"I Choose Rainbows"


Chapter 1
Words From The Keyboard

By sholessjo

 
 
I like to write
It provokes thought
 
Dreams from another era
Grow bold
In my mind
 
And I sit
At the computer
Awake in a dream
 
My mind
Bursts with perception
And I think back
To a world
Lost
In the measurements of time
 
Milliseconds pass
 
Fleeting moments
Of images
So vague
Flash bye
Then disappear
Like dark shadows
That fades
With the birth
Of a rising sun
 
And I feel
 
 
I perceive 
 
Vision with emotions
Fill my head
And I comprehend
The beauty of the word
 
Of the stories 
That live
In the back
Of my mind
coming forth
 
From I know
Not where
 
I just type
 
 
 
 
 
 


Chapter 2
Tears of Sorrow

By sholessjo


Tonight's the night
Without my love
When shadows
Lead to darkness
And I am alone
With my thoughts
So alone
In darkness

Where or when
Did life begin
Alone I am
In void

Dark shadows
Lead
To loneliness
And tears
Erupt
In sorrows
And I am again
Alone again
Lonely with my tomorrows







Chapter 5
A Mad Man

By sholessjo


 
Hey amigo
It's me
 
I've come to visit 
There's a rumor circulating 
That you
 
 
Yes
I am
I asked myself 
A question 
 
Every day
The same question 
Dah dah dah dah dah
And I answer myself 
 
You're never around 
 
Of course not
Cracker Jack
You've got a few
Issues
 
Your biology sucks 
 
You're.tired 
You screech
Your noodle aches 
And you're 
Shut down
 
Why not hide 
If I can
 
You're older than old
And daffy
When you smoke
Weed
 
But pain is pain 
Except for my head
I feel
Like a kid
 
That's because 
You inhale the green
 
Yeah
And the headach
 
 
 
 
 
 


Chapter 58
Aftermath

By sholessjo


The cadaver grows cold inside my coffin
Its stench
Reeks rot
Decaying to ooze
The flesh
That bore my name

I watch
In horror
As the chewing of critters
Corrupts the corpse
Of the life that had been mine

And I cringe
With disjointed sorrow
As vermin
So vile in vilification
Attack my carcass
And lay bare
The disrespect to my soul
As I succumb
To mourn
The indignity of my death


Chapter 59
Lulu Has A Birthday

By sholessjo

Lulu,
 
I just wrote you a special birthday poem. It is as sweet as ice cream on an apple pie. 
 
(Just like you!)  
 
It was funny.
(Because you’re so funny!) 
 
And I laughed and laughed 
With happiness. 
Because that’s what you do to me.  
 
(You make me happy!)
 
Happy Birthday, 
 
(Because 7 ate 9)
And you are
 
Seven
 
Love,
Grandpa
