Barry Van Allen Poems

It is difficult to see the way to go at times,
and yet at other times the course is plainly marked,
... that which we are granted,
we too often take for granted.
...

Best left to each one's conscience,
Entertain it if you must,
The explanation's never clear,
To me it isn't either,
...

It doesn't come here in the Springtime,
'nor does it come here in the Fall,
love usually shows up,
when you expect it least of all.
...

I feel so superior,
I am smarter than Bill Gates,
because I know what a clock is!
...

I' ve just been reminded of when I was in my teens,
and why the neighbors didn't care for me,
I was revving up my engines - - -
... but, then again...
...

I hate that hatred killed her,
a disagreement and a vote,
... should have been enough.
...

Most women that I have known,
are still made of what little girls are made of;
sugar and spice and everything nice,
that is... MOST of them,
...

I don't believe in unicorns,
but, the horses are most beautiful,
compared to cows and pigs,
and most domestic livestock,
...

Candle melting down,
I feel it only right,
clouds were getting cloudier,
I had to leave tonight.
...

It's hard enough to hear the truth,
it is hard enough to tell the truth,
most folks just can't handle it,
... straight on!
...
