Closed Door...
I have not been exposed to nothing but his fist,
Day after day after day, fight after fight after fight.
Until this day I still cant do anything right.
I thought at one point I had him and he had me.
Proved me wrong, he had me alright,
Down on my knees begging baby please.
Not again! But wait what was the mistake?
He laughs..."You," you fool give me a break?
Please! let me leave.
I'll go in peace.
If that was the case, I would not be writing, pleaded my case.
Behind these doors my life is a pretty cold world.
I am going to escape one day, when the time makes way.

Poetry: Home
by Jim Jordan
Happy
outside the old farmhouse
a white glow behind me.
Summer winds pat my forehead cool,
winds whose higher cousins cause
When I feel the east breeze caress my hair
watch the red sun sink quietly low
smell the soft flower of spring in the air
Being called home
I lay in this bed, so much going through my head.
I see my loved ones who have gone before me, I must choose
Home is Beyond the Horizon.
I'm leaving Home
tomorrow when
the sun rises.
I'm telling you
this now,
because
I know
how much
A dusty road gives lessons of perspective
Vanishing in the distance to a point
A lazy propeller makes a droning buzz
A grumble
