You took everything from me
and gave it to her
you took our conversations
and had the same ones with her
you took our inside jokes
and made her think she came up with them
but worst of all
you gave her my nickname
the one you used to call me all the time
the one that used to remind me of you when someone called me it
but now it just reminds me of your relationship with her
you gave her my nickname
and it felt like a string had snapped
the last piece of what held us together
its all gone
you gave it all to her

A marvelous beast is the giraffe,
Whose neck seems to stretch by the half.
He nibbles the trees,
While swaying with ease,
And makes other creatures just laugh.

love is a tricky thing to navigate.
to find the right people --
your people.

the ones who love you
for you,
and love you
endlessly.

it's not always easy to find,
you might not have a group
of some
like others.
but a few is enough --
more than.

you just need a little bit of love
in your life,
and you can find it
anywhere you go.

People laugh when one says
—I am afraid of the death.
What they don’t get is,
they should be afraid if one day
one said —I am not afraid to be dead.
I for one, not afraid to be afraid
for I afraid I won’t be afraid of the loss of me.

one hand
clutching a quill

one hand writes
another pulls the bow

a goose on the moor
will leave a feather

mankind will battle
with quill or arrow

0ne can apologise for lack of concentration
but it sure does tell its own story

'tight lines' a fisherperson wishes for others and themselves

a mind bereft of long drawn out poetry reading
all lines longer than a few plus a few more
all are beyond reach all epic poems beyond my ken
my ken my mind my uncompromising truth on a worm fishing
