Another word to an unborn son

Some day
out of nowhere
your mood
will shift
from one hundred percent
to zero,

and you will feel sad

and you will feel weak

and you will feel vulnerable,

and that’s good
that’s natural
that’s life,
so get used to it,
it’s a beautiful thing
even when it hurts most.

Food for thought

The food.

The food.

Everybody’s so worried about the food.

It has to be hot.
It has to be ready.

Is there enough?

If only he opened his heart as much as his mouth,

she might have stayed.

The Hardest Part

I
miss
everything
and
nothing
about
you

and
most
times
that’s
the
hardest
part.

Happiness & Love

Happiness
& Love
killed
the poem.
As
for
the poet,
he lived
mourned his loss
then learned to love again.

People having the best day

Be cautious
of those people
having the best day,

they’re usually
hiding something
insidious.

The Wool

Some times
a man
must
pull the wool
over his own eyes,

just to make it through the day.

Try

Most days
all we can do
is try,
try without motive
without reason
but with trust
in ourselves
that tomorrow
is another day
to try.

The letter he sent me from somewhere

Don’t be ashamed.

We’re all going somewhere,

even if that somewhere feels like nowhere,

it’s still somewhere.

And you know what?

You won’t be the only one there.

Honest.

I’ll be seeing you.

Commute

Purple sky.
Blinking lights and a deep sigh.
Cars pass by.

The Photographer with a Degree

We
are
a
dime
a
dozen.
And
nobodies
asking
for
a
dozen
of
dimes.
