Poems
Mar 2014
Strip the City
Coffee in a teacup
Hard-boiled egg
Remote control
Squeaky chair leg
And a butterfly pillbox filled with red white and blues
Watch the uninspired TV
And become a pathetic ghost
Excuse me while I implode
I wrote a check to Mother Nature
But it bounced
Strip the city of me
Youβll find nothing to envy
And when I die in my dreams
My eyes become the milky way
My body is a tree
With my mind and heart branching out towards heaven
