"clingers" poems
**sand sculptures fashioned
as balmy beach impassioned
Summer love ... rationed ...
soft silky fingers
building sultry peaks lingers
caress ... as clingers ...
water fills spaces
fragile sand grains erases
breaking bridges bases ...
structures may subside
wet or dry causes landslide
weakens ... tumbles ... hides ...
granules recede
love, like sand, infiltrates need,
grows from special seed ...
complex designs stand
created mold ... hand in hand ...
love castles in sand ...

Boys and girls
You haven’t escaped
The confines of
Our small home town
20 years old and still wearing
The band t-shirts you bought
In high school
Ripped jeans, fading fast
Aporias
Unable to progress past
This world you were brought into
Static
In our small town
Lack of worldly knowledge,
Independent thought
Stuck
So much to explore
Experience
Run and leave
Our small home town
So much more
That you could do
If you only left
You would know
How vast this world
Freedom, allowance
Understanding
Escape and learn
More than just
The life
The people
The simplicity of
Our small home town

We worry about our thoughts,
The way we talk, the way we walk.
We are too easily embarrassed by the little "fails" we make each day.
When he only thinks they are funny, creating a lighter way,
to look at things, on the brighter side, you feel a little better,
about yourself, your flaw, all written in a love letter.
I like to write, it shared my emotions, Using metaphors,
and other figurative devices, techniques that are used as emotional cures.
You ever wonder if what you're saying is right,
or things you bring up, might give the poor boy a fright.
When really, he didn't say anything to bring that thought across,
just you assuming, by his ok, so you toss,
you toss your heart out to him even more, convinced you're a ******
He LOVES you, you want to deny it, you don't feel you deserved to be love. R.I.L... not a typo.
R.I.L , rest in love, for in love you are truly never rested enough, insatiable hunger and thirst for more,
either to give or receive, you want to make sure he's sure, that you're sure.
but surely one day, it shall rest, for true love, is behind the blinds, hidden in a corner, beware,
beware of the emotional damaged, the psychotics, the stalkers, the late night talkers, the clingers, the criers, the touchy, the huggers, the takers, the jealous, the moody, the miserable, the laughers, the lifetime movie watchers, the imaginations, the achy ones, the ones with the weird fetish.
For behind the wet paint sign, if you choose to ignore a warning,
you most likely will slip and fall, fall in love.
It is not something you can comprehend so quickly, but takes time to digest,
through our heart and pumped out again, by one of those weird symptoms mentioned above.
Well all you got to do is relax, truly sleep, kick back and relax,
let the mind sore and let your inner chi ride roller-coasters,
let it come back, lets wake up and sing,
shrugs her shoulder it's girl thing.

I often fill my pockets up
With all sorts of stuff
From breath mints to deodorant
When there's a need to freshen up
Along with a dime or two
For those important calls
When I need directions
For the times that I am lost
My favorite flavor of chewing gum
Double the pleasure, Double Mint
Which most times slides from the wrapper
Where I just kindly brush the lint
Undoubtedly as always
There's a few string clingers on
Which in wisdom I save for later
For that urgent urge to floss
One or two pet rocks
That along the road I found
I just put this part in
To give you something to think about
I sometimes put my hands in my pockets
Though there's barely any room
Still a hand sometimes need a rest
If it's got nothing to do
It's little wonder I fill them up
With all sorts of stuff
Cause don't cha know when it comes to stuff
You can never have enough

all a teacher can do is learn and live,
see.
Situationical, long ago, tradition
Teachers tell stories,
with force. Whacks and such.
The reason, once, one time,
the ruler to the knucks
was to loosen a stuck clutch o'
clingers to the edge, who knew what
could be known,
who were
witnesses,taught to see
perceiving sub til ity plowing furrows
through explosions of new math,
new bombs, new moms,
new wars for no reasons, the edge
clinger fingers
let go, just before
a teacher who
they knew learned,
as he lived,
to hear whos
beyond the bubble's edge.
slip
yet no sense
{clique}
Filter Heinlein through Vonnegut,
squeeze the dregs,
sort each bubble by whos heard.
--Suess, a gain, point ought ever one,
heare that? That is an echo. A bubble pop echo,
in the halls of all imagined worlds
redeemed by children seeing the meaning
wave form on the GB scale storys are sung to.
Waiting is, on the BE scale
the ceiling leaks in the poet's prison,
but his window faces west,
so he is pleased to watch
the wind he claimed
bring rain. And so it goes.
How long do stories live these days?,
Asked the peacemaker, in the distance.
