Summer Shaw Poems

Did you know...

God is in church today
God wears expensive yoga pants
God likes beads
...

I read your works and am shaken up inside-
All hackney sacked and alive
But still
At the same time-
...

You were my first love and I found you by accident
Quietly sitting in a row among others with that blue jacket on-
The course of my life forever changed.
...

Back, back, back
through the seasons
to you in my arms and eyes.
...

You sit close to me
on the porch each day
and we talk about moving to the west
and dream about our new house with rooms
...

Going…going…gone
On six wheels with the weight in the back
And all of our memories stacked
In brown boxes just so
...

7.

It's hit me on the head,
This is it...
This is my life...
Wammo!
...

Halfway through the heat of a hot day,
the sun began to whisper a story into my pours,
Barely audible, the sun's voice broke into the silence
of all sacred thoughts saying,
...

I'm trying to write something happy
although I don't feel that way
Something that will make another smile
although my lips won't make that shape
...

I've been too serious lately
with my melancholy thoughts and half-moon eyes
Always dying, always dying, always dying inside
...

Inside the object
there is nothing- outside of you
Opposed to the nothingness
you appear more than ever
...

A banana whale on wheels with a belly full of poisons
and I drive her with no one but the wind to talk to

I stand on two laced up wallets and try to hold my head up high
maybe to god or the trees or anyone but you and you and you
...

13.

Inhale.
Exhale.
Again and again we continue.

The knots of a fine rope circle in on themselves
...

From the depths comes the eternal quiet
And the other million things sit atop that
With restless bottoms and fidgeting hands
Tapping to different rhythms-
...

I wrestle with words to say to you
always working the nouns and verbs
switching them around you and me
waiting for a true sentence to form.
...

16.

It shines all down onto broken glass
To be devoured a hundred times over the limit
Then spewed onto coarse pavement
Where dirty soles tread upon the theme
...

The Best Poem Of Summer Shaw

Oh My God

Did you know...

God is in church today
God wears expensive yoga pants
God likes beads
God hates to dance
God wants to end it all
God gives everyone a chance
God is like ice

God is Buddha
God is Jesus
God is the Holy Spirit
God is Muhammad
God is nature
God is in you
God is in me
God is science
God is dead

God is love
God is kind
God is jealous
God is angry
God is forgiving

God controls governmental affairs
God decides sporting event winner and losers
God will fix all the problems of mankind for mankind
God chooses to kill some babies for a reason
God chooses to let some people live for a reason
God hates gay people
God hates abortions
God loves rules
God despises regulations
God will be on the news tonight, watch him work in mysterious ways.
