(This is another poem I wrote when I was a teenager)
To be a friend or not to be
That's the question you ask me
You want me to do something that's wrong
I didn't know confusion . . . more

Hank could have been somebody,
But the big breaks never came
Or he took the wrong road or
The load was too heavy
Or not heavy at all, he
Ought to have made the big time,
But he made it small. . . . more

Broken poisoned arrow of trust
pierces sunken heart:
bleeding silently,
with quaking muscle tearing off
pieces, pieces
I hold them out
in loving hands
but find myself alone.
Screaming mutely . . . more

Concern clouds the eyes,
an impending storm of doubt
rolling through the mind;
yet creation pulsates,
on the brink of blossoming.

Time
Time
slips by silently
in a rush.
Unstoppable
as it passes
leaving only memories
in its wake.

I want to talk
I want to speak
Will you listen?
Will you hear?
Or will you be like
all
the
others
and smile
and nod
Without listening?
Without hearing the words?
I want to speak
I want to talk
What is . . . more

Life is a gift,
we desire and we admire.
Life is a highway,
we drive and we thrive.
Life is a service,
we interact and we support.
Life is a struggle,
we succeed and we proceed. . . . more

So I promised to be like Colombus.
Set a new foot forward in a different land.
And at my hand
the power of change.
What do you do
with choice?
I think
I attempted to step forward
with my best foot. . . . more

These birds are psychotic
they break through my dreams
crying with daylight
in another two moonfuls
they'll abandon me
like a springtime lover decked in pink leaves
only to crumble in . . . more

Mama told me
keep away
He'll never stay
He'll walk out on you.
Mama told me
he's not your kind
he'll cross the line
he'll bring hurt to you.
But Mama couldn't . . . more

Spirit,
Leading me through
Errant valleys of life.
Pathways pardoned, purified souls.

Reach to the sky and grasp the wind
For in it rainbows have melted
A secret song of tapestry
With threads of hope for you to seek
Sigh not for that you do not know
For change is but a . . . more

I want to dedicate this to my daughter, since watching her coach and perform inspired my to write this. I hope she likes it.

I sit alone sleeping,
as I lie wide awake.
Hysterically laughing,
as I cry at my fate.
I see their mouths moving,
but a word I can't hear,
Hatred is growing,
as kindness disappears.
Upon the highway . . . more

Slowly awaken
unwilling to open
eyes to a nightmare
no longer there
one eye opens slowly
left glancing then right
the other snaps open
both clear of sight
undimmed by the night

so much unlike
where he was from

Patience, Patience
A sound in my mind
Dark word playing tricks on me
Patience you say but
My soul and my heart
Don't want to wait another day.
Patience is a . . . more
