(not poetry, just some expression)
i'm walking home. i hear a cough.
is that him?
i'm grateful i left the porch light on
i look around the yard, shadows dancing,
peer around the corner to the next yard
no one in sight
i open the door quickly. double lock set.
lie down in my bed, alone
the bed i moved to the other side of the room
i'm glad i moved the bed over here i think
as i roll onto my good shoulder (the one he didn't break)
because now i don't have to sleep
with my back to the door

some words of wisdom on detachment, from my 10 year old friend...she wrote this when we were living together at the beach for a summer
Life in Two Bits
You have a few bits in life,
two today and the same ahead:
earthly thoughts and heavenly thoughts.
It comes to me the nicest earthly thought is Love
to be there, to have such an earthly thing i know,
it is the nicest of earth
yes i do have a lot of earthly love for my mum friends sisters brother and dad
it's alright
but heavenly thoughts have all ways to be better and gooder
but some earthly thoughts are dark like hate or kill
why? why are humans so blind and low to even think such a thing?
it's nice to have some one to think about but if you are in the heavenly place
you're too sick of humanity to even think of them
