tough road to walk

so you want some poetry?
so you want some rhyming words?
haven't you heard? that's absurd
how can that be?

words are just words and some are written down
some make us happy and some make us frown
flibberty-dibberty-dubbity-flubits
frustrated enough to say, 'that's it'
I have had enough
times are really tough
 enough of your guff
now you have had enough?

too many skinned knees and festering blisters
and in my head I whisper, buck up mister

full of mange

have I been here before?
when will I close the door?
tried and now just tired of the games
not trying to win and not trying to blame

you say that I am not trying to change
dusty, ruffled, full of mange
what went wrong?
sing the swan song?

The questions are many
and the answers are few
I haven't come up with any
what am I suppose to do?

If it makes you happy, I will do it
If it makes me ..., aw just screw it.

roundabout

it's a shame,
a crying shame
who's to blame?
things are not the same.

one minute I love you forever
the other I don't want you around never
'ooh', do you really think you're so clever
back n forth, up n down, ever and ever and ever

nobody wins and both of us lose
frustration in my veins ooze
where is this going?
lost in life's fog not knowing

This is the road we walk upon
The circle goes on and on... and on
