You can stretch it out nice and long
But don't go until it snaps
This rubber band can take a lot
Before it develops cracks
Take time to relieve the tension
Lest that become its default state
This rubber band can take a lot
But it can't do much when it breaks

There is nothing in life
Quite like the feeling
Of laying down
For a guick nap
Five hours ago
– SR Romney 2022
Growing pains like little trees
Taking root in my deep tissues
Nurtured by time and bad habit
Branching out to my extremities
With scarlet red blossoms of life
I'm awash in the experience
The blooming gives to anquish
And makes me feel alive.
– SR Romney 2022
Feel the cleansing torrent of rain fall
Sanctifying all it touches;
Baptism by floodwaters.
Creative destruction,
Bestowed on mankind
As reminder:
We will fade
With the
Tide

Coffee
Morning respite
Within my hands
Wafting pleasant, thoughtful notes
Peaceful
– SR Romney 2022
Overwhelming, all around me
A torrent of information
A fire hose of things to know
More exasperation
I cannot stop or turn it off
Building up frustration
I need to leave so I can breathe
And stop this perspiration
I'm out of there, the scent of air
Fills me with elation
My world is free, I'm here with me
In my dissociation
– SR Romney 2022
You have a fragrant disregard for the state of my waistline.
The scents wafting from the oven smell so fine.
Your crispy cracking crust and perfection on top
Makes me kill my diet; I just cannot stop!
Today you got a victory in my battle within,
'Cause pizza, when you look this good I cannot win!
– SR Romney 2022
Cat in the window
Staring at the sky
I wonder if she wonders
What it's like to fly?
Soaring through the clouds
With the birds, so high
Looping and turning
So carefree and spry
She got bored of the window
With a stretch and a sigh
And now she's just napping
As my daydream goes by.
– SR Romney 2022
Drunk on power
Drunk on fame
Drunk on loathing
Drunk on shame
Drunk on ego
It's the new style
Drunk on memories
So you'll stay a while
Drunk past midnight
Not going home
Drunk before noon
'Cause you woke up alone
Drink away worries
Drink away mind
Drink to feel something
Drink away time
Drink away sorrow
Drink away pain
Drink 'til tomorrow
Then do it again
– SR Romney 2022
