(2014)
Traffic Irritation becomes a nightmare As the lines start to squiggle Bending in and out And the world starts its attack
My sister’s cookies Chocolate chip Got my nephew to Say her name For the first time
The ugliest shade Of green We envy The car The job
I spend all my time Fighting with you In my head If we fought At least it would be
Stubbed toe Red light Ugly words Ugly mouth To shock
When I think of my mom I think of malt o meal muffins When I think of my dad Memories of a child Chasing us around the circle
Rough day Rough night If I could live In my bath Water would never
¿Te fue mal el día? Me va mal también a mi Dos vidas entretejidas Irrevocablemente Te cargo a ti encima
How do I Catch your interest? Once again I know You are bored with me
Husband and wife Companions for life Mature love that deepens And mellows with time Life’s eroding winds
The medication is not me But neither is the sickness it tre… You may hear its effects In my voice In my opinions
What if one day I wasn’t there for you? And you were left needing me If I wasn’t there When you woke up
I struggle to Keep it together Maxims and mottoes On repeat In my mind
My pump Constant companion Of my disease My sensor Resembles a feeding
I love to hear poetry read Rather than performed I love to hear each word Appreciated Rather than memorized
