Poems
Mar 2015
Trenton Transit to Philly
Crackling windows and
shattered power lines
low and grumbling.
A tree spreads its wings
and uproots itself from the soil.
Downtrodden shacks stand tired
at half staff, barely paying attention.
***** roads
dirt roads
trodden
untrodden
my humble abodes
They've hammered
a rusty nail into
the northern star
and hung an advertisement there -
It's the brightest shiner in the sky
Weeping willow weepin'
Done crying, now a sleeping fellow
frozen fingers ask for change
Never really Done crying
done trying
Never really Done
A house
split down the middle
rusty rouge and a battered blue
A solemn lady
saunters with a stop sign
Pine tree pines to the left
Pensive pencil pours
pickled thoughts to paper
Pied piper pries
sleepy eyelids
pulls sick stories
pulsating pupils
monstrously
melodious musings
making meal of my darkness
