Kidnap Poem

Ever been kidnapped
by a poet
if i were a poet
I’d kidnap you
put you in my phrases and meter
You to jones beach
or maybe coney island
or maybe just to my house
lyric you in lilacs
dash you in the rain
blend into the beach
to complement my see
Play the lyre for you
ode you with my love song
anything to win you
wrap you in the red Black green
show you off to mama
yeah if i were a poet I’d kid
nap you

—Nikki Giovanni

He wasn't famous and maybe there is a better thread for this, but my quick search didn't find one.

My Precious husband died 21 years ago today, close to this time of day.

No words can say how I loved him, or how I miss him still, so I won't say them.

He was the second President I voted for and the first President I voted for who won. That and the Iranian Hostage Crisis are what I remember most about his presidency... He gave as well as he received. He made enemies with Clinton, Ford, and Kennedy, but he also made peace with them. He was a good man who enjoyed a good fight and he tried to do the right thing. Hope he's remembered for the fights he won and not just the ones he lost.

President Carter was a personal hero of mine.
I'm with you, Georgia ma'am. I cried all day after I heard of his death. I'm a sucker for anyone who truly loves their partner. He was a quiet and constant reminder of how good a person could be even if they were famous.


Rosalynn and Jimmie, I hope your souls are tangled together as all parts of your lives together were in this life.




Fare thee well,
Keri

Pope Francis passed away early this morning. He was a huge advocate for the LGBTQ community. A reporter once asked him a question during a press conference about gay priests, and Pope Francis replied: “who am I to judge?”

Rest in peace.

Thank you for not turning your back on our community.

We had an amber alert about 1am today for a 9 year old girl. She was found deceased. No other details have been released. I'm lighting a candle for her and her family.
