Dream On
I don't suppose you'll cry to lose
A broken heart.
There's certainly no use in tears

But teddy bears are often loved
The more for being old and used,
And holes give special comfort to
Those shoes unfit to walk in.
Dream on,
Why not accept the truth?
Even apples are despised and scorned
Once bruised.

To Those That Hurt Others
I pity you for the worldview you have acquired.
I pity you for the hurt you have suffered.

In all of this grandeur, I should feel so small.
Soaking it into every pore,
I wonder.
In all this variety, I must seem so dull.
Watching the intricacy,
I learn.
