Oh Ho Ho
So you thought
That I’d forgotten
I’d forgotten you
Oh Ho no
No I hadn’t
I simply waited
For the tide
To come in
And take me
Out to see
With you sea

QuittingYou
Quitting you
Was harder
Harder so
Much harder
Than loving
Quitting you
Oh loving
Was easy
But quitting
Quitting you
Was impossible
So rather
Than that
I chose
To love
Quitting you
ThatGnat
And then there’s that
One that one gnat
Buzzing around in darkness
Deemed to but harass
Keeping me awake swatting
Keeping me up swearing
Switching on the light
Showing him my might
To end this plight
And settle into night
Until that is you
Discover there’s actually two
SpitSplashSpit
Like a nervous stutterer
Standing in front of
A heckling crowd I
Turn on the spigot
Only to hear spit
Splash spit and stop
And amidst my chagrin
Walk off the stage
Words written but never
Said like a forlorn
Lover unable to post
The sonnets he’d written
ComingBack
And like returning to
The highland getaway cabin
After a particularly devastating
Winter I stare upon
The blank page upon
Where I would go
To hide from coldness
Arms where I found
Comfort lips where I
Sought refuge laughter which
Blocked out the blinding
Heated light of despair
Only to find them
All gone these revelers
Once the wine and
Warmth turned to ash
