James Irwin Poems

Did you ever hear of the tale,
about the Man...who kept in a small pond...a rather huge Whale.

(in my opinion, he should have gone to jail)

In this pond...the Whale would miserably sit,
...

On this winters night... I have a story for you,
it`s a tale about a man... who`s happiness, he never knew.

He lived a life all be it alone,
...

I do not want to be involved, at your grand table of feast`s,
for I will not drink blood... with such shallow of beautifully dressed Beasts.

I want no place where this meal be served,
...

Where did all my butterflies go,
lost with summer dreams...and a smile, that I used to know.
Gone with any second glance that is given,
lost to the way of a dance...that has forever been driven.
...

If...for some reason, we ever have to part,
I want you to know...that within minutes, to you my journey will start.

Because, I am your biggest fan,
...

On the evening, of past Christmas Eve,
a family got a shock...when Santa Clause, wouldn't leave.

Drunk and abusive... he told them all,
...

It hides from me,
where ever I may be.

Love has no face.
...

The girl I love has gone away,
on my knees...I begged her to stay.

She was my love, the only one that was true,
...

Over a Beer a Psychologist once told me...that there are only a few that he never understood,
and the worst out of the whole lot,
was that Little Miss Red Riding Hood.
...

The cumbersome fool,
who staggers and all,
all the way of a stagger.
...
