Pain, despair
Joy , elation
Swirling, blending
Competing
No singular hue
Hoping in shades of tangerine
For a few . . .

Free
Debt paid to society
Free
Mama's home cooking
Free
Lovin' my woman
Free
Do something with my life
Free
Can't work here with a record
Free
No Grant for my education
Free

Aimless to me , to him, rather prophetic.
He had walked these same miles for days upon end
Sign in hand, "End is Near" , his message did rend
Ranting . . .

This was found among the meager belongings of an eighty nine year old, nursing . . .

2009 is here at last
2008 is fading fast
A little wish to from me to y'all
Lets break down that political wall

Should I acquire another dog
A collie pup I'd choose
A wee fur ball of red and white
To chew up all my shoes
I'd play with her from dawn till dusk
And teach her to roll over
I'd call . . .

When she asks,
I am transported to a place
Where she is six once again
Cajoling with no effort
Tilted smile to melt the ice caps
I cannot deny her
I never have learned . . .

Of light, of breath
Unable to find peace
Restless sighs as day breaks anew

Darkly beckons
Unable to deny
Sleepless again, his fault I fear

A row of bottles on my shelf
Caused me to analyze myself.
One yellow pill I have to pop.
Goes to my heart so it won't stop.
The little white one that I take
Goes to my hands so they won't shake. . . .
