(2015)
My body is perfect —ly spotted The white spots I tell myself Are my Bambi spots
If I could paint a man Eyes so dark they shine Brooding and stormy Til the smile breaks through If I could paint a man
Inspirational quotes Are full of crap Whatever meaning Is lost In the sea
Nothing makes people flee Like reading them poetry They value it in theory But please don’t make them read Surprise me with your verse
Strong hands Hold me down To the bed I say to them I have to go
She is no longer Part of my life I’ve moved on My life is full With friends
A healthy pancreas Is like a transmission Seamlessly shifting gears In type 2 diabetics Wear and tear
Don’t talk down to me I am not a child! Even children Deserve respect
Love is sincere Sincerely Wanting to connect Love makes you crazy Insanity that makes you fly
A conversation With a true friend Leaves your life richer Maybe with a laugh A smile on your face
Would I rather be A younger me? More productive Stronger Would i have to give up
To be genius means To not follow the rules You don’t have to I wish to be smart But not self-important
I had it all In my head And then I said Words I do not know which ones
If I could make you smile Just once Sincerity From an appreciative heart It would make all of it worthwhile
I cannot apologize For writing what I feel inside If it is hard to read It is harder to live I will understand
