I love you despite everyone nose!
I love you despite everyone nose!
despite the traffic jam
despite the audience blame
and the chatter of my toes
I love you and I mean what I say
a confession of love does not
accept any delay
this type of the immortal love
can not be temporary or tough
I love you despite the spread of
boredom in the world
despite all my long night I was
totally bent
I love you despite the breaking
news and stammering of all correspondents
I love you despite my classic
shoes and the currency of the tents
despite the urgent calls every
midnight
I love you
despite the loneliness of shores
after escaping the light
i love you
despite the world difficult rules
despite the absence of "because"
I love you despite everyone nose!

Loneliness
As a boy, I’d climb trees,
reach into nests birds would leave unattended.
I’d fill my hand with small eggs, and often
one or two hatchlings would stare at me
from behind the sprigs.
There were times I wanted
to take them home, keep them as my own,
raise them, imagined their beaks
would one day open to call me, “Father.”

I Think Its Only Fair
When I was a kid
I couldn't wait to be
Old enough to go driving
And, or to be married
But look at me now
as fat as a cow
I wrecked my auto three times
and occasionally my shoes I cannot find.
Ponderus -- John Weakland
