I am greatful
I wonder if the next day will be as good as the last
I hear the wind whispering in my ear, "You should be happy with what you have."
I want everyone to have roof over their head
I am greatful
I pretend the world has no flaws
I feel the need for each homeless child

So Often I have heard,
The silence of a bird.
So often I have seen,
The smile of a boy.
So often I have tasted,
The salt of a tear.
So often I have smelt,
The sweetness of a maple.
So often I have felt,
The pang of death.
For I have only not-so-often,
Shed true tears....
Can you be a fool for love,
Just to have it torn from your very arms.
Can you be a fool for having hope,
Only to find that it utterly fails.
Can you you be a fool for thinking there is cure,
To find that there never was or can be.
Can you be a fool for not having love, hope, or thought....
I lost it.
It's gone forever.
I'll never see it again.
It had my best stories,
It had my best writing.
I still have to revise it!
They were written in an hour.
I put it somewhere,
I don't remember were.
I can't find it!!!
I've checked every nook and cranny,

Why I can't find it is unknown
Why I am here can only be shown
When I find it I'll cherish it forever
When I am here sadness will be never
Where I've hidden it, I've hidden it well
Where I am, will always be swell
What I've done with it I can't be sure
What I...
Oh, odes
You confuse us so dearly
You have more depth than the human mind
Words cannot define you.
You are colorless,
Shapeless,
A tragedy inside a tragedy,
And unexplainable.
The defiant you makes it hard for us to write more.
We sit for hours,
To make you happier,
More pleasant,
Your l...
Oh, Bacon!
We love you,
Your cholesterol high fatty goodness,
Your raw shades of pink,
The different browns when cooked,
Your variety of flavors,
And anything else under the sun about you.
Just as long as you come from a pig.
Oh, Bacon!
We can never fully say goodbye.
You call us to the ...
‘Tis the little things to make a man glad,
Such as family to be found with me.
Alliance is not to make a man sad,
But together they will end happily.
Fall, Winter, Summer, Spring are things to bring
For the seasons make us grow healthier
If these are happy things than joyfully sing
We alw...
It has been heard as “The Killer”,
“The Murderer”,
“The Devil”,
“The Big C”
And so forth.
But I have never heard of it as anything else.

The pain,
The shock,
The thought of Death’s angel.

A lump,
A bruise,
Whatever you call it.
It’s al...
