Primal


Primal
felt insecure
Cause you said maybe I couldn't hear over me
I guess that might have been a turn-off?
Then, you had your moment
and I did not know
So, I was foolishly continuing with language
the talk
fool, fool, fool

I am sad cause
I wanna hear you
wanna feel you
in your moment

The primal in me
wanting to watch you
hear you

How to go from thinking
of you
touching me
my leg, wait, thigh
to touching my
body
and
thinking of
you
against
me

You see
even the thought of
being near
you
can give me a
moment

Not even the actual act has
occurred
in my mind
I am still on
feeling you
smelling you
being near you
I am

handle life

Wha? Wha?
Break the cycle
Wha? Wha?
Break the cycle
Break the cycle


should it be a chant? When we feel we have done exacty as planned, is it enough? when you find out that the cycle you are breaking is one that you felt everyone must have gone through. Ha! Alas, no. bitterness. How can you survive on raw bones and blood. Break the cycle.

Mother do you think they'll drop the bomb




Thirteen Reasons Why by Jay Asher


This young adult book focuses on Hannah and Clay. It also dives into teen suicide and is hard to put down. Hannah has committed suicide. Clay received a box of tapes in the mail. 13 sides for thirteen reasons why. Each side is for a person, including Clay. He wonders how he could be part of the tapes. He had a crush on Hannah, but never got close. It's told in dual narratives that are heartbreaking, confusing, and mind-numbing. Follow Clay one night as he listens to 13 reasons while roaming the streets of his home town. Insightful and definitely not just for teen readers.

His Jihad airing nightly

Seems to me that one may care.
However, it's not to be.
Tiller the baby killer has been shot!
The hate speech, aired 28 times.
Mass murderer, blood on his hands.
Red face, confident sneer.
Provoking hate and acts of violence.
Who me? He looks surprised.

Remembrance

Father
Grandfather
Doctor
Confidant
Husband
Humble warrior of woman's rights.

What shall we remember of this day?
All the ones who laughed at the thought?
Our ideology of life does not include murder.
Yet
Four since 1993
Terrorized by a jihad
That promises death and destruction
Of their enemies.

One man
Who upheld a legal procedure
helping women
giving privacy
Choice
Afraid for his patients
If anything happened to him.

One man
Who loved his wife
Made his children laugh
Watched his grandchildren with awe
Wonder
Life
