Cleanin’ Out My Closet

by Ken Donner on August 19, 2010

Cleanin’ out my closet,
Trying to make some space,
Cleanin’ out my closet,
Empty out the place,
Cleanin’ out my closet,
See what can be gained,
But mostly cleanin’ out my closet,
Cuz the monsters have complained.

Go, go, stumble, go…

Go, go, stumble, go,
Sometimes tumble,
Life is so,
Push and pull,
And to and fro,
Shake it off,
Absorb the blow,
Get up when
it lays you low,
That’s a habit
Don’t you know
An automatic
doh-si-doh,
Stop and breathe,
Then go, go….

To Love

Unconditionally,
Unreservedly,
Without limitation,
With no hint of a doubt,
Having nothing left out,
Without expectation,
Never once looking back,
Faith and Hope in your pack,
Wearing Charity’s glove,
Being tender and kind,
With a pure open mind,
That is how one should love.

Snowflakes

Though they met at high velocity,
I sensed no animosity,
But it piqued my curiosity,
And I wondered how they felt,
As they fell from up above,
In a dizzy bump and shove,
Were they just looking for love,
In the knowledge they’d soon melt?

All the best?

Well intentioned harbingers,
No hope too small to overturn,
No silver lining they can’t burn,
All in the guise of true concern,
Deep in their eyes you see they yearn,
To wish you well.
To be sincere,
But all their hope just reeks of fear,
Their best wishes,
Wrapped up for you,
Always include their baggage too,
Expressions of support embraced,
Come packed with warnings interlaced,
Not given [...]

MONDAY

It seems Monday is just a day,
That most would get out of the way,
By it they would glady sneak,
It’s the crust of bread in the loaf of the week.

THOUGHTS ON THE BUS TO GULLMARSPLAN

Wasp on the window on the inside of the bus,
Doesn’t really realise he’s riding long with us,
Doesn’t know his efforts, frantic trying to get through,
Are perfectly in synch with the songs I’m listening to,
Causing me to wonder and a new question to dawn,
What am I unaware of,
And whose ride am I on?

Discovery

As a boy I tried to see,
To think of what I’d want to be,
Didn’t know yet what was me,
I read down at the library,
Went to school to study,
Worked and raised a family,
Had some troubles – 2 or 3,
Went and got some therapy,
Tried to set my spirit free,
Pretty soon I’ll turn 50,
In the mirror staring back [...]

A Missing Piece….

Those times in life when a loved one is lost
there is little respite for the heart torn and tossed,
For the heart that’s devoted, and loving, and cared
there is never a chance that it can be prepared,
To deal with the pain, the penultimate blow,
At having to let a part of itself go,
First waves of emotion, and [...]

NOW

Live in the moment,
Laugh in the now,
Love in the present,
Unfurrow that brow,
Life will unfold,
Lean back and allow,
The questions you have,
Will be answered somehow,
If you’ll live in the moment,
Love and laugh in the now.

WORDS

We tend to underestimate,
The worth of words, their real weight,
The way that they can cut and grate,
And leave a lifelong scar,
Still their value can be beyond measure,
A kind word used to give one pleasure,
Perhaps a compliment to treasure,
To echo long and far,
So choose wisely the words you say,
Sure to ring long past today,
More than you [...]

HELLOOOO!!!

Be kind and give yourself a break?
Hello! You sure you’re awake?
Don’t sit and moan and bellyache,
Give your freaking head a shake!
Love yourself, of course that’s true,
But take control of your life too,
You know the things you have to do,
No one makes your choice but you,
Stop being soft and giving in,
Show a little discipline,
Self respect is [...]

MOTHER’S DAY

Mother’s day!
Ha!
As if there could be a way,
For any of us to say,
How much you’ve meant,
The things you’ve done,
The time you’ve spent,
The hands you’ve wrung,
You’re right, we’re wrong,
We know by gum!
Thanks for all!
We love you mum!!!

GRANDPA

Grandpa is a couch potato,
Sits there like a lump of playdough,
Kind of grinning looking sort of dim,
Why sometimes it even seems,
That he is sewn into the seams,
When cleaning we’ve begun to dust around him.

SWEET APATHY

Apathy, sweet apathy,
What have you not done for me,
Not disagreed, nor concurred,
Quietly not said a word,
Whether I laugh or grieve you’ve,
Worn indifference on your sleeve,
I’d salute your lack of care,
If I could get up from this chair.
