2 little doggies won in the fair
Kept in the family many a year

Both cherished and adored
Of course so all could see

Yet one day they took a walk
Not by vain ones but by a crook

Rest assured crook had no fear
Simply smiling at your dispair

Looks like another trip to the fair
Such a facade clutching you near

Yet richness lies in yourself and not Those fools whom sit around you

Though even fools can gather knowledge
Our poems are fabrics

knit with the dreams inside
laid out in the open
so may a passing eye
grant a glance

a pausing mind
decides for a fleeting moment
to wear

thinking them their own.

Like where you are off to you see
Just the right place for one to be

If there had only been ample notice
You would have with you a novice

For now tis a simple wait it be
Ever patiently under nearby tree

Upon return many blank pages
Will soak in ink from many ages

So athirst for a new awareness
Simply turn please don't digress

Even gone you have been with me
Whole time both sitting under tree

It's like trying to move those beads along faster toward the spiral of an hourglass
To reach that exact moment of knowing, reconciliation in growing together or otherwise
Only in being lost within you could I possibly step outwards offering anything of value
I'll always have that openness to help
us in any guiding way
The only thing I can do is be patient
As far as I know we both want to be together or at least I thought so

My black wingspan can shadow the Sun
Drawing eyes skyward from far below
The light shining off my beautiful bald head
Only reflects darkness for all others enough said
I'm not so special least that's the belief
Soaring patiently just for that moment
An ungracious landing so unlike my flight
Go figure I'm eager just to finally eat
Hopping and chomping hoping nothing draws near
For if something or someone gets too close
No I won't **** on myself that just cools me off
I'll regurgitate, lighten my load, get the hell out of there!
Because not a lick of predator runs through me
Just that big Mellow one, yet do you see?
Reducing final stages of decay effortlessly left behind
No need now at this point to thank me
Simply let me be and ****** stop judging me!
