As I looked into my mirror  one day, I could see, that a sad little girl was looking at me. I said to this child where is your smile? Through tears she replied, "Can we talk for a while? Your mommy is dead. They took your daddy away. I don't know how you face your mirror everyday?" Besides the lump in my throat, I also felt, a tear trickled down as my heart begin to melt. Sweet Child you see, it is hard to explain, how people can hurt you and cause you such pain. but if you believe that God sent us Jesus his son, you can face everyday and you won't have to run. So smile little girl there is a whole new world of love and happiness and a brand new start, the moment you ask Jesus to come into your heart. Looking deeper yet, into my mirror I could see, that this sad little girl looked exactly like me.

Amateur poet, ultimate,
Heroic, stoic, slowest,
Everything rhymed about,
Hopeful of inchoate.
Chum of the lake, think,
Who is the wake for?
Dead men living pale,
or those living, 
Mouth agape, ailing,
Flailing their limbs,
Scene akimbo,
Fare unanswered,
Meter fake.

So they take what is mine,
Question pondered,
What is life plastered?
Humanity mastered,
Time honored,
or is it a last laugh,
before dying afterward?

Poets lie yet find alms,
Measured footsteps bald,
Words lifelessly clever,
Heart hard to hold palm;
Old arms to old arms,
Adages stolen loved upon;

Bard holy, arch golden,
To carve lonely,
Barns beholden,
Nothing nobel.
Par normally, like poultry,
To starve colts.

Ark art, Swan gone,
Dark garb, lark fawned,
Opposite of his mind,
He finds laughter,
Chapter after chatter,
Chancellor gone;
He defines pattern,
An afterthought.

No honor or Bravery,
Mulled over too long,
Followers betray,
Feelings astray amongst.
Lay waste upon their pores;
Their universe stainless,
Faces like rust;
No steel to steel,
No virtue of thievery,
To steal regardless;
Complacence unjust;

The coming winter should mark the death of my love, 

yet there is nothing to kill.

For her unspoken words burn deeper than sunlight,
light The Eclipse could not seal.

The torrent is relentless
Shakened, awake is the sea

A sacrifice asked of fate
For every victory

Yet I've lost

And so, you, I've won

only for the smallest of eternities

Me? I once found love,
It made no difference,
They all forget to sub,
And I made no income.
A marriage valueless,
The class clown flubs;

Bell rings and we run,
Fighters embracing,
They man up, Fast t'was.
Master of the gun facing
 Castles of his virtue,
Backs still to the sun;

Sacks filled with their cum,
Save slaves of ignorance,
To every man is worthless.
Except when smoke burlesque,
And living on canned shrubs.
Maybe it should be, unless,
You buy conqueror's seed,
Then smoke it bluntly,
with cannabis, sunglasses on;

Past tomorrow I see no lecterns.
The horse speaks, lack luster,
Words worthless,
 and everyone taking pictures;
Girls wet as many pitchers,
Barn doors close windowless;
Blissful peace again,
Silencing planes overhead,
Standing tall as clouds,
Power small as a child,
Foreign tongue, power bottom,
University educated,
Now you've got 'em.

Maybe whispered tomorrow,
Today lives in industry, 
Claws large as the gut,
Staged imagery for one;
Paper mimicry of a doll,
Feigned apathy of a sun;

Forgone lectures,
Postponed letters,
Now apropos,
Lessons to a horse.

Lesions and sores,
Plague of the bed,
Everyone to lye in.
Pleasure center torn,
Smash that like button,
Feel at home.

Sitting on the curb,
I see nothing,
Fondling opportunity,
So I say nothing.

The rainbow melancholy
Probably of nobody,
Probability muddied,
Elite in discussion.

Procession of remedy,
Salve of urine,
Bandage of gold,
Who heals a beast,
Of legend told?

Behold the pale horse,
Final legendary colt.
Leaving our houses unsold,
Every bed unmade,
Sheets still folded.

Only tragedy of the pen,
Everything self penned,
Self authored.
Cherishing the gift of god,
but with silent laughter.

Floating dynasty upon the water,
Field my dreams, take my island,
Let me spend my days a wander,
Looking for your prodigal child,
With no time for spectacular novels,
Cobblestone violence or love chided.
Machiavellian influenced religion,
Post irony, Post music,
Long, long, into the future.
Where no human exists,
Only Nature.

Read It?
Ask Me Everything
I'll push Gord higher on the swing
Taking pictures
Drawing them
"Oh, Well"
Is the way it is
Leave comments on my everything
Really mean them
I'll take pics
Screenshots
If they're jokes or kind
Or if young Will would crack at it
Backlit scriptures
Cherishing
The lols
The LMF-ing our A's off
And the rofl-ing
Sun sets daily
Raise the pen
Draw more
Take another pic
I'll call the piece Gord in the park
I'll post a link
That's my art
The Post
How I package it
The reason that I'm drawing pics
Writing poems
Sharing them
Have you seen it?
Draw it differently
Your art can be some savage meme
If you want it
Empathy
Feel It?
It's a personal thing

Handsome men play Diablo Two.
Getting keys forever free,
Looks alone topple trees,
Fire will forever consume.
Millennials play Diablo Three,
Pay to play, stay for free,
Books alone could stand true,
Everything better, Diablo Two.

Bird sings low
Everywhere it goes
Solo
Volume decreased
Old Crow can't hear
Intricacies
Flyin' from old notes
Higher than most tho
Song ain't loud
Used to be
Bird's quiet
Crazy
Speaks
Feathers in beak
Live
Vibes to the beat
Heat
Released
Birds flapping their wings
Squawking their beaks
Bending their knees
Leaving their feet
Lotus grows pink
Cutting through deep
Low melodies
Low sounds of the songbird
Played on repeat

Dreams aloft, desires of the sky,
She dreams for me clouds and rain,
Misplacing my characters,
Rewriting their pain.
Then chastising me again,
What is their trade?
Perhaps destined by fate,
What is their patriotism made of?

What happens with the sky at night,
Do clouds disappear and birds not fly?
Do the stars not shine?
Does the moon guide,
Even if forgotten by society,
Too ignorant to find it?
It stays aloft, as my dreams and desires.
And she keeps for me only mockery, pity,
conjecture upon a lectern of pure disdain,
Judgement passed by the clouds and the rain,
For everything she dreamt of she was.
And everything I evade.

A cold man prays for food.
A fed man prays for heat.
The rest pray obsolete,
Needing very little.
Pittance and a needle,
Praying a life discrete.
Peering through sheets,
Never seeing sunlight,
Only what cannot be,
and the divine.

Times of your life 
Tomorrow a new day
You may slice things with a knife
You have your own say
Always forgive
Do everything to live
