>-1985 Jet Plane (I was in the fifth grade when I wrote these first two.)

The jet plane soars
like the bald eagle.

It hovers high above your head,
to carry friends far away.

-1985 Terror

Terror is like a doctor coming towards you with a giant needle or when an older kid is going to throw an ice ball at you.

Terror is like September when you go back to school to meet new teachers and friends or when you go up on stage with 1,000 people looking at you and you forget your lines.

-1989 Mobsters

Bang! A shot rings through windy Chicago
Dancing BearsIt is the place where mobsters love to go
Corruption is the name of the game
Some kill, some steal, but it's all the same.

Mobsters come in different sizes
But they all know what the ultimate prize is
They try to become the highest man
They fight for power 'cause they know they can.

But I feel mobsters are the best
They run our economy not all the rest
Slowly but surely they kill each other
Blood for blood, brother for brother.

As long as they don't get in our way
I think we should let them play
Life without mobsters would be slow
So leave them alone to run their show.

-1990 One Night Stand

From a distance, I saw her. She was so pure, so natural, so smooth. Because of the alcohol, I wanted to grab her and thrust her against my lips but I was paralyzed. I had seen her many other times in the bar, but I had had no desire for her. But now, in my cold sweat, my lust overthrew my self control. As she sat there next to my bed, seducing me, I was unable to move my limp body. Finally, my desire overcame my mortal sanity and I reached over to the night table to clutch her body in my hand. To my dismay, I knocked her over. I watched her as she lay on the floor. My dream, my hope, my utter salvation was gone, never to be seen again. I would never be able to have that delicious glass of water.

-1993 YOUR FRIENDSHIP IS

Your friendship is a smiling face...that warms the aging heart...Takes me out to Taco Bell then...release a gaseous fart...It is the soft and silvery note...Of songs from Baby James...The brotherhood of Theta Chi...and all those hazing games...It is the beauty of a sunset...the laughter of a child...And all the days of getting burnt...From being out and wild...Your friendship guides me through the night...protect me till the dawn...And every dream that lingers when...The alcohol is gone...It is the quiet gentleness...Of winds that walk the sea...It is the all- embracing gift...Colleen has given me.

Read the surreal thoughts on the ~Who's the author~ page. I wrote that the other day.

John Lennon-"Life is what happens to you when your busy making other plans."
Fra Luca Pacioli-"He who does nothing, makes no mistakes. He who makes no mistakes, learns nothing."
