Poetry Marathon Hour Twelve
To Do List
Get out of bed
brush that head
drink some coffee
throw out the doubts and why mes
prepare for the day
don’t forget that you slay
Eat something more than once
best if you eat dinner, breakfast and lunch
keep away any and all doubts
throw those nasty things right out
don’t forget to hydrate
you have too much on your plate
portion it out a piece at a time
until you can handle the whole design
Poetry Marathon Hour Eleven
From A Differing Perspective
The argument that seemed so dire
to you was to me nothing
more than Tuesday,
I tried to explain my view
only for you to turn the other way.
My words meant nothing,
you didn’t want to hear…
it was all about you…
much as it always was.
My tears fell unwarranted
to find that you did not care,
so my urge to argue was
unimpeded by the need to
head your feelings instead.
Poetry Marathon Hour Ten
Redaction
The choice to censor myself
Is not one that I want to make,
Redaction is not for the likes
Of poets like me.
I perfer to spill my verse
More honestly…
Without the markers
Cross to hide the dream
I want to speak.
Poetry Marathon Hour Nine
Publishing
Maybe making books
Is fantasy,
All inside my head.
Putting together pretty
Words until the ink is red.
Maybe making books
Requires a bit of whimsy
To see the dreams
Contained within.
Poetry Marathon Hour Eight
I had nothing to say about the prompt for this hour… so I wrote what I wanted to…
Am I the Mistake
I understand now
That you were right,
I was your mistake.
That doesn’t mean
It was in any way
On my shoulders,
For I was a child
Whose only responsibility
Was growing up.
You made the mistake
In having children
You could not love
Unconditionally.
Poetry Marathon Hour Seven
What is Love
So much that the poets
Have debated,
Ancient song lyrics
All have joined in to ask,
Not a answer amongst them…
Just another question to ask.
What is love
More than a debate
On human nature,
Emotions, and understanding
Time for grace.
