer
He fills the world with his soul
The cup runs over with his secrets and desire
To love, to live, to share
All that he feels he lacks
It torments him so
It's a shame not everyone understands
Or they may just write about him

He's a lover
He doesn't want to fight
He wants to dream and write
Fill the world with happiness and words
Words of love, of laughter
Of poetry
And wherever comes after
It's a shame you can't see
Because his love was lost to me

He's a fighter
Who knows only how to love
He wants to court and woo
Fill a heart with tender dreams
Unseen horizons and happiness
Life complete
And whatever comes after
It's a shame we can't find
The way to ease his gentle mind

He is all of these
And yet he is nothing
Everything
All encompassing
Take a good look into his soul
I'm not sure what YOU will see
But I see a mirror looking inside of me
Deep to the core of my being
It would be a shame if you dont look too
The reflection will show the best part of you

He is part of you
And yet none of you
All your hopes
And your everything
Look deeply within your heart
Tell me what you think you see
For he is every part of you
That you wish to be
Take a long and lasting look
Take out your quill, let's write this book
Well,  Quin said he had writers block.  
I said "Here, I'll help you out, write with me"
This is what we created...  Enjoy! :)

(Pffft, writers block? Yea right!)

today i took a trip through the meadows to remind
myself of what the grace of auburn leaves felt like
to the pallet of my eyes.

You kissed my eyes shut
And laid me to sleep,
Now this landfill of hope
Is a wasteland of dreams.
And your words are never as true as they seem.
