Closing Open Doors

Clearing out the cobwebs
Closing open doors.
Getting rid of rodents
hidden in the cracks.

Blocking out unwanted thoughts.
Holding nothing back.
Remnants of yesterday
are returned to the past.

Unwanted individuals
try to weasel in.
Silliness of asking
to see you again.

Keep strong and say no.
Let their injustice go.
Look forward to tomorrow.
Release the ancient pain and sorrow.


Clearing out the cobwebs.
Firmly closing open doors.
Getting rid of rodents,
They're not welcome anymore.

Tender Game

Who's the moth
and who's the flame?
Just how tender 
is this game?

Sweet surrender
would love to claim
another participant
in it's name.

Time has passed
it's not the same.
Exactly who
is playing games?

How'd we get here
from where we've been?
Should we travel
this way again?


Who's the moth
and who's the flame?
Just how tender 
is this game?
