Poem: Full Enough
Over-loving someone, but how do we know when it is enough?
Full Enough
Oh please– tell me when it is enough
When you are full
So I don’t overstuff you too much to move
If I immobilize your spirit
From loving
By smothering it in thick gravy
Tell me
When it is enough
So you do not sink
Too much of a good thing
Why must my love burden you to cower?
I dream of our healthy selves battered in balanced love
I try to keep up
Only to over-love you
Sorry, I only intended a love right for you
A supply to glue us
Enough to keep space
But overall– perfect

It Only Took One Minute.......
It only took a minute. I was sitting at the computer in my office when the phone rang. I picked up the receiver and then laid it down my desk as I went to find the student who the call was for. Within seconds I was back at my desk, ready to resume typing, when I heard the student yelling obscenities at me for listening in to his call through the handset that was still lying on the desk. Sick and tired of the lies he was spewing, I was up running down the hall, ready to kill him. By the time I reached him, I had calmed enough not to hurt him, but as I turned back towards my room, I knew that I couldn’t go on like this any longer. The decision was clear. I had to leave.
