I came into the world about the
Third week of 68 my B/C stated
Barely 4 months old

Kept me wondering if his blad...

Restless spirit, I summon thee,
Release me from your hold,
Can’t you see, the light is setting you free?
It’s time for you to go.
My mind is confused; my heart feels used
Since you forced your way into my soul.

You took it upon yourself

If you’re gonna allow your brain
To become an attraction
For other people‘s distractions,
Make sure the monies
Are profitable and well spent.
The last thing you need
Is folk taking up space in your head
Without paying rent.

Remarkable memories lost in time

somewhat good, stuck between

the light was lit
an eternal flame
burning on the front porch
it was left on for you
the front door

If you are a man be a man

if you are a woman be a woman

Keep on going no matter what

Don't stop pushing through life even when challenges arise

A disagreement between her and him came to a mutual agreement

He loves and collects guns; she loves and collects purses

The argument from her was, why so many guns he can't shot but one gun at a time

from my freshly minted fifteen-year-old eyes

windshield wipers
in the spring rain storms
