Cradle
her in my arms
A
beautiful woman with the sun in her eyes
Connected
to the synergy in everything
I
create to breathe and breathe to create
Walking
and chewing gum go hand in hand once you let go of the throttle
I’ll
never forget when my brother tried teaching me how to ride a dirt bike. I was
nowhere near coordinated enough, but it was nice to spend some quality time
with him before he stopped speaking to the entire family, going on nearly
twenty five years now
Some
people break beneath the pressure while others become a diamond, able to cut
glass and leap tall buildings in a single bound
Teachers
are the real super heroes, not the athletes and celebrities
I
want to believe we’re better than all this mishegas, but after four years of
dumbass and the constant death knell of the Republicans toward any even
remotely charitable act I’m starting to think we’re getting exactly what we
deserve
America
the vain and superficial, getting cut down in her prime and just like James Dean
neither one is leaving a good-looking corpse
It’s
perverse what we prioritize in our country as a person’s deplorable acts of
selfishness expose all of us to a plague of biblical proportions
The
writing has been on the walls for decades as America gets dementia and forgets
how to read the signs of her own downfall
