Poetry By Bonnie Hodge

Poetry inspired by my work is a first for me. I don't quite know what to say, other than I am honored. Thank you Bonnie.

I can feel the mania 

Flowing in my veins 

Starting to rage again 

The surging waves 

That propel me to creativity 

The frantic energy 

Keeping me up at night 

Thoughts and ideas flying 

Filling pages from a weary mind 

Heeding them as incumbent 

I need to sleep but I can't.

Oh hey, beautiful girl 

Trouble will find you 

Oh hey, believe it 

Heartache will unwind you 

You've had it before 

At your feet like a dog 

At your shrine like a god

In all forms incited and uninvited

Oh hey, beautiful girl

They'll never believe you 

Oh hey, believe it 

They'll sooner deceive you 

You're a victim today

You're a victor tomorrow

How fickle their minds are

How supple and shallow

Oh hey, beautiful girl

The future is yours 

Oh hey, believe it

The next move is yours
