(I wrote these on Thurs.)

Teen Angst
Isn't it wonderful?
That warbling period in your life?
Your knees shake. Your face fills with crimson.
you sweat a lot.
You worry a lot more.
The words, they never come out right.
My heart skips a beat.
And my voice darts away in scared fright.
Does she like me? I wonder by myself at night.
But tomorrow brings a new day. And that is the light.

Washed
Hammer and Hacksaw and Hauberk
Are useless here.
Hurl logic and reason out the front window.
My T-shirt is drenched with emotion.
I wring it out at home and watch
the tears cascade down its wrinkled skin.
I hurl my shirt in the hamper where it
Bleeds with all my other discarded
memories, concealed thoughts and sheathed agners.
I wash away my pain.
And hang myself up to dry.
