I did not look for you

I did not look for you
When you called out my name
Life goes on old friend, it
Will never be the same

I am not a subset
Or a tangent to claim
Outerspace is not cold
If inside you, a flame

Trump wears a wife beater

Trump wears a wife beater
At the breakfast table
Calmly making statements
Both false and unstable

Forget past cruelty
It won't happen again
Until "again" happens
Not if or won't but when

We once chased the tail of

We once chased the tail of
A narcissistic hawk
Blackbird mobbers on a
Territorial stalk

We poked and pecked as we
Clearly set our border
Rejoiced Life and found a
Normal set of order

Two opposing magnets

Two opposing magnets
South to south, north to north
Seeing eye to eye, no
Yin and yang, back and forth

Pushing further apart
Breaking like shoelaces
Deemed useless, discarded
Falling from good graces

Why is depression blue

Why is depression blue
Skies without clarity
Before a wide ocean
Lone sense of rarity

A color not fruitful
Blueberries are not blue
And the color of cold
The death of me and you

Looking at the blue sky

Looking at the blue sky
Not finding clarity
Staring at an ocean
No sense of rarity

The looking at mankind
Ridiculous yet true
Passion, hope and promise
Generation debut

Just another marker

Just another marker
And nothing more than this
And yet a moment of
Togetherness, a kiss

Briefly looking back then
Ten seconds here and now
A threshold to future
We are, we can and how
