The Universes Son

Heaven heal the hearts
of hecklers I've hurt
with nouns and verbs
I hope they can forgive
my scars and flaws
I take pause
before I make a choice
before I use my own voice
even with the best of intentions
pain has been my invention
but Eye
never meant to
cause you any sorrow
only meant to share
and maybe borrow
a little love
a little peace
to see U
free U
and maybe
have a little more Me
I thought
it would make
us all more free
learning love dialogically
forgive me universal family
I only wanted to
get to know you
to live Dr. King's dream
to imagine with John Lennon
to know peace with
the next Jimi Hendrix
and the next Cameron Crowe
and now I know
that we need each other
maybe my son
can cure cancer
for your mother
maybe your sister
can be my forever
let me be her umbrella
her be my halo
love me the way J Lo
once loved Ben
and stay my best friend
become a real family
who can handle the truth
tolerate a sleuth
a seeker
maybe I've become a keeper
maybe seeing me
get up again and again
until I stay up
will help you
and your closest
find your way up.
I believe in us all.
co created by
that yes yes yall
and the ideas
of millions
if I could love
everyone personally
I would
but I can't
so I think maybe
if I can love one
like the earth
is loved by the sun
and the sun
is loved by the earth
then maybe we
can give birth
to verses
and psalms
that make
the restless calm
and warmongers peaceful
welcome to my church
there are no steeples
just people
who are equals.

The 5 People Who Make Life Heaven

They listen when you need to talk Talk when you need to listen They know your darkness Let you know theirs Without judgement and expectation You can talk to them about how you see things They don't get angry or anxious when you disagree Trust you enough to say what they really think Read tweets and novels Never make you beg or grovel Won't allow it Remind you that you're better than that Lay some of their burden on you Let you behind their wall Feel welcome behind yours You feel each other with heart and mind Even if you don't explain yourself  They get you You get them These are the ones that make life worth living Make you love to be alive Reflect you to you Teach and learn Some days the lead singer Some days the band These are the ones You can count on one hand (c) Ron Kennedy

Poetry Tree

I saw no birds grieve No fallen leaves No branches on the ground None made a sound It wasn’t rotten It didn’t die in a storm Capitalism came In its progress form To take one of my last  Best refuges from me I may be the only one who noticed The death of my poetry tree.

Stargazing

Photo by  Gustavo Spindula  on  Unsplash Sometimes I check my neck to see if it’s still Half red, half dirty and half um Andrew, I’m still gonna need some Help with that Math We live in an era where Before you even speak an opinion You might be attacked For what you have Or don’t How you look What you might say How you act Who you love Where you live That you give a damn about facts That you empathize with those cast As villains in the common narrative Or even that you don’t naturally fall in line Being of your own mind Self-educated Self meditated Spiritually in moments sublime I lay on my back & count the stars listening to For Now Thinking on philosophies that rhyme Alone & feeling fine.
