Whether or not you believe it’s possible

by Michael Cannon on August 1, 2009 in Poetry

Whether or not you believe it’s possible,
the world doesn’t care.
Our places are limited,
just look around to see.
Marks of us are nearly everywhere.
Even where we haven’t been,
the air we breathed has.
It’s important to take care of our home,
lest it become not for us to be.

A pile of garbage

by Michael Cannon on July 31, 2009 in Poetry

A pile of garbage,
bigger than a city block is easier to find than you might think.
Each of us,
throw away more than you can believe.
The refuse piles up,
no matter what.
Burn, seperate or recycle.
That’s only a little of wht we can do.

Walking around the floor

by Michael Cannon on June 18, 2009 in Poetry

Walking around the floor.
A floor of toys galore.

Be geek by CPU, speakers, LCDs and booth babes.
I’m glad the missus is a prettier than a booth babe.
The missus is at home.
Home is where I’d rather be.

99 there

99 there,
920 here,
2 could,
but 6 and 12 already are.
The longest way is the biggest of them all.
Home, to I travel.

The evening drink

by Michael Cannon on May 29, 2009 in Poetry

The evening drink
of two pitchers
was enough to join
a friendship from across
the Pacific.
A grilled platter
of shrimp, chicken,
beef and pork
sufficed to fill our
palates enough.
Wander home, in a place
not our own. With
dreams it is where
we’re meant to be.
