Listening to: LP: faint

FIREWORKS
shimmering golden rain
falling from a smoked, hazy sky
blackness behind
Contrast with this flash of fire
Screaming, fizzing
falling to the ground
mere sparks anymore
as I watch,
I am reminded of a time
When we made fireworks of our own
6.25.05
Forgotten Days
pinwheels and peanut butter
barney and butterflies
Memoirs of our childhood
Wondrous days slowly fading away
Climbing trees and scraped knees
Baby dolls and make believe
Things that now seem so childish.
But back then we thought we’d never grow up.
Waiting at windows for Peter Pan
Writing letters to Santa
Leaving teeth for the tooth fairy
So carefree, so easy
But now as we mature we realize
Life isn’t all fun and games.
Homework and grades.
Relationships and friends.
So much trouble from what
used to come so simply.
I wish I could go back in time
to hide and seek and blankies
sleeping in mommy’s bed and smiling pancakes
but there are lessons to be learned
a millino things to do
as hard as it may seem sometimes,
what’s harder is remembering
Those forgotten days
When NOTHING was hard
when summer meant day camp and
Week-long sleep overs.
When we had imaginary friends
and played kissing tag with the boys
Remembering draws a smile
and maybe a tear or two
But it’s worth it.
Knowing that’s how we could act,
could feel.
Believing that maybe somewhere...
Inside it’s still there.

The Band
The men are dressed in black
Red ties,
blue eyes.
Midnight blackened hair and fingernails
Walking down the hall
Anticipating
A thousand screams behind closed doors
Guitar in hand, ready to shriek
Waiting to make another killing.
