Sample from Morning Coffee

Love is a simple theme

The journey

Success is counted sweetest

Success is counted sweetest

By those who near’er succeed

That’s what my lovely told me

That’s what she fed to me

The nectar that was so sweet

The fruit that leveled me

The heights of my own sanity

The love forbade to me

Shameful Expressions

Should I fear the same as him?

Simplify my angst and change my woes?

Should I watch his life unfold?

Like a classic movie, white and black and cold

Then plan my steps around his words.

If we are one, our art the same

Should he leave me clues to break my fall?

If in case I fall in line

If in case, they play to rhyme

Should they embrace me just the same

If they throw my art to shame
