My son turns 16 tomorrow
Keep him to me close
Movies in the morning
A kind of holy ghost

All these little poems
My lonely little life
Keep him company
Sophia in the strife

                    16!

I'm not an important person
I give no interviews
Kinda sad inside
I have the moody blues

55 and falling
Am I late along?
Sad. So very sad.
Rama Lama ding ****

Struggle with mental illness
Most of my adult life
Worry for my children
Chaos from my wife

Ordinary dailiness
I get a monthly injection
Slowly guacamole
Silence be protection

                  Hope!

My moment may be over
Sleep perchance to dream
Laid away in books
Point guard for my team

My sons are growing older
Tomorrow turns 16
Protection, please. Protection.
Rothko blue and green

                      Tired.

It had to be poetry
Just had to be
O Life! Multiply
Please protect my 3

               Si.

Jesus got mythologized
The human mind in need
The cremation of Sam McGee
A pal's last need a thing to heed

I woke up in Charlotte
Poem in a dream
3710
I play for my team

               Silent Scream
