Poems
Aug 2020
Drums
Crushing soul swept
Blown by the force of human
And rises within me
Fight
****** temptation
And fists to swing
And break
You
Me
My might not disclosed
Betrayed by my face
Shocked
Flatlined mouth
No words
Not any
Come a day
Without it
This that would cause
Me to bend down
And deliver it
My face ticking like a bomb
Twitching conservatory
What remains
A frown
Awaits chagrin
Awaiting comfort
Ease and freedom from this
And others that would trumpet
Victory
But low key
Easy listening
Others that carry
A smile in pocket
To take out
Whenever
You know
Just whenever
And just like that man
I mean I’d be fine with
Just like that
Man
Casual
Careless whenever
It’s cool man it’s cool
And I’d mean it
Sincerely
No clenched fist
But flat palm offered for
Shake
Or even
A low five
Ya dig?
I know I would
Will
I see it clearly
Behind eyes
That squint
Fierce lines
Of battle
The drums are too loud
Boom my mind
But I feel
Wrists are tired
With
Rat a tat tat
(Finger tapping)
I’ll twist this tissue
And wait
