Poem "Her Lap"

Warm, welcoming, and safe this familiar lair, my retreat in time of fear
kept snuggled tightly, in  protecting grasp, from storm and worldly strife.

Engulfed in love that will not end nor ever be forsworn.
In grandma's lap, a place of joy, I yearn to hide once more.

"American Existentialism"

Ruinous, resentful, resilient greed, thy presence so repulsive to men of humanity.
An unwholesome pretentious poison which engulfs the weaker soul,
which once foully sickened, by love for possessions, loses all compassion.
Oh! defining moment,
The dye is cast!
The way is made!
The essence wrapped in Shadow thus bursts forth.
An eager mind; emotionless and ruled by empirical disdain
Inhumanity and pointless selfishness
Punctuated with willful indifference to all
A free-will choice; proclaimed in a booming voice
crys  "Freedom has won the day; now let natural law be fulfilled"
For once conceived and existence proved; in truth I am fully formed.
Perfected to reign,  through the power of self  and unmoved by the pain of the world.
