Rough Diamond

From my vantage point
it started in second grade
behind the chimney
to my knowledge
no other little boy tried.

First kisses ...

Red clay dugout
where little ladies
would make me sit
with mud pie lap.

(pause... in memorial laughter)

First x's

A beginning to
very long intersecting roads
world wide.

Not one over time
would pass up a hugged hello
been so many the pain passes
sense's come back.

Never one too linger long
in the saddness of it all.

There's just too many
who want to visit
behind the chimney.

I'm a different type of x.

A diamond in the rough.

Hello my name is Dill -



Author notes

I don't mind handing over x's to other good men. Just as long as they are truely true. There's a lady out there somewhere for me. ...And she's smarter then I with plenty of lady logic in her lasso.

Please tell me what you think

    When you sign up for love, a man like you a woman like me it is for life. Pain can be over whelming in where life takes that love. Fate steps in takes life out of control love can not conquer fate. Becareful brother what you long for what you ask for.
