(2015)
Stubbed toe Red light Ugly words Ugly mouth To shock
I feel like crap Most days I have a lot going my way I am loved I can smile
May sun is warm An old friend You have missed June sun Still smiles
My sister’s cookies Chocolate chip Got my nephew to Say her name For the first time
The medication is not me But neither is the sickness it tre… You may hear its effects In my voice In my opinions
No es solo la tristeza Aunque si lo estoy No es por el desanimo Aunque si me desanimo No es tan sencillo
No pido disculpas Por escribir Lo que siento Lo que llevo adentro Lo que vivo
I crave stability Neither wandering spirit Nor home-body Yes I’d love to travel But the foundation
Traffic Irritation becomes a nightmare As the lines start to squiggle Bending in and out And the world starts its attack
I wallow in my sadness As it pools up It has not swallowed me Who floats above its surface This surface
How can I write how I feel When what I feel is nothing? How can I tell you what I need, What is wrong? When what is wrong
Down to earth I am but of dust Dust particles I see floating in the air Carbon molecules
Uh-Oh! Cranky mood Throws a fit Over cereal Cheerios
Hospitality To love a stranger It need not be much For one who has little Will appreciate it
A conversation With a true friend Leaves your life richer Maybe with a laugh A smile on your face
