'Truth is Love'
such words were said
as the poet painted
the town
...
To the heavens they would rise
my yarns, excuses, alibis.
Such tall tales I could tell
and all constructed very well
...
the wind whispers
a wary warning
There was plenty, still
early this morning
...
in a dress
I suddenly find
a sea of laughing faces
...
a loud crash
shocks me from sleep
that damn cat
knocked my stuff in a heap
...
a fitting pun -
I was misled
the seamstress
was only
...
the medical examiner knew
she wasn't up-to-dating
but this was the woman who
he'd spent his life a-waiting
...
Love flew in my window
I thought 'whatever for? ! '
in the past it just brought woe
so I showed it to the door
...
