"I've spent a decade like many, waitin' for you,

Only to find your words were never true...

 

Once again found willing, waiting like a fool,

expecting an end;

Refusing to believe blood's that thin...

Only to be proven wrong, all lost,

Maybe it never was, even way back when...

 

I was lookin' for love in all the wrong places

Lookin' for love in two or more faces

Searchin' their eyes, lookin' for traces,

 

       Faded years, just a dream..

Hoping for a friend and a brother,

I'll bless the day by luck or discovery;

A nightmare ended, faith in recovery.

Deep Thoughts

by Jack Handy 

Did I have a brother

Was he ever a true?

Or Just Like Any Other?

?

 

Never found, staying undercover?

false Compatriot, never my ally?

hiding hate, always a blind eye?

Was never a future cast

false memories now ever-last?

nothing, a character at half-mast?

 

So many times tokin' & jokin'

medicating the deeply broken?

Did anyone know or just presume?

ten years in careful costume,

live by calculation;

original, this  permanent vacation?

Presence pending exploitation?

 

 

 

──════━━━§━━━════──

 

Who knew T-Texas truly Pre-T?

once met were we paws to be?

 

Deeply wronged, Broken Bonds

No effort in love spawned?

No Uncle or even a Brother...

Where is that other...

 

Pity me, a pathetic eulogy,

but my brother is gone you see

. . . and now I go too, a shame on me,

long beyond hope, no final plea.
