Mixed Up

Mixed up broken tainted and back to the beginning
free verse is compelling and my fish is insignificant to
all those who don't care
but I know one day he will be big like a bear flying like a hawk in the deepest of oceans in the milky way

WAITING

for nothing that seems like everything
on the way to destiny, the end of the beginning and the beginning of something

Untitled

A dog in the warm sun is happy
Dogs like to play Frisbee
Happiness is playing Frisbee with my dog

Untitled

ants scurry around trying to find food birds nest to protect eggs life goes on even if we don't

Untitled

poetry does not have to be about suicide
poetry can be self expression
poetry without depression is known called art

Untitled

the cricket chirps through the whole night
the stream trickles all day
the big city pollutes around the clock
