My Son’s Car Payment Is Less (Bussokusekika)

My Son’s Car Payment Is Less (Bussokusekika)

There should be a Law
For insurance companies
Charging customers
More than what their car is worth
My son’s car payment is less
Than his insurance payment

Here's To Tomorrow

If I am with you here tomorrow
Let us count that as a blessing
Cause the weight that I carry on my shoulders
Is aggressive
Pent up emotions
Today is the day I think we address em
You shot me!
Then threw me a Band-Aid and said
Heal quick

Kleptomania.

Kleptomania.

He had a habit to steal,
at least one thing everyday,
when he went to school.

If it wasn't pen then pencil,
book or exercise book,
he stole from his friends
and satisfied his evil will.

He couldn't resist his temptation

Myth

Silence is a myth
A thing we are taught to seek
No matter where I be
I hear the vibrations in me
Until I no longer be
You see, Silence cannot...

Ode To J.D.

Drowning in my bitterness
and the smallness of reluctance
I refuse again to see
what life has gifted me unclaimed

 Falling back into the prison of my dark
unfolding memoir
Drifting lost into an older time
— negativity holds dear

The sea of green.

Green fields lie before me, stretching out as far as the eye can see. A farm stands in the distance, with cows peacefully grazing in the pasture. The beauty of the countryside fills my heart with joy and peace, bringing me serenity and solitude....

Irrational

An irrational ex.

Empty life,
no control,
witch-craft,
lost soul,
Tarot cards,
Lotto hope,
faith is gone,
how to cope,
drifting wind,
freedoms mate,
think not,
cry fate,
lucky charms,
numbers up,
logic out,
give me...

B/W O/G

When I was 15
I became obsessed with
the Yin and the Yang.

The truth and the lies.

The stars, the stars
What are you like?

Long lost girl

 Saturday morning were always so cold, the broken window let in the cold air
Bang the window shot open and the glass shattered all over the floor
The princess started to shiver as the cold wind hit her gentle soft skin
When the...
