Poems
Nov 2011
Just in case you forget.
Know how to trace;
to recognize your boundaries.
Don't capture someone's words;
hold them with tender fascination.
Know that electric spark in your torso;
is human, let the movement lead you.
Keep those calluses on your finger tips;
measures your joy, you know it.
An elastic band around your wrist;
won't stop the bruising thoughts.
Stay away from armed danger;
your mind may become a war zone.
Listen intently to subconscious thoughts;
it's your mother's playground.
Never let actions be seen as mistakes;
sense the chaos, a good thing.
When your hair is no longer chestnut;
stop looking in mirrors, look at self.
When your eyes are no longer pure;
don't lose YOUR sight.
When time to leave;
don't depart with fire, but a soft wind.
