dollars

You offered me some dollars
I've kept them safely for now;
Lest I drop into penury
I wouldn't forego
This friendship
And this gift;
Thanks for the dollars money ami.

destiny and death

Death may come any time, 
Today, this second or far
Into the future: But imagine
This if it were near
Have we harboured regrets
For our loves and dears? 
And if it were many years to come 
Are we building causes
To throw out fear? 
And what about the afterlife? 
Who is to know: this moment
Let's rejoice! For death comes
Calling, that's the verity
In each and every destiny. 

art expo

As you plan an art expo for me
And your girlfriend snides me with glee
I smile back, I forebear
For what is near
Is prosperity dear! 

Good action

As the sunset is ridden by clouds
And children play amid the shrouds
Action speaks louder than words
Or thoughts: to good action I am bound.

dream of slander

Oh, how I slandered you
And put myself in a pit of hell
And last night I dreamt
I accept punishment 
But not the knell of death;
I spoke begrudgingly
I tore you down but
Accept you did not
My fried egg;
I know today
Punishment is served
And to the sun
Now I can gaze, 
Growing wondrously
As a sunflower full bright
I can't joke or make light 
But good fortune is
Very near and I propose
Some wine with good cheer.
