His Real Intention
Before he graduated I wanted to do a show
How important it was he'd never know,
I wrote a story myself but it did lack
And would not be very good for playback,
So it was his story about war
But it doesn't look like we are doing it anymore,
Well you see he began to procrastinate
And when we tried it was too late,
Part of the reason was he became ill
So it wasn't all his fault if you will,
His name I need not mention
For it wasn't his real intention.

One Day
One day a friend came to school
And was always treated cruel,
He never hand another good friend
Or knew someone with love to lend,
One friend found a kind someone
And his good life had soon begun,
This friend was soon proved wrong
For the key didn't work very long,
But the friend soon found another
And he inevitably became his brother,
This brotherhood came about gradually
And everyday he became closer to me,
Closer than anything before
And then found the key to every door,
And who is this guy you see
The only guy that's very close to me,
You might think he is my brother
But you're wrong it's another,
Talking in all truth and reality
The person in this poem is me.

Poetry Needs Me
Some days I can survive on my own
Other times I need my poetry to have a place to call home,
For without my gift to write a poem or two
I wouldn't know exactly what I should do,
Like a lawman from the old west who needed a gun and vest
Or a militant who is trained to fight to the death
They won't give up the fight until there last breath,
My pen is very lonely when it doesn't have me
For it is missing out on the chance to produce poetry,
Like the ten most wanted fugutives
If I am not writing a work of art my skill doesnt live,
The talent is locked up in the slammer
Can only get out if broken with a ball peen hammer,
I am not a very violent man you see
But life is not fun when I don't have poetry.

The Poet's World
The poet's world is all his own
With no one to disturb him he's all alone,
The poet writes for those who read
For they're the flower, he's the seed,
As long as it lives people with enjoy
So a long life it tries to employ,
And if it's not a success he shouldn't feel ashamed
For he should not just strive for fame.

A Painful Experience
Sometimes in life we must experience pain
But there is always a reason you see some kind of gain,
Whether it be so eventually we can feel better
If we have aged and started to look like and Irish Setter,
So we feel a face lift is the only thing we can do
A method that is very tried and true,
Or if we have a horrible illness such as cancer
And must have a life saving procedure,
Perhaps, you may need to go to for a tummy tuck
If your husband or wife looks at you and says yuck,
But if your loved one really loves you
The life-saving procedure is all they will ask you to do.
