mmmm, I've gotten there better than this one, but it's ok (today's poem: A and B)


A and B

by sheri


We heard the A-frame turn to Ahhh
sitting on those h's we made into thrones

and feeling the house settle,
even our solid backs creaked a little,

my kids would have been King
if our battles were won

and the sun grew cherry trees we
slept under making a sweet escape.

They are not King and we are not in
the A-frame and we have no cherry wood

end table with a lamp we read our own
history on our faces, walls, low ceiling

or high calling, it really wasn't us.
The A-frame turns to And

while we lie on the bed of it, waiting
so long for the rest of the story,

And you were there, And we wrote
the 'B' how you Been? Hedges of 'e'

it was our plan B I've put myself into.
A two story, a true story, a storied life.

I'm more rational today

 just a combination of many things, social media, no free speech, after all the time I've spent, Phil's diagnosis, my fight for justice inching on 30 years of fighting, and seeing no light at the end of tunnel, thinking I'm doing it all myself, and can't get a simple reply of encouragement. plus I do everything to access, and getting burnt out so often, they made fun of me about that too, when so many people are like me.  you think you got me figured out, think again! I've decided to stay on my blog, and keep Messenger, and the internet, but no social media posts anymore, but I haven't deleted any account.
