Musings of an Aspiring Author and Poet
Lives of the common man
Abandoned to the whims of the few
Beer and barbeques dull the pain
Or do they
Reality is stranger than fiction
Does the American dream still exist
A white picket fence and security
You may believe so, but I’m not sure you are right
~~ Dominic R. DiFrancesco ~~
Settle for nothing
For settling leaves you cold
And full of regrets
~~ Dominic R. DiFrancesco ~~
A tender kiss I leave for thee
Upon thy cheek when you wake,
This day I leave on turbulent sea
Where chances are thy lover take.
Sheddeth not a sorrow-filled tear
Thine heart belongs the thee through time,
Though watery grave my end I fear
‘Tis enough to know thine heart is mine.
Pray for thee my lover pure
In this our night of last embrace,
Though parted love survives I’m sure
In memory of thy angelic face.
Thine smile comforts as farewell I bid, for journey toward mysterious lands,
Thy strength in sorrow thou surely hid, as gently you kiss my trembling hands.
~~ Dominic R. DiFrancesco ~~
You must dare to dream
If you’re ever to succeed
Find your happiness
It’s not about the money
It’s about satisfaction
~~ Dominic R. DiFrancesco ~~
Do not fool yourselves
We’re dealing with the Devil
Our Grand Elephant
~~ Dominic R. DiFrancesco ~~
It’s out of control
Black and blue killing must stop
For everyone’s sake

~~ Dominic R. DiFrancesco ~~
Juan’s tears evaporate before they can run down his burned and blistered cheeks. Face down in the sand he see a vision of his wife and three small children.
What started out as a journey to freedom and a better life is now about to leave him for the vultures.
~~ Dominic R. DiFrancesco ~~
I can hear him laugh
Saying whatever he wants
Both vile and cruel
Through his puckered hateful lips
What does Trump care, he is rich
~~ Dominic R. DiFrancesco ~~
