Damnation

I’m not saying 
that breaking up
is like dying
but it is
in one aspect
When someone is
ready to go
they often stay
not for themselves
but for others
the kindest thing
that anyone can
ever do for
anyone else is
let them go
when they’re ready
don’t hang on
causing them to
that’s called damnation

ConsiderThis

And we think that 
All we want is
Love but what about
Living this world promises
Like a horny teenager
To respect us in
The morning but with
Each morning comes their
Broken promises leaving me
To wonder just how
Dispensable does this world
Consider me to be

Mommy!

It is truly amazing

How something as simple

As a cold can

Reduce even the mightiest

The confident and articulate

Into nothing more than

A mewing sniffing toddler

Crawling under the covers

And asking for mommy

This is what I

Think when they say

Even the old will

Turn into young again

DisSins

And yes once again

I had my nightmares

Of greed and power

But they weren’t mine

I simply facilitated them

By my own dis-sins

Of disinterest and disloyalty

Dishonesty and disturbance

Disprove disarm and disgrace

Distant dislike and disappoint

Aren’t we all culprits

In crimes we allow

By disavowing the disemboweling

Of our own countrymen

Stand up stand together

And always stand strong

Against those who oppress

NewsBadOrOtherwise

It hit hard like

Fresh cold mountain air

Making me gasp choke

News that wracked me

Like a lynch mob

Making me retreat from

The outside in as

The dust of devastation

Settled in my heart

My mind reeled a

Deep sea lure taken

And run unable to

Pull it back in

The news whatever it

Was then numbed me

And like a criminal

I denied my culpability

It was that bad
