Parenting Frustrations  

Clothes,
Simply…
Just clothes
Arguments burst forth
And I cant….

Children fighting
Like this thing
Defends innocent
Lives

No willingness to
Give, to attempt
Anything outside
The preconceived

“I won’t find
ANYTHING” in this
Place I’ve not yet
Seen.

Frustrated at my
Failure…
No understanding or
Trusting in my
Experience

All I’ve done
All I am;
Worthless

I am tired

Bicycles In The Rain

Cycling in the rain
Seattle is my home,
After all

I must admit though
That the rain’s allure
Has waned
With these achy joints
