The rich narcissistic aunt visited today . Dominated the conversation so no one could speak . Ate up all the candy she brought over and then stood up to leave . Then she noticed me hiding behind the chair and in a demanding tone she asked me "What are you going to grow up to be boy ?"
I emerged from behind the chair and said ,

"Disappointed !"
Helicopter seed
comes to rest on the green moss —
A princess in bed

Talk straight,
Or you will not hear.
Walk straight,
Or you go to jail.

Klimt Mused A Painting

What is,
An innuendo of a k.i.s.s?

I take them all the time.
But no one notices.
Except me.

im on a roll,
with imagination.
I have to admit.
It's addicting.
What fault did you find in me?
Why do you treat me like you don’t know me?

You made me cry with your words,
Forgetting the imagery we painted together!

I desire nothing from you,
Just remember, I still love you the same!

Whether you look at me or not,
I always follow your shadow everywhere.

Paige
Before she is your wife
She is my mother
Before she is my mother
She is a sister
Before she is a sister
She is a daughter
Before she is a daughter
She is a human
And how do I live with the fact that she is just as mortal as
The rest of us
