I wonder if I'll travel again
Don't have much money
Ben Shapiro is a racist
Adam ******* is funny

I'd like to see Seattle once more
San Francisco too
Portland's Japanese garden
2032

                   with you

Shakespeare in Staunton
            Young actors
                  Music!

America is shallow
Don't believe the hype
But I like Reno, Nevada
Little Sage Ridge School

Literature teaches an ethic
Not just the love of beauty
How right it is to care
Harold Bloom was a fool

I like City of Ember
Plato for the tweens
Fly to Tokyo
Bullet trains are cool!

small victories
the little way
    patience

Why keep writing?
I can't really say
Quiet in the night
My sons: callooh! callay!

I like St. Therese
I like the little way
Poems to compose
Basketball to play

              hey hey

The bipolar is my burden
I try to bear it well
Wish I was a shaman
Ain't no tongue can tell

      Todd Witherell

It's been almost 10 years
Since I started writing the poems
Burning down the days
Awake in the restless night

Will anything get through?
Susan Meek not Sue
Carolina blue
The little way is light

              mystic flight
