PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

must you always remember so to make me further myself

forget

must you need and lose everything all for the sake of one senseless bet

you always say but still I have to ask

even though when I do you quickly bring me around to task

"Is This Really As Good As Its Bound To Get?'

true fathers of foolishness do not let themselves fret

time seems to sometimes stop to take hold of your unfortunate hand

or it can turn and buckle the knees making it even more difficult for you to stand

your kind of uninterrupted vision stands when its able

so often alert and alone

making points once impossible possible and things generally unknown known

the past, present and future brush together and

seductively wait for your next creative call

what do you for many in the eyes of the opposing others

makes my gesture of giving something back seem so

pitiful and small

pardon me now while I put up just one more

knock-down-able writer's wall

but for a short time only will my verbal bad knees

allow me the dismal grace to crawl.........
