Poetry - poetry for big kids

by Steve Rigell

woman running on snow covered mountain

But what does fear fear

A smile says so much

Things that aren’t really real

assorted clothes in wooden hangers

The question remains

person holding brown map

The way is littered

brown, green, and red casino roulette

This is how you create your life

gray metal frame on brown dirt

The plan has been changed

Every breath is a gift

Sales is not about selling

close-up photography of man jumping with umbrella

One thing that will always bite you in the ass

photo of outer space

I’m optimistic

One of life’s simplest and best recipes

man sitting in front of black wooden table with face reflecting on round vanity table mirror

Forgiveness

closeup photography of boy looking straight

When you have to say, “I don’t know.”

dog biting brown leash

So you want to be an entrepreneur

person crying beside bed

What your kids want most from you

a person drowns underwater

Just before you die

woman in red long sleeved shirt and blue skirt wearing red hat

Why do I always want more than I need

silhouette of man standing near wall on dark area

Why stories are told

person snowboarding on mountain cliff

The sweet taste of success

man leaning on wall

The privilege to hurt

white and black checked floor tiles

Everyone is doing their best

man portrait photography

The breath

person standing in front of body of water

Cracks I didn’t notice before

person walking on snowfield near mountain cliff

The best version of you

assorted stickers on wall

Labels

two red-and-white dices

Over the years

green and brown rope on brown loh

Cut yourself loose

man standing on stone looking at sunset

Was it something you did?

red and white open neon signage

When your life is in hock

woman lying down on sofa with a book on her chest

If all your dreams had already come true
