James Meaney Poems

If spring lasted forever
I'd never have to say goodbye
to when summer ended
or when the fall leaves died
...

I met this girl as a junior,
she shot me down like an archer
& sailed through my heart and laid anchor
walked upon my dusty shores
...

Censorship disallowing people to run
Keeping them grouped and all in a tether
Darkness will fall and silence to come
Not before A harmony to bring ill weather
...

This girl never sleeps
making her miserable
thinking shes unaware of things
And I cant help her
...

--Needs More work on Rhythmic flow

He never wears his shoes
and he never wears his shirt,
...

I wonder why being my-self is so unsettling
I see little that benefits my nature
I want to be Detached from the personality's of common society
I am both broken and Capable
...

Lay down - this cold ground
Contemplative mind, look up;
So far to climb
Getting to were I fit in
...

This wishing tree
Grows in my yard
I tell it my secrets
I tell it my heart
...

All I know is that your so right
Your the rightest thing for me
I wish that you'd let me in
You know we could be something
...

New York bound
Here too throw it down
An instinctive lyricist
Like grown from the ground
...
