I Wander

What can you hope to get donewhen you spend your day running around trying to catch your thoughts?
Never on one subject always wandering round’My apologies to Dion
They’re not where they’re supposed to beThey’re off somewhere projectingworrying about things which I cannot control
But the things I can affectThe things within my powerOn these they refuse to [...]

Moving Day

We went through the albums and CD’sMost of the books were yoursYou got the furniture and the antiquesI gave you the TV and stereoI took the few dishes I’d hadEverything that belonged to us once again belonged to you and me

Insert Your Own Wish Here

Dear Santa,
I wish that I could…
and not be afraid to…
and wouldn’t worry about…
bring me a new…the old one is broken.
Thank you.

My Bodyguard

I became a man to keep the boy inside me safe.

Words I Lived By

Trust no one.Expect nothing.Never get your hopes up.
I need a new motto.

If I Wrote Fortune Cookies

Those who learn from the past are destined to judge the present by it.

Constipated

Have you ever been constipated?
Really constipated.
Nothing works.
You’re cramped, bloated and all you want is relief.
That’s how it is when I can’t write.
I get all these thoughts backed up in my head.
It hurts.
I get grumpy.
I try music, reading.
Anything to unblock me.
A mental laxative.
I’d be happy to put anything on paper.
Even if it’s crap.

Just Random

I need all my thoughts to please line up single file.I want to examine each of you one at a time.
There are too many of youand in no particular order.

Obedience Training

My head is throbbing.I can feel my heart beating in my temples.That would be my thoughts slugging it out.
One says jump.The other says stay.I just want to roll over and play dead.
I’m like a dog with two mastersnot knowing which one to obey.

If This Is Wrong I Don’t Want To Be Right

You know it was good when you look at each other afterwards and say:
“We’re going to hell you know that.”
“I know.”
