Covered in a big green dress

It is filled with life

It gives food and shelter to all that dares to go

People and creatures live there

Boring

What does it mean?

Nothing to do?

sitting alone?

Just there while everyone plays?

Yes

No

Maybe

Some grown-ups say

Ok if you are bored then come and help me

Then you probably say

No that is ok

I am going to play ---

But you are still bored

Bored like a horse just sitting in the stable nothing to do bored

Summer is a time of

Around it goes

Sadness is a feeling deep in everyone

It waits for you to be vulnerable…

Then it STRIKES!

You can’t get rid of it

It comes to stay

For when you feel it wants to strike

You run away

Only for it to find you again

A headache like hitting a wall

"I can't breathe"
Was what he said,
pinned to the ground
He laid then limp
Life in him
Taken, nowhere
to be found.
Now protests and marches
And burning of buildings
in his memory we
fight
we argue
we won't stand by.
This is not a first
this is not new.
400 years is what led to here.
We are disappointed
But will not take no action.
George Floyd,
We will Not
Let this happen.

I’m only alone when we’re together

I’m only alone if you’re with me

I only need to be with you

I only need you to want to be with me

Not always will you stay,

But when you do,

I feel safe when I’m alone,

But feel not alone at all

I’m only alone when you lay softly

On my lap my small lovely ball of fluff,

My alone partner, Kitty cat.

Lies
leave a certain
feeling
in our gut
when we lie
our hearts
beat fast
then slow
after we lie
even a minute seems like an eternity
silently hoping that the eternity
turns back into that small minute
over what feels like days
you still have that feeling
of a rotten apple
slowly churning
those uncontrollable lies
pouring down your throat
of old unforgiving lies
now deep inside your stomach
even though after
you told the truth...

tower in front of me

like endless chinks in an old wall.

Dress, brush my hair pat

Long day full of things

I don’t always understand, but others I do.

when you first start it, ain't really fun you got to practice

It makes you mad, but if you want to get really good

you have to practice every day.

If you have practice and you come home
And if you don't have a basketball hoop

Then practice on your dribbling. All you gotta do is practice and you got to believe.
