Help this foolishness cycle
of co-conspiracy. Call in favors,
call in creation's bliss. You only
hurt the fool you help conjure
as a song for imposter jesters.
Permission will not be granted
to assist the needing. It is totally
true. The best way to fool
someone is to help them.
A lifetime could be spent
helping and harming feckless
fools. Such unredemption
can kill such foolishness.

And the poet dreamed of Alice
who drank the koolaid
and watched amazed as the
albino rabbit set fire to the bed.
Some potions have ill written
labels. This reads: "The last
who drank this ink just so,
rolled up her legs." Truth
was, she sipped it lightly
so, in the mirror-world, she
was hanging from a fading
cat's bough and swinging,
she rolled up her legs

No one bothers a man who makes
North. North makes a man bothered
who no one made. If made, go
North. If bothered, go where no one
has gone before.

You are a screamer
and a liar when you yell.
Exasperation requires
more oxygen. You exclaimed
two hellos when only one
was necessary to say
goodbye.

Don't be afraid to be alone,
I am a text message away. So,
wanting solitude, there are better
things than your phone. Write
a poem. Write a letter.

Things stored are pulled
out when clouds end and sun
returns. Fondly, remembrances
bring creativity to maturity,
ideation is conceived, or
old and young work together.
Things are always remembered
fondly when collaboration
created them.
