This is one of my first poems I have ever wrote. RIP Dad
Slowly I watch life drizzle down as if it is nothing more than an insane summer rain. The children enjoy the rain but it gets to them after a while, "Father, I want to kill you" is the last thing that child said before he became a man. Put on

Honesty and integrity are the ideal of what we should be, truthfulness and clarity are what we should see, are we a minus or a plus, we won't make a fuss, I think that minus may win the game, I don't know, are we all the same?
Consumed with grief I am, I get relief in no way O circumambient waters of the Ganges drown me Our land foments excessive mutual enmity What unity ! Our closeness harbors separation Enmity instead of sincerity is outrageous Enmity among the
Why One single three letter word repeating over and over in my mind Echoing taunting like loud laughter in an empty hall Punishing humiliating destroying Why I can't shake it loose I can't hide can't make it stop make it go

I wrote this poem after an incident which left me witnessing a sense of loss , of emotional carnage. The signs were there afterwards of the damage done, the personal debris left behind, the wounded disappearance of a previous existence. I think of it now when something terrible happens to me, to others...
This is about my youngest brother, he took his own life. I wrote it because I was really sad that he felt he had to end his own life, and I missed him already it had been years since I saw him. Now this is the last memory that burns in my mind.

My oldest son Jesse hung himself on 10/2/2005. A loss that I will never get over and the questions remain today. I miss him so much at times I cry alot. It is the memories and the birthdays and holidays that make it the hardest. Each day that passes he is in my heart and mind. Just wishing I had that one last chance to tell him how much he meant to me.
I wonder..after death, would we want to remember our old life?
