Fathers and Daddies
Men that teach
Guide and groom
Boys to men
One day a
Special day recognizes
Those things passed
Down like a
Baton in life’s
Relay race sometime
Dropped yet always
Finished remember those
That made you
You
Happy Father/Daddy day

Vacation (for Zeke)
Far away you
Are on a
Quest slaying the
Dragons of stress
Relaxing near water
Like sunning sea
Lions marooned with
Sweating umbrella drinks
Reclining you forget
Until my face
Appears like an
Apparition in an
Ice cube reminding
You that you
Belong here with
Me
Games (for Christopher)
In checkers you’re
One of two
Things you move
The same whichever
One you are
In chess you’re
One of one
Thing you move
The same depending
What you are
When did we
Switch games making
Labeling me one
Thing and restricting
My movement rather
Than being free
To be me
Morning
The morning is
As peaceful as
A cemetery everyone
Is staying home
Including those under
Earth even the
Ghouls have lost
Their voices instead
Flying about silently
Happy
It’s impossible to
Be happy being
Anyone else besides
Yourself want to
Be happy be
The truth in
You
