Privileged

I didn’t know

what I had

until I met others

without

Expecting

unknown territory

I feel awkward

~

a co-worker

once said …

one’s never ready

for marriage

being a dad

~

I didn’t know

what to say

how to act

~

I didn’t read

the manual

~

was it important ?

~

keep

believing

trusting

~

expecting

My Dad’s Eulogy

my dad’s hands

best symbolize

his essence

~

if you’d ever

shaken my dad’s hand

you’d know

what I mean

~

his big hands,

thick, strong fingers

tough, worn skin

working hands

~

he wore them with a gritty

honesty, grace and dignity

~

Dad’s Hands

Anniversary Gift

when I pass

I want my ashes

to breathe this air

~

as a child

your marriage

was my heaven

on earth

Anniversary Gift

Assault

a hockey rink

the day after

my dad’s funeral

~

an on-ice incident

explodes

in a dressing room

~

I was jesus

in the temple

casting out sinners

~

self-righteous

impulsive choices

~

protecting my religion

~

dishonouring

my father

my son

my holy spirit

~

I’ll carry this cross

my shame

forever

~

Assault
