his secret word


his secret word

he couldn’t keep his word
it flew around like a bird

promises, money, and friends
were to him beating wings

and I really liked this guy 
but he wasn’t a child I couldn’t try 

to convince him to act 
with the decency

he expected of me

so I hope one day he will learn 
but I really don’t have the time 

to do more than write this poem

as the world’s demands are endless

Non-Binaries

Non-Binaries never wrong nor right  neither black nor white  always poor framing  truth escapes while waiting    you I can’t deny I can’t explain “I” there’s another dimension  we’re always missing    easy solutions feel good  crushing doubts with boots  if nature only gave us straight lines  if god was on our side    it’s never green nor orange  look to the forests  subtleties you miss  haunt dreams in an embrace    not those ones and oh’s  didn’t write the code  swallowing contradictions  before they explode
