Beyond The Smile

'Beyond The Smile' now available at www.authorhouse.com

GRANDMA ARKANSAS

HOW YOU RODE IN THE CAR BEHIND THE WRECKER;
STARING OUT THE WINDSHIELD AT THE SKY.
WHAT I'D GIVE TO HEAR ONE MORE OLD STORY;
ON A WARM ARKANSAS SUMMER NIGHT.

DERANGED

I AM A PRISONER, BUT NOT AS A WARD OF THE STATE;

I HAVE COMMITTED NO CRIME.

I AM A PRISONER WHO WALKS AROUND FREELY;

BUT INCARCERATED BY MY OWN MIND.

SLIPING MEMORIES

EVERY ONCE IN AWHILE;
I LET A MEMORY SLIP.
I LOOK IN THE MIRROR AT MY WEATHERED FACE;
A TEARDROP BEGINS TO DRIP.
