I have loved
and been loved
so many times
in my life
that I feel
like an embarrassment
of riches and
that when I’m
asked why I
don’t want another
I often say
why chuck another
log onto an
already tall fire
I’d rather you
take the log
yourself and build
your own fire
attracting those who
want to be
warmed by it
I’d rather stay
cold for awhile

ChinnyChinChin
I have this spot
on my chin where
hair has never grown
at first embarrassed I
tried a chin comb-over
but the sides met
only for a while
until someone pointed out
that when I think
I rub that spot
just like I think
the boy who found
the lamp did rub
conjuring up all sorts
of genies and wishes
but mine came true
when it was you
who pointed that out
TheirsNotYours
The lesson
of my
life to
learn is
not love
but rather
that love
can sometimes
corrupt rather
than comfort
we have
free will
to choose
and some
people frequently
choose harm
love them
too those
their choices
but theirs
aren’t yours
yours to
choose is
whether or
not you
can love
them despite
those that
they make
and not
be yours
JustJust’s
Life is
just just’s
just for
a while
just because
and naturally
it’s just
a wheelchair
some people
think that
what’s important
is the
thing that’s
talked about
whereas I’m
a believer
of the
just’s for
the just’s
give time
for another
to adjust
to the
startling thing
WateringCan
I think that
you might be
my next muse
and before you
get all woogy
try to understand
this that some
of us are
plants and some
of us are
the watering can
which is which
never really matters
