SHATTERED-BROKEN PIECES

I wrote this with Vidablogg.  This was something I have never done before but enjoyed doing so much.  She wrote me her thoughts and I used her words to write this.  I felt honored to get to do this with her and it was truly a partnership in emotion.  Thank you for writing this piece…

SMILE AND LET IT BE

WRITTEN BY HASTY HUSBAND I care But do I Feelings I share But so many left behind   I am not who I am Hidden behind the old man Struggling with fiction Contrast to my reality   What is important I do not know Clarity escapes me Confusion I see   We are all liars…

HIDING FROM ME

Written by Stuphblog and HastyWords   Distress strolls down my street Kicking cans to the curb Looking in all the windows Trying its best to find me I attempt to find refuge A place I’m safe from its clutches I withdraw deep into myself Despair nips at my consciousness How did I allow myself to…

THE ABBY NORMAL HEART

Have you ever seen Young Frankenstein?  If not you should, Gene Wilder and Marty Feldman are genius.  Anyway, I am frustrated…and for some reason I thought of this scene.  I am frustrated because I feel like Frankenstein sometimes.  I guess maybe we all do.  Like we were built wrong…well duh…none of us are perfect right? …

YOU CAN’T PLAY

A couple of months ago my daughter came home and quite simply said…I hate being left out.  Some kids on the playground formed a group to perform in the talent show and kicked her out saying they don’t need a 4th.  Yea…rejection sucks.  Being forgotten and ignored sucks.  Yet it is a part of life…

AND THEY FEASTED ON HER HEART
