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

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 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.

Monday Poetry

It’s that time again.

As Of today… I am 15 poems from completion of Muse’s Masterpiece. I have my doubts that it will take me the rest of the week to finish writing it. I may be wrong. I have several “Themed” volumes in progress but I want a non theme volume for writing as usual. The six covers above are all non themed. Help me pick the next one?
