Getting put off
Again and again, treated
Like a spoiled, needy child
Or a whiny idiot to avoid
Revealing their own lack of
Education and work ethic

Frustrations
The Disconnect Reconnect
A single voice
Inside my mind –
No leaping images,
Vying for time –
Fecund thoughts
In silence, sublime
And eyes more enlightened
Than blind.
Resolutions
Designed with care and
Erected to last:
Strong steel and a
Concrete core.
Impenetrable,
Impermeable –
Unyielding.
An overnight change,
An instant corrosion:
Gossamer glass and a
Fractured foundation.
Fragile,
Flimsy –
Shattered.
Scattered dust
Litters the ground,
Joining the rest:
Fertile ground
For building
The Cost of Kindness
Spending just a moment
To think beyond yourself
Reaching past pride to
Grasp generosity
Forcing through anger to
Seek selflessness
Rejecting judgement to
Forgive
Releasing the past
To live
Ask a Foolish Question
Ask a foolish question
Cue mockery and scorn
Ask a foolish question
And wish that you weren’t born
Ask a foolish question
Hear the silence grow
Feel the sneering glances
And stop wanting to know
Ask a foolish question
Open yourself to pain
Ask a foolish question
Swear not to ask again
Ask a foolish question
Risk the fated burn
Ask a foolish question
If you truly want to learn
