Grape seeds stacked

Like rounded things shouldn't be

Slightly cracked

In ways you can't unsee

Plans for Vineyards

Cider from trees

Gathering dust

Becoming debris
I miss you
John B Nov 2017
Grapes are good but wine is better

The older your wine more wet it'll get her

The longer she's wet the more she will need

The longer you are the more she will plead

The bigger it is the more it will please

If she asks for seconds then more you should bring

Now aren't you thankful you learned good cooking
John B Nov 2017
Ask not that you be followed blindly

But lead by example

To be followed for its virtues

In this every follower is a leader

Providing a template for success

By succeeding

Harrison hangs horizontal

His hangover hating him

Horrendously heaveing

Hideous hit he had

Horrors hover

However holden his honor

Level with me

Slay the elephant leaned

On the mezzanine door

Let the pachyderm bleed

Wash us clean with the truth

In a shower of pink

Yes our roots go deep

Our fruits can't take seed

But they taste so sweet

Over ripe, in need

To be carried free

Too become a tree

As strong as we
John B May 2017
I don't want to be rude

I don't want to intrude

I want a Starry Sky

And warmth at night that has your smell

So in this interlude

While I toil with attrition

I work on a me your mine in

And hope he finds you well

I tried to keep the wavefront coming

Close to scare but never there

I fear that now I've skipped the shore

To see what comes

Your nevermore

Washed away in wake of pain

The cards say that I've not but gained

I never came at you with games

But here afoot, I'm a winner
Apparently...
John B Mar 2017
What changed

You never had anything bad to say

We spoke so little and there's nothing new

I fear he's doing this not you

Its strange you don't tell me

Last we spoke you promised not to be a stranger anymore

But I'm blocked on everything And its got me low

How do I know that your breathing

How do I share those feelings that explode from me

Not here among the rabble

If not for my pet I'd have gone home

I just want to go home

But she would miss me like I miss you

I'm not so selfish.
Id glass this rock faster then you can say "what now?" If I was so easily swayed but if its her I want a why and if its him I want to see him suffer for decades. So to just suddenly no longer be a habitable planet. It does not pass. I'm angry and hurt. Mostly disappointed. Ready for war with our world but hung up on a girl.
