I was in a tizzy
We all know the place, that famous burger place. I went in expecting something and did not get it. I thought I understood, I thought I did. The offer seemed clear to me. I did not get what I wanted, and a seed of hate got planted. Ah yes and like old Blake I watered it and shined on it, making it grow. Until now. I declare that here and now I’m pulling that weed. That weed will do no good for this old world.
Yay!

Missed
So I wrote an email to a dying friend,
and I never sent the damned thing.
It was finished. I could have just clicked send.
But I didn’t and he’s dead now.
It is still in my Drafts - with no where to go.
Pent up rain for a parched throat.
Where can it go? It floats in my head.
Bobbing up to remind me…
Potential energy perhaps. Potential love. Too raw?
Will I ever pluck it out? Will I ever let it free?
I don’t want it.
Go away bobber. I’ll not entertain you. I was not so close to him.
He did not need my love.
He was not really a friend.
Just a distant kin.
I’ll not entertain you - go away! It’s not mine.
It’s not mine.
Not mine.
