women and men

Don’t fool yourself

you’re nobodies fool

you couldn’t fool me

I couldn’t fool you

around and around

this fool proof plan

was never intended

for women and men.

The business men in business suits!

Business men

in business suits

pass on by

their busy route

They criss and cross

jump high and juke

other business men

in business suits

With cups of Joe

briefcase they carry

and hurry not

to miss the ferry

Across the harbor

to and fro

the business men

must surely go

To wheel and deal

contracts that steal

business men

of all their zeal

So if and when

you pass a suit

try not to block

their busy route

They’ll huff and puff

and grunt and scowl

walking fast

through you like fowl

For if they stop

they’d surely die

in business suits

and business tie

So watch yourself

next time you walk

and mark my words

in business talk

Do let them pass

or make them late

your time shall come

to seal their fate

Choose what you will

whichever suits

the business men

in business suits!

gods walk among us

the living
make the dead
immortal

gods
are born
this way

where in
life, they
were men

in death
their spirit, like
shadow puppets

used
by many hands
to spread the word,

grave men and grave women
only hear in death
because they can’t

listen in life
unable to fathom, that
gods walk among us

all the time.

fears of men

The fears of men

are as trivial as

children, picking children in gym,

they never change

they just get bigger.

Broken Men, Broken Women

Good men

Are broken

By broken women

Born of broken mothers

By broken fathers

Who’ve broken

Good women

The difference between women, men, and scars.

Scars heal.
Women don’t.
Women remember everything.
Every failed step.
Every spoken word, every mistake.

But women forget sometimes,
that men too
are unlike scars.

Men don’t heal either.
Men remember everything.
Every time, every opportunity.
And every failed step.

Then there are scars.
The untimely breakup,
which neither swears
they ever saw coming.

Ourselves as liars.

Imagine

there are two sides to every story,

sometimes three, four,

most times there are twelve.

It depends,

on who we are, who we’ve been

and who we’re trying to be,

like auditioning for a role.

And it’s easy to say,

that you never tell a lie,

or that I’m always wrong.

If I were to believe that,

if you, are so able to believe that

then, clearly

somebodies a liar.

Children.

With

a little bit

of boob

and

a little bit

of butt

girls become women

and

boys become men

until

children

make them

children again.
