MAYBE

written by: TM DiSarro

@tmdisarro

Maybe you will Be a Leader
Make the Cuts or Be a Bleeder
Or a Shark with Killer instinct
Maybe be a Bottom Feeder
Are you Known by What you Know
Will you Learn to Die or Grow
Maybe it’s the Way we Think
Reap Exactly what we Sew
Maybe you can Fool the Crowd
Acting Tough or Talking Loud
Make a Name with India Ink
Fade away Without a Sound
Maybe Life is only Fate
Maybe Hurry Up and Wait
Back Stab with a Nod and Wink
Memo that we Get Too Late

A Song for Christmas by Steve Carr

I was sixteen. Ma’s upright piano stood against the wall in the dining room where it had been since Ma and Pa were married. It was Grandma’s piano, but she gave it to my Ma as a wedding present. It was made of mahogany and Ma polished it almost every day. I was sitting at it just plucking randomly on the black keys when Ma placed a bright red runner across the top of the piano and, a few minutes later, placed the crèche on the runner. She arranged the figures of Mary and Joseph around the baby Jesus lying in a manger.
“You’re late puttin’ that out this year, Ma,” I said.
“Each year there are more and more boxes of Christmas decorations to sort through,” she said.
I strummed several keys with an unmelodic result and heaved a loud sigh.
“Have you decided yet which song you’re going to do for the Christmas service?” she asked ...
