Chuy Amante Poems

You have been loved, but WORSHIPED I'm doubtful,
Kindness extended, and nice words just a mouthful?

Many have felt love, in the head or in their pants,
...

UP out of the slime of human existence
I live like a DOG without resistance

I see, hear, smell and sense what is NOW
...

The love of a poet always bursting forth
frosting the earth for all it's worth

A poet full of hate,
...

Happiness is not hiding
but rarely is found
Happiness is abiding
only in the NOW
...

I watched as you turned 40
now mature and lightly thicker

From the rear of your car
...

Dear Brother Michael
how do you do it?

your love brews a warm storm
...

When did the romantic notes stop?

Did he buy your love
and then throw you on the top-
...

I got to thinking about all those people
who do crazy things! ! ! You know,
the ones that make the
news and the magazines
...

Whoever wakes first,
fake like you still sleep

So the other can get up
...

We chase love, all of our lives,
in case you are wondering, that is ALL of our lives.........

Do we do what it takes to earn it?
...
