Barefoot on Grass
Once in a while, Take off those sneakers, Take off those socks, To step barefoot on the grass. Allow it to touch your soles. Allow its tips To gently tingle them, To quietly relax them. Once in a while, Break down the barriers Between nature and you, To step out of your bubble. Allow yourself [...]
More Than Anger
The arguments are unavoidable Every time you don't listen. But more important than my anger Is what we have. The irritation is inescapable Every time I speak the same thing.

Last Chance
What would you do If someone told you This was your last chance? Would you still not think, Rushing into things Or would you stop over-thinking? Would you give it your all Or would you be careful Not to mess up your last record? Would you be the same Or make every effort To not [...]
It’s Raining Shit
You toil and toil, Hoping it will make a difference. But when you look around, You see nothing but shit. Shit so deep That it reaches to your knees. Shit so stinky That it makes you want to puke. It only keeps piling up. It only keeps bogging you down. It only makes you feel [...]
