The Lady's Cat

This world will offer you fear, instead of failure

Lust instead of Love

Sugar instead of the salt that you need

A temporary change, instead of a difference

Sleazy marketing schemes capturing your focus 

To everything that's non-essential 

Distributing your energy onto scattered desires

To one day only wish to see the leaves change

And the house cat that greets you

Castle

I built a fortress around myself

White great brick walls

It swelled as it trembled to new heights

Growing at my request

I sat on a blanket of dense grass

With the Son hugging my back

Picking dandelions

Secured

Guarded

Delicately protected

Not offered to the world

To be restored 

With self-worth

Message in a Bottle

Here comes the wave

The ocean shoving saying, ‘You don’t belong here’

‘Go back to shore’

You come here with your floating devices

Oxygen to dive

You know you don’t belong here

Still, you come with your food wrappers

Empty bottles to send messages

We’ll gladly send your garbage

Your lovely love letter

Back to shore!

Industry Chick

they were a couple / banking 

on her desires for him / to create 

a fandom / a choir of harps /

angels of encouragement / angles with admiration /

spreading his music across the globe /

his ego grew immensely /

accompanied by the woman 

who brewed this deception /

to exalt herself in arenas / because she

knew the other woman /

was his muse
