Poems

Read my last poem

The one changed to Now

Inside those lines

One cavalier chow

Goodbye to all

My time has run out

Leaving behind

One slaphappy shout

Nothing nefarious going on,

I'm attentive to sober vision

Only ganja alone personage, 

allowed in THC-ed decision

Don't go away

Sit tight awhile

Caress my heart

Now with your smile

Don't go away

Look eye to eye

Cradle my soul

Now say goodbye

Don't go away

Stay till I'm gone

Au revoir my life

Now a swan song

I'm looking for giggles

To be glad just like that

Ready for giggling

At the drop of a hat

I'm seeking out giggles

To salute instant glee

Hopped up on giggling

At the heart of pure chi

Oh, maid MeGiggle, jiggly and fat

Giggle me this, MeGiggle me that

MeGiggle cleans very bad karma,

MeGiggle says don'tgetnoneonya

We claimed we didn't care

my gosh how sad and blue

I rebuke emboldened false,

manifesting tried and true

Life is so funny

A blink of an eye

No walk in the park

And then time to die

Life is real funny

A dark comedy

No bed of roses

And so gossipy

Life is damn funny

A cutting cartoon

No beer and skittles

And gone all too soon

I get to ride an old bike

And swim in the sea

I get to be with my girl

And feel mostly free

I get to pen lots of poems

And write on a site

I get to share with my twin

And do what is right

I get to grow old and wise

And give all I can

I get to love and be loved

And be a good man

Oh we had a path to get huge, and basketball wasn't it

oh my gosh I see now, just how this doesn't mean shit

our journeys probably music, comedy, tennis or chess

I'm okay with all of it, I've forgiven myself for the rest

Live for today

But hark back to the past

Take every loss

And keep holding on fast

Live here and now

But remember to grow

Feel every flop

And keep letting them go

Live long and well

But be mindful of guise

Own every fault

And keep waxing to wise

Look into the mirror

Look deep into your eyes

Keep on looking plainly

And let go all the lies

Seek out true reflections

Seek truth and nothing more

Keep on seeking oneness

And let your selfhood soar

My lack of self-acceptance

not creating my own mean

Not embracing my identity

existentially ruins dreams!
