father see’s a mothers red tears
embrace and hold
together as one
a son’s anger,
quick flash phosphorous
explosive and regrettable
yet change occurs
a fathers eyes,
become so different
lens of caution
draws over cornea
digging hands in pockets
remaining apart
unsure of the person
he helped create,
yesterday would not be
recovered,
it was hauled
into the dark subconscious
stored in a file
tentative regeneration
but there would be
a difference now
maelstrom
ardors grip
blinding as searing light
tears open caring heart
anger as old as creation,
tears at family daisy chain
crushing stems
leaving it broken
unhooked green stems
wilting broken asunder
where was the stars
and the open eyes
heart chimed
a mother resolute
that a son will be
not dead to her
but salvage
to be gathered
and supported
mending can be heard
in the blur of tears,
fragile dreams
will be recovered slowly
with different endings
when the darkness
vanishes

you food preacher,
man of spatula skills
appear on lcd tv
and tell us of our food
our lifestyle,
congested lungs and stomach
and inability to feed ourselves,
the benefit louche
and disposable low income,
our world has no michelin stars
siting over
wild tarragon and mussels
instead kebabs or chip shop,
waste of money to some
but we need to live as well
already ghettoized
by paparazzi
obese and slovenly,
try finding money for electric
meter
or 52 inch tv,
we are human remember
lives of our own
and those to be born,
stigmata
of minimum wage
and rent overpriced,
come into our world
if you must
but do not preach or condemn
you can never understand
