Michael Fischer Poems

I clinch my quicksand hope,
but it starts to slip,
through my broken fingers,
till the hourglass flips!
...

You want what's best;
What's best for you.
But it's my fault;
I bought your lies!
...

Life is but a death sentence!

If your word string runs on,
you can be sure the teacher
...

You left me breathless babe;
My brain cells are dying!
The only thought I have
is me and you as one!
...

I.

O what did I do to deserve this fate,
this bloody awful fate? Blasted,
...

I played in their mind games;
Until it became my job!
I was one bloodless mistake
away from a second chance.
...

Scribbled moments float
on the wave pool paper
and describe times
of inspiration and discovery.
...

Welcome my good friend;
Stay as long as you’d like.
I’ll be your tour guide;
My door’s open all night.
...

My muscle memory fades
With the onslaught of time

That is...
...

My center stage laugh from childhood
Tickles the insides of my cheeks
As the frost wind smoke quickly clears
And the desk lamp shines upon me
...
