Not so young

I liked the rush, I liked the crunch. Never did look back at the fallout.   I had a crush I was so young For honesty, I never did scout  I slipped in the slushbut I’m still youngand I still have a clout   I learnt to count, now don’t blush I’m not so young- … Continue reading Not so young

Disguise

a desire to escape reality drives beauty- on smoothness of substance she glides   she takes a puff blows away goodness- bright nail colors unable to disguise hollowness inside https://mindlovemiserysmenagerie.wordpress.com/2019/08/27/photo-challenge-278/

Tranquillity

dense forests pulsating with fear of hunters’ shots and wild desire   I find a cave with calm ambience redefine peace -it’s not silence   darkness intoxicates takes me to the core unpeeling layers to discover   Tranquillity - a drug Why did I travel so far? https://dversepoets.com/2019/08/26/and-the-most-beautiful-words-are/ https://mindlovemiserysmenagerie.wordpress.com/2019/08/27/photo-challenge-278/

What do you see?

Your shapes are interesting Mine – an aberration   Your words are wisdom Mine – graffiti collection   Your vision is powerful Mine - a hallucination   Your actions create history Mine – a drop in the ocean   I took years to unlearn logic All that matters is projection https://amanpan.com/2019/08/26/brewnspew-cafe-august-26-2019/

Growing up

life pursues expansion to grow from ends narrow to broader views   excited enthusiastic opening eyes discovering our brilliance in the bright new world   tired witty, but sarcastic weary, but wise we return from eminence longing for old moulds   we outgrew the need to know being better than thou -starting anew https://reinventionsreena.wordpress.com/2019/08/22/reenas-exploration-challenge-101/

Dilemmas eternal

I can touch the sun and not get burnt but rainbows distract   should I create history or give in to impulse? How should I act?   dilemmas eternal - the sun winks at me rainbows display eclat   my palm extended I want to hold them both but the mirror cracks…. https://scvincent.com/2019/08/22/thursday-photo-prompt-mirror-writephoto/

Colors

unseen future scares or beckons I’ve got glasses on colors to be reckoned   colors to be reckoned so prone to change with light I absorb shock, see darkness I reflect vivacity to feel bright   I reflect vivacity to feel bright but for a short duration… there’s a whole spectrum in there to spark … Continue reading Colors

Infinity still beckons

I would love to be somewhere there spreading wings tasting the sky smelling the wind cutting through light falling back on earth smoothly, softly like raindrops to gladden minds and hearts Infinity beckons….   Are you the One, God who keeps me earth-bound with no wings aching feet myopic vision shrivelling up claustrophobic in closed … Continue reading Infinity still beckons

Carriers

cutting across wind, clouds I ferry passengers to destinations   I change every moment someone boards, or alights at different stations   regardless, I move on with my face in place concealing emotions   bonding, unbonding seething inside with unanswered questions   will they disappear at the end of a journey or change locations? https://mindlovemiserysmenagerie.wordpress.com/2019/08/18/sunday-writing-prompt-train-ticket/

Over the back fence

over the back fence live memories some pleasant some evil dragging me back in a muck, where I don’t want to be   I ignore them to advance on the path ahead -yet there’s  always a back fence with me - in between living my present https://mindlovemiserysmenagerie.wordpress.com/2019/08/15/tale-weaver-236-15th-august-over-the-back-fence/
