Boxed

humans in boxes complain the box is different from what others  live in… they feel uncomfortable In fresh air It’s scary, they say too much freedom… They look for  a change of box not a way out maybe a way to a larger box https://dversepoets.com/2021/01/25/dverse-quadrille-119-no-way-way/

Chaotic

landing dab in the middle of chaotic states being stabbed where  voice originates nobody has a clue of the grit it takes to just survive, not win or create majorities always win without debate it feels as if makers of the world died intestate https://dversepoets.com/2021/01/11/quadrille-119-dabbling-in-poetry/

Flames

shooting flames throw some light dark secrets from past tumble out - fond memories take a flight diaries hidden In book covers speak a different language than warmth of fireplace I freeze - a chill hovers neither a pull, nor a hook my once cherished inglenook https://dversepoets.com/2020/12/14/quadrille-118-in-the-inglenook/

Inglenook

untainted untouched yet not a virgin… It is a place  where ideas meet form neural pathways blossom  to take different shapes and mingle with my life I’m fiercely possessive I don’t share  keep it away  from crooks It is my Zen corner My inglenook… https://dversepoets.com/2020/12/14/quadrille-118-in-the-inglenook/

Possibilities

possibility of disaster prevents action possibility of pain holds back love possibility of rain drives us to buy umbrellas, build shelters possibility of earthquakes spawns whole new branches of technology we don’t act till we have  visualised results I just wonder  what is spontaneity? https://dversepoets.com/2020/11/16/quadrille-116-poem-those-possibles/

Magnets attract

I sense a trap in magnets and draw away to retain  a sense of self magnets follow me and then I know It’s not for an ulterior motive they are getting attracted to something  residing inside me not knowing  it is an opposite end… https://dversepoets.com/2020/10/19/quadrille-114-poetical-magnetism/

I wonder why

I wonder why I’m hated so much I make it my business to pull down cosy blankets of make-believe housing comfort zones I believe I’m born  to destroy illusions bred in chambers of  self-constructed mirrors I wonder why I’m hated so much https://dversepoets.com/2020/10/05/quadrille-113-blanket-us/

Seeking forgiveness

Dark hues of midnight blue close in  -claustrophobia  is a word  -for a feeling not actual  happening Sometimes…  I fly light challenging  a kite -kiss horizons visualise worlds unseen -and write Forgive me, blues for all my life -I kept fighting my personal skies https://dversepoets.com/2020/09/21/quadrille-112-the-skys-the-limit-in-44-words/
