Needs a better title. Empty power: Shattered glass hiding in hollowed past. Bright of night blinded by insight. Dusk be dawn cowardice so long. Panic with lust there is no trust in rusted bust. Shallow down the hollow well of tomorrows. Swim ...

This is a Job Hunt poem I threw together for a humorous speech contest. Later, I also used a copy of it in an Artist Trading Card. Sadly, some of the poem is true. I love to work I really do I love to hunt for new jobs, too I love to sweat, I love ...

Facing Truth I like to brag that I’m the one who held him up, kept the marriage going, the roof over our heads, stood by him through his addiction, the DUIs, the embarrassment he was at family gatherings. He was lowered into the ground in ...

So someone on a dating site made a joke about not wanting to be told she was pretty unless it was in the form of a sonnet. She wants a sonnet about her beauty When it’s plain for all to see already Is this Vanity or Redundancy? Who’s to say? ...

Gene pool The strain of alcoholism and depression Runs from my father’s father’s mother A taut anchor’s line From the black, blind, patient mud That waits to suck me down Or stir up like squid ink, darkening the waters The ever-present mire

Poets Boy I sure hate poets, Don’t never wanna be one. They got beady little squinty eyes, So shoot ‘em, if you see one. Poets, they talk all the time, Don’t never wanna listen; They don’t even try to rhyme— I think their brains is ...

Forget I was your wife, Forget you saved my life, Forget the babies lost, We must have been star crossed. I've watched myself erased, I know I've been replaced, Soon, you will insist, That I did not exist.

"Malpractice" He doesn't look me in the eyes But once or twice with steely glare I try to tell him how I feel He cuts me off. He doesn't care. He doesn't ask me where it hurts Just pokes and prods with slight disdain He says it's my fault that I...

Shame Man Rattle my bones into shame, tell me where I am bad. Humiliate identity, give me a name: Scheherazade. Tight black clothing stretched to fit, constricting so I cannot sit. Written hard onto my skin, a list: debauchery and sin- for which ...
