Morning of the eve

It was early morning
The eve of christmas
Three people sitting
Not a Spoken work talking
One Reading the paper
The other doing the cross word
The third nose deep in a comic
An alarm sounds
All sit up and take notice
Nothing serious
Back to the three things again
The paper
The cross word
And a comic

A Fake Tree

I walked out side
stepping on the back of my shoes
it was in the bed of josie for almost a week
yes i am a city boy
yes im going to throw you out as soon as this is done
make a stand....

everytime i think of this
everytime i make it seasonal
i get mad
and put my self in a bad mood
all i want is to be left alone
all alone
and what i get
is never what i ask
nice thoughts comming from others
but they dont have to live
with 6 arms
2 short from normal

Only

I would run my fingers though your hear
standing close to you
toe to toe
looking deeply in to your eyes
your arms around my waist
pull close and burry my face inbetween
your neck and sholder
breath out slowly
let my worm breath warm you
next breath would start a pur
i would run my nose
slighly touching your skin
up your neck
around the bottom of your ear
lighly purring
and back down again
i can hear a slight smile
and you relax a little
everything is ok now
and everything is fine

that is what i would do

Few Things These Days

No im not staring at you
yes you are very attractive
but im not staring at you
what you brought with you
im more intested in

he walked over to the cooler
picked out what he wanted
reached out as hard as he could
bearly holding the handle
with all his weight
it would not open
but he never gave up

sir... sir....
can i help you

ohh... yes hold on
and when i turned
you where gone
and i had to order

few things in life make me smile
one thing
that never fails
that will always make me turn and smile
is one little one trying as hard as they can
or just happy

simple
but happy
what else could you want in your life
what else could i want
so far from reach
but flight will make due

no on ever said life would be easy
but who said it would be this hard

St Nick... Keep Flyen

Lets Recap

Last december
the 22
working durring the sun
lets recap

wake up
roll over
nose plugged like a stuck drain
back thrown out
head pounding
walk down a flight of stairs
look in the merrior
white as a ghost
november knows to stay away
swetting in my boxers
i get ready to work
check the temp for the hell of it
23 degrees out side
me im 102
i go to work

phil "you ok"
squid "blank stare"
Bill "you look like shit, whats wrong?"
squid "you want the truth or to feel ok inside"
Bill "truth sounds more interesting"
Squid "My back is thrown out, it hurts to sit and stand, i have a fever of of 102, i cant breath, my head is pounding and i feel like i got hit by my truck just diving in to work."

phil "most people call in sick at this point"
squid "i can still think, i can still move, i can still run, im going to work."
phil "allright, whats the square rout of 9.5?"
Bill "what??"
squid "around pie"
Bill "what??"
phil "he's right... ok then lets leave you alone"
Bill "what???"
Squid "im going to take a nap in this chair for 15"

So i ask you
when you roll out of the sheets
and your nose is dripping brain fluid
you body akes
you can move but it hurts just to think of it
you can get out of bed
but you dont
you call in and make some one else do your work
is it fair
or are you crying wolf
and going to take it easy

i didnt stop for pnemonia
double eat infections
and fluid in my lungs
i still marched in a kilt
cuz they needed a bass drummer

thats dedication

Black Wings of White

Hours scratching a piece of paper
making sure it was looking to par
your wings are cliped
but one side streached out far
now it is gone
but the plan is to spread them again
reach out feet appon feet
to show to fly is not that hard
but to land is not that easy

who is the creation for
for me
for the dad
for the son

or is it
a thank you that everyone
can enjoy

right now im more worried about
affording it

so right now
your wings are cliped
your call is silenced
but one person critisied you
critisied a rough draft
an idea
a thank you

what a true man he is....

True People

I stack you on the shelf
one by one
standing next to each other
i treat you better than most
love you even
keep you safe
when others come over and take a look
all they see is childness
what they dont do is
take you down
open you up
and take a glance at what you say
what they are missing is a true message
they are afraid of what they might find out
what they might question when they see
that everything is differnt that what the believe
so stand you up
next to your brothers
and sisters
and once and a great while
i will introduce another friend
just to make sure my mind is open

noon to 1930 nap

what you dont sleep past noon
what are you nuts
i sleep for ever if i could
it passes the time
you are warm and in bed
relxed
cool calm and colective
where i want to be
just lay
and dream
and lay
and think
and lay and snuggle up
and lay and be warm
just lay with the cat at my feet
or at my side with one paw in me
maken sure i dont roll over on him
sleep all day
up all night
sleep when i need to get up
mornings are not fun
afternoons suck
so why not sleep them away!!!
damn staright
