is a Masterpiece Not all that I write is sweetness and light but hard like a bed of nails. Some make it fine on line after line Some of it moves like snails It's witty It's shitty Some tell and some don't It comes from the heart and told by the throat Some of it sails and some of it sinks It glows oh-so-brightly or suddenly stinks It comes from the heart in part after part and leaves when it tells its tale And sometimes land a minnow and sometimes I land a whale. |
I look back now and then to see where I came from. I sometimes joy at what I see The pain I feel if only I look closely and remove the fantasy in wanting to see things other than what they were at those times I feel the longing to go back to the safe time that has passed 
Bubba's Debut, 8 x 10" (She's making memories.) But on looking deeply I see the failures And at that moment, realize I must go forward because my mind has moved beyond that Such a small insight And yet How many are stuck at that truth and cannot move from that spot And so remain forever looking back with closed eyes. |
not doing by doing in my mind Like once I found this corner made by two large walls and shouted at their reaches that echoed back my calls As eyes searched these parallels and perpendicular planes I visioned naught but just straight lines a traveler just of trains And all I really had to do was just to turn around But me I faced in corners My trip had come aground I dreamed of spirals with circles To fear, I reasoned trains But me I faced in corners with perpendicular planes I pictured dreams and made up schemes with all kinds of solutions And I rigged thoughts of every size I made my own pollution I pictured picturing travel along the winding lanes But me I faced in corners with perpendicular planes. |
