When will I see my friends
When will I see my family
When is our next trip
When is the next barbecue
When is the next game
When is the next laugh
When is the next I love you
When is the next conversation
When is the next meal together
When is the next movie or show binge night
When is the next fireside chat
When is the next dress up occasion
When are you going to make
When is next car karaoke
When is the next
Is never goodbye.

They say it is protection
They separate
They say it is immoral
They block
They say we will tell you what you need to know
They ban
They say it is abomination
A rainbow?
They say it isn’t in the Bible
Neither is the Mona Lisa
Or pants and sneakers
Having pets?
But yet we changed
With Science
We included
Why can’t they?
-Jennie Nawrocki
You gave your life
You didn’t even know me
Fought as a loyalist
In a land without our freedoms
Endured horrors
We only see in movies
Ate who knows what
Had to keep top secret information
From family missing
You tremendously
And now you are
Here with a cross
Denoting how you
Went to heaven
We remember you
We will always remember you
-Jennie Nawrocki
Anger lets us lose site
Anger narrows perspective
Hangry stops us from listening
Hangry follows triggers
Hungry for redemption
Hungry for revenge
Where’s love when hangry
-Jennie Nawrocki
When you took my identity
You stopped looking at me as a person
Now Jennie Nawrocki
Is completely alone.
– Jennie Nawrocki
Many of you know
Or maybe you don’t
But dealing
With anger and depression
And keeping it repressed
So that when I see you
I’m not that girl
Spoiling the mood
However the hurt is there
Difficult to heal
For the confusion
Of where, whom, how
Makes it hard
To solve the problem
The desire to get better
Is strong
Appropriately placing
My emotions
In the right place
The right time
Right manner
Support me on my search
My way to get better
As willingly will do the same for you
-Jennie Nawrocki
The style
The look
The vibe
One time or
Many times worn
Though when
The pose is seen
Your eyes fixed
In wonderment
How
For only a few
Can achieve
Such a look
As others say
Pull it off
Your stance
The postulating
Is remembered forever
Just like a green dress
Binded with one pin
-Jennie Nawrocki
The world is swirling around
Fires burning
Governments in turmoil
Tornados raging
Flooding frequently
Polar ice disappearing
Recycling sometimes?
Trees stumped
Plastic digesting fish
Shooting was game
Now it is just updated
With the latest
What do we do?
What do we do?
Act certainly act
Clean your room,
House, neighborhood
City, county, country
Continent and planet
You help yourself
By helping others
We are in this together
Earth must be saved.
-Jennie Nawrocki
Gaveling just spent a week with my family in childhood home town had two realizations.
1. Hometowns and families don’t change much dynamically.
2. That by everyone else including some of my family Jennie Nawrocki is really hated.
-Jennie Nawrocki
Yesterday I could have jus wrote Happy Easter but today I will write something more.
I haven’t seen my family in ages visiting them for the first time in years and yesterday greeting was so welcoming. I thank them for that and being a family again after so many years of being separated and misunderstood.
Completely grateful.
