(2014)
Beside you I am At peace Our love A connection
If I could make you smile Just once Sincerity From an appreciative heart It would make all of it worthwhile
Uh-Oh! Cranky mood Throws a fit Over cereal Cheerios
My soft spot My sweet boy I’d do anything for Who convinced me Little boys are the best
The human heart ...leaps and jumps ...races and sings ...sighs and groans The treacherous heart can
Que te cuentan un chiste Las palabras se traducen Pero el humor no se puede Por si no lo entiendes Ríete
Clinical smells Polite strangers The only thing worse Than being here Is to not be able
Well-intentioned stranger Eyeing me limp through HEB Why would you ask If I stepped on a nail? How do you know
To be a true artist Must they be recluses Crazy mad or sick Or even better dead Show me a healthy artist
Does it hurt? When you prick your finger No I do this just for fun Our fingers lose feeling
I don’t expect Diabetes education For the public But chances are You know one
The whole world Aches and groans Do you feel her pain? The human in me Wants to heal mankind
Good secret Bubbles inside Let me out Bad secret Indigestion
The medication is not me But neither is the sickness it tre… You may hear its effects In my voice In my opinions
I love to hear poetry read Rather than performed I love to hear each word Appreciated Rather than memorized
