Found Poetry

Found Poem Somewhere  there  the flash of  short-term memory waiting to speak to fill in empty space with name, date, trivia, punch line. holding the shadow of life to go on hundred times a day. I greet my neighbour, who smiles looking for some clue,  anything to break the spell of disappointments in long-term memory … Continue reading Found Poetry

Determination

ash-grey eyes match the charcoal dress make me visualise her rising like a Phoenix from wherever she’s dumped dreams embalmed in an egg now sprout wings fly across the sky on the same path as the Sun Determination beats both life and death https://dversepoets.com/2021/10/18/22981/

Walk free…

minds not at rest wreck peace for all anguish on the table they consume toxicity stored negativity mutes logic they torture themselves and others don’t be an empath don’t feed on sores Cut the chords Walk free….

Subtlety

A sole red leaf on my doorstep birds gather around to guess the branch it separated from… waves hit the shore and go back sounds whisper, but do not tell stories nurtured in oceanic depths we don’t step into the same river twice nor do I know if I see the same sky or moon … Continue reading Subtlety

Pathways

Bare feet bruised by pebbles bloodless pain painless blood strewn on pathways -meaningless milestones -rocky obstructions -tiny stones puncture fast-moving wheels Each one has stories to tell describe their personal hell I just took too long to listen to write hurt in red https://dversepoets.com/2021/10/04/quadrille-137-throwing-poem-stones/

I don’t know why this awakens deep seated fears time machines taking off to lifetimes lived before or those that exist, but yet to come to the fore It un-grounds me with no feet, just wings But I’ve never learnt how to fly high I may just float and then fall into bottomless pits between … Continue reading Have wings, can’t fly…

Caboodles

I moved the whole caboodle to a new premise yet bits and pieces lie scattered on deserted floors broken glass with stains of blood sticky particles that defy definition neither carbon or oxygen they just obstruct respiration when I breathe free in my dreams unpacked caboodles release unknown devils strategies to deal with the unfamiliar … Continue reading Caboodles

Cyclones

it rained dreams last night as clouds unleashed fury -angst of cyclones rising vaporising, condensing then disappearing... I don’t know where -Peace reigns everywhere earth recharged by a downpour electricity in air flowers blooming in the sky A medley of colours nameless, formless.... pouring on my dreams to recrystallise new worlds Written for Eugi's Weekly … Continue reading Cyclones
