Author’s note: Still working on rhythm and meters effectively but still sticking strictly to syllables for the sake of composing ‘poetry’ during my sleepless nights. Tummy hurts!
20070820-2:10:28 AM (always present)
From far and wide, I cannot hide.
My thoughts are theirs — blood, sweat and tears
While wide awake or fast asleep,
They know me well – this smallest peep.
20070818-1:20:46 AM (all interrelated)
His sister moon, her brother sun
An endless war, thy will be done
To come in peace, division end
Lovers only, eternal friend
20070817-12:11:47 AM (only One)
I am your God and so are you.
I’ll let you know if this is true.
Please don’t deny what I have said.
Feel with your heart. Think with your head.
20070816-11:53:43 PM (marriage yuck)
More precious than ruby or gold
My tears of love to you unfold
Upon your face a sunny smile
As we walk down a blessed aisle
20070814-8:40:31 AM (more philosophy)
Buying more should make you happy —
Not crappy or sometimes snappy.
Giving more should make you humble —
Not crumble or sometimes stumble.
20070813-12:41:39 AM (mining sacrifices)
Strike one, strike two, strike three, they’re dead
Rescuers tried as trees limbs bled
Holding onto hopeless drillings
Utah mining, bumping chillings
20070813-12:14:00 AM (agitated state)
When I can’t sleep; I forget to pray.
Restless toss and turns — a bother
When I relax; I begin to say:
The ‘I believe’ and ‘Our Father’.
20070812-1:34:31 AM (unknown situation)
You saw a ghost: what would you do?
Tell their lawyers that you would sue!
Then again, it’s all in your mind.
Would you rather be deaf and blind?
20070811-12:55:44 AM (former pet)
Persimmon, our little green friend
No hampas stick to you extend
Now that you’re gone, never to return
Forgive us for we’ve much to learn
20070807-10:26:53 AM (past ‘kind’)
Turned around: ‘Don’t let them get you!’
Light brown alien, dark-eyed Jew
His hollow kiss of endless depth
Awaken from my old world death
20070729-6:45:35 PM (humorous side)
Here is my wish list short but sweet
How to love you without deceit
Behind my mask of garlic breath
Eternal bliss — no fresh mint death
20070721-2:46:56 PM (many kinds)
Someone to trust a crazy man
Tells the whole world his lonely plan
To choose his path – straight and narrow
Into our hearts – sharpened arrow
20070714-7:48:19 AM (rare ‘kinds’)
Inquisitive minds want to know
What is above or down below
Always seeking to how and why
Psy-chicks don’t need to tell a fly.
20070711-11:36:53 PM (life’s perspective)
You are now whom I could have been —
The same old person, different spin
You are who you are: deep inside
I’m always here – could never hide.

Oh, John Jr! That’s longer than I would ever imagine, especially for your conditions! So I shouldn’t rant like this…
