    About this ebook

    Welcome to my book, Unbalanced Dudes. I hope you enjoy my writings and drawings as much as I do. I write to escape and to take the reader on a journey. I hope my writings and drawings take you away and spark your mind to something interesting, new, and riveting. To take you away to places and trigger feelings you never felt before. The abstract faces create a different boundary of visuals unlike anything anyone has seen before. A new Idea. A new concept in literary combined with compelling artistry of the twenty-first century. This book will elate you and give you hope and let you know you are not alone. This book shares emotions that exist in all of us. I am truly grateful to be able to share my book with the world. This book is my dream come true. I hope my writings--some sad, some dark--will influence all your senses to feel something intuitive and positive. Enjoy the experience. A different take each and every new look. A true revelation of its own kind. Destined awakenings.

      Two Poems

      Nov 1, 2019

      It’s soothing when the newly dead are way older than I am. This guy was 95. His picture—middle-aged, archaic glasses—freezes him somewhere around 1970. But even when they are my age and live in my town and share so many of my habits and interests tha

      Letters to Mum

      Mar 24, 2021

      Dear Mum, There are still times when I go to call you. It seems inexplicable to me that you actually died. I used to wonder how it would feel, and after 16 years, I’m still not sure. The main thing I want to tell you is that I get it now. I understan

      Your Poetry

      Apr 30, 2021

      I once was a chestnut, I hung from a tree,Like all of the young, I longed to be free.One day I landed, it felt like a mile.I need not have worried, I was in Hutton soil.My work had just started, ‘twas about 1803.That’s when I knew, I’d become a tree.

      On Death Row, There's No Such Thing As Closure

      Aug 2, 2019

      It is August of the year 2000, and I am cold. I know the sun is shining outside, but there are no windows in the courtroom. The lighting is subdued, darker in the back where spectators sit and lighter in the front where tragedies play out—like a the

      Summer Playlist: Beyond the Cyclical

      Jun 20, 2018

      It’s summer, which means it’s time for a new playlist. Instead of seeking out new music, I decided instead to play through the songs in my current music library, combing for old or undiscovered gems. If you’re like me, you’ve accumulated music over t

      Exhaling

      Dec 7, 2021

      Around me are fifty or so men, in whose company I will sit and be silent for ten days. I eye them discreetly, wondering who among them is going through a crisis. Who, like me, has a family. Who’s single, who’s been dumped, who’s poor or unhappy. Who’

      Left Out

      You’re off on your own

      You want everyone to leave you alone.

      You don’t smile or even answer the phone,

      You’re caught in a fixed syndrome.

      Paralyzed by the pressure

      Showing no emotion, you’re lost in a dream.

      Feeling no affection, you can’t find the right direction

      You’re still suffering from the injection.

      Poor, rich

      He got caught in a ditch.

      Between him and his sister, she was the bitch.

      In the woods, the boys would meet

      and make the switch.

      No deals with dad

      Just as long as he had a bag, he would be high

      Until the day he would die.

      The day has come, another father has lost his son.

      To the evil of the juice,

      Look what the needle has done

      The kid was only twenty-one.

      November 17, 1991

      No one can bother me,

      How far can you see

      With your eyes closed?

      Open your mind,

      Don’t be left behind.

      In a world,

      It’s no wonder

      Everyone’s def and just getting dumber.

      Hungry for food,

      Living in the nude

      Didn’t mean to intrude

      But you called me.

      Freedom

      I’m gonna play in the sun

      Stay out and have some fun.

      Don’t need you

      When I’m on the run.

      Can’t believe that I got stung

      By you.

      When you said we were through,

      The day has come

      There’s nothing I could do.

      So

      I’m gonna play in the sun,

      Stay out, and have some fun.
