My Mojo Light- Blues Poem #12
My days and nights
death in between
trouble in front-behind
The devil hijacking my
fondest dream
trouble in front-behind
She said she loved me
then said it twice
trouble in front-behind
The day I got fired
she turned to ice
trouble in front-behind
I pass out stoned
and wake up hard
trouble in front-behind
With time my warden
and sentence scarred
trouble in front-behind
My children's names
now others call
trouble in front-behind
The doctor warns…
“Not one more fall”
trouble in front-behind
Excuses inked
across my chest
trouble in front-behind
The good got better
but the worst got best
trouble in front-behind
My eyes stay swollen
my mojo light
trouble in front-behind
The river rolling
the falls in sight
trouble in front-behind
