Juan Olivarez Poems

I'll take a sausage biscuit and coffee please.
Such memories at this drive through,
I don't know that my brain,
Can deal with so much change.
...

Dive bomb that cat, sweet Mockingbird,
You have him on the run.
Silently without a word,
You make it look like so much fun.
...

Leather wings flapping
And the crickets chirp,
As another day slowly dies
Doves coo their squeekers to sleep.
...

Red rubber balls,
Green, yellow, and blue.
Purple and orange,
And some checkered ones too.
...

A lonely heart behind a pane,
Of foggy glass.
Watching the world go by
Caring nothing,
...

Be happy and smile,
Sadness has gone out of style.
Show those teeth for a while.
...

Everything has turned to green again,
Spring at last is here.
The fluffy clouds bring the spring rain,
The sky cries it's gentle tears.
...

No more
Caring for someone that doesn't
No more
Sleepless nights
...

There's a madman in Korea,
An idiot's running Iran.
They run their mouths like diarrhea,
Their brains must be in the can.
...

Sometime in the early morn,
Yesterday became today.
I don't know why, lost and forlorn,
Yesterday went away.
...
