I am a spent bomb,
Shell of a woman.
The fragmentation
Of somebody's dream
The remnants of a nightmare
She never knew she had.
I am without self
A mass of tissue
Mutated to human form
Without . . .

I sat with my cigarette
In the stillness of the night
Watching wisps of smoke
Rise and fade to nothingness.
I thought about the past
And I dreamed of days to come.
Then I felt . . .

My flower bowl lies shattered.
Tiny pieces of delicate blue
Are scattered across the floor
And the painted yellow rose
No longer has a stem.
I wanted to fill my bowl with violets, . . .

They tell me I think too much
But all I think about is you,
And this,
And that,
And life,
and death,
And just--- things
and you
once again,
burning like lightning
Across my . . .

At the end of my life, I live,
And dream my way back
Through a thousand acres of time
To when I sat small and unalone,
Listening to the whispers
Of unloved maple leaves.
At the end of my life, . . .

In the park
a chubby pink child
rests on a bench
in her mother's arms,
eating long strands of blond hair
in affectionate clumps,
and staring at embracing lovers
who smile back.

He was but a whisper.
Not knowing that human tears
Could drown the beauty of a quiet face,
he walked cold and ghostlike,
Among other men a statue

Since bread is square, why is sandwich meat round?
Can you cry under water?
Why are you IN a movie, but you are ON TV
How come we choose from just two people for President and fifty for . . .

They say that tomorrow is as yet unwritten,
yet each day for me is a repetition of yesterday,
and predicting my own future is as simple
As recollecting my sordid past.
Unfulfilled dreams and broken . . .

I waited for you with bated breath
In hopes that once again,
We could share that oneness
we knew when we were friends.
But has time and distance erased
The closeness we once knew?
Because . . .

Would you mind if I borrowed your dream?
Somebody stepped on mine
And the broken pieces crumble
and scatter more with the passage of time.
And could I maybe stand in your shoes
And try to feel taller . . .

Alone in the darkness, I stand at my window and gaze down on my deserted block, barely lit by a single street lamp. Suddenly, I see him, The old man sitting lonely On the September cold, concrete steps . . .

At the foot of a tree Brown wisps of memory Clutter the ground and choke the grass But the tree . . .

Leaning on the cracked, discolored concrete wall,
I stare down into the sluggish green creek.
My eyes focus on faded beer cans,broken bottles,
And semi-shredded pampers.
My thoughts slide inevitably . . .

If Barbie is so popular, why do you have to buy her friends?
What do they pack Styrofoam in?
Why do fat chance and slim chance mean the same thing?
If you can't drink and . . .

It hurts to love somebody
When you know that they don't care.
There are times when you feel like crying,
But you know it will lead nowhere.
Sometimes I fall into your eyes
And in my head . . .

You are the ray of light in my dusty sky. Some days your're the only reason I don't cry. At other times you'd best believe, You're the reason I remember to breathe. Spending time with you gives me hope. . . .
