David Whalen Poems

I hate to talk
about ugly kin
But I had the butt-ugliest
lil’sister
...

No person is worth your tears
No one should make you sigh

The one who is truly… worth your tears
...

Colours are just colours
One might suppose
Rage is red…
But then again…
so is a rose
...

I wish you could have read…
The Letters
that I failed to write
...

I’m afraid I’m losing them
Things that slip
through fingers and mind
...

Afloat and adrift
In the “blue nowhere”
Amongst nebulous nothingness
Yet anxious to share
...

Six locks on my door!
Why not just two or three?
You really wanna know?
I’ll tell you so!
why that works so darn well for me
...

Have I, in recent days…
made you sad
Perhaps brought tears…
To your eyes
...

Wanna' know how many lil' kids
Go to bed hungry in the U.SA
Each night?
...

earth wears tighty whites

Fog’s earth's underwear… made from
...
