Sweet and Bitter Stuff of Wonder

I Have To Be A Guitar Player In KISS
If I am a KISS player
I’ll get to wear
the most fearsome make-up
which will make up
for worries and low self-esteem
Relying on others to bring
and keep up my spirits
will be the lowest possible
point I could ever dream
of.

a love poem
*****
In all things done and then undone
I’ve walked, and looked and waited, too
In truth believed, then un-believed,
For I was seeing and un-seeing you.

“How long will you love me?” they often ask,
“You always say that Love is forever.”
“Love IS forever,” my answer is clever,
“Its objects, however, won’t last.”
