All of Us As Us For Us

Nom noms and tom toms Are really what make me move There’s a gravy train straight to… When you skip your needle to that…

My baby’s got Curly red hair Shimmering eyes Freckles to spare Likes to play games

Don’t think that we Should berate I feel we must Coruscate Not focus on

Ain’t no mountain high Ain’t no valley nigh When you’re in my sights

Mostly I want To be myself Something special To someone else

Ever been great at Balance? Then you understand Why I tip my scales.

I’m in the darkness You can’t intervene It’s just what I need For light to shine clean

I am homeless Not because I live in my car But, because my home is in the arm… And I forget what that feels like

Most poems perused Would probably be better Made into haikus

I’ve lived my life And seen some things Heard bitchin’ tunes Tasted my dreams But if you want

I feel you You feel me Our love happens eventually With an up down Turn us round

Face down in gutter again Seems to be my closest friend Where I land time and again Nothing new except the end

There’s one thing I’ve never had in my life And I feel I’d regret Not tasting the spice It’s lean, it’s mean

I wish that you could see myself The way that I see me Then maybe I might be the one That you would call lovely
