James Meaney Poems

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
...

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
...

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

--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
...

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
...

Remember the Friday
we skipped school
you wanted to stay
but i persuaded you
...
