#Suppertime
How do you describe A man so dramatic? You can recognize him From afar with his hat Always the gentleman
To be genius means To not follow the rules You don’t have to I wish to be smart But not self-important
Most women are cooks But a man who cooks Is a chef She cooks over and over To feed the masses
The strings that attach me To this world Ground me Yes they sometimes Keep me from flying
Traffic Irritation becomes a nightmare As the lines start to squiggle Bending in and out And the world starts its attack
I told everyone About you The ugly beast Inside of me You can’t hide
To be a true artist Must they be recluses Crazy mad or sick Or even better dead Show me a healthy artist
I’m watching a woman in a bikini In great shape with a swollen bell… Play with her puppy named Gatsby A Hispanic family comes The little girl dips her feet in
She is no longer Part of my life I’ve moved on My life is full With friends
I am unique In so many ways But while variety excites What we look for Is our common thread
How do you measure pain? All is relative and personal Even with one’s own self It is impossible to compare As memory distorts pain
A fresh faced country girl Who pioneers on her bicycle Catches the eye Of a transplant from Houston Love begins through letters
Your enthusiasm exhausts me This coke is flat The bubbles disperse Leaving a sticky and sweet Aftertaste
Water Beach pools and fountains Rivers creeks and waterfalls The sound The feel Floating Weightless
I know it’s for the best But it still hurts Hearing mothers complain For what I would give anything fo… My husband says no
