Four brief poems
“Skipping” by yours truly
Skipping CDs.
And so many needs.
Lost friendships.
Loose lips sink ships.
His older brother said
He was too shy
To say himself permanently “final good-bye.”
Keeps remembering
Like skipping CDs.
“After” by yours truly
After her,
Often her (in memory).
“Please sir!”
All a blur.
After her.
“After 2” by yours truly
Smoke after fire
From a scented candle.
Don’t drink a handle.
Just light a new candle.
“Wind” by yours truly
Sometimes he just listens to the loud winds.
And not songs.
Separating rights from wrongs.
