pshh...
storytime please
ill get you through your morning
if you get me through my life
its not that hard.
just make me laugh.
i will make something...anything
worth laughing at.

giggle uncontrollably.
smile endlessly.
vent until breathless.
go crazy like we're deathless.
fight? impossible.
laugh? highly probable.
push the vampire down in a port-o-potty

Chappaquiddick breeze fills the empty beach
Next to the Edgartown ferry.
Two cars, six passengers are dismissed
from the two minute ferry ride.
On Time II takes you on
with a small pink pass.

the most beautiful thing i ever saw
were those eyes
those eyes will leave you in awe.
gazing into perfection is too much to bear
at times you look away
nothing else will be worth the care

i bobbed my head to the tune
stuck in my head.
one line repeating
over and over.
we giggle as we eat
toasted cheese.
shaffer's cookies fill our tummies
on birthdays.

an umbrella
is on the board
next to the date
drawn in expo marker.
it sits in peace
in its umbrellaness.
the umbrella is erased.
a battle between friends.
whether the umbrella should stay.

I rarely seek solitude
Today I seek it
I rarely have bad attitudes
Today, I have it.
I'm not sure why.
Something must have me afraid.
I do not want to hide.
I do not want to be afraid.

Quiet as a rose,
Slightly more silent than tippy toes,
Deadly as a poisoned thorn,
A petal off the rose was torn.
But, still as happy as could be,
The little rose smiled at me.
