  1. "When I go
    I'm gonna be gone
    and you ungrateful creatures
    will be on your own"
    said the shepherd
    to the complacent sheep
    as the perimeter wolves
    eagerly count the days
    and await their feast
    without the inhibiting presence
    of a viable deterrent
    to #rein in
    or deter
    their predatory ways

    For you see
    my fellow herd crew
    this support structure
    a few of you bleating
    dumb mutton fools
    wanna send away
    cause of their imperfections
    exists not only for our protection
    but to guide us through
    the dark forest when we are lost

  2. LUST REVOKED

    Exhausted I stare at the puddle
    with a cleaning rag in my hand
    as I see a whale emerge
    turning lustre to shade
    Bravado flattens
    departure fades
    new chores loom
    over
    me

  3. Anything ... and everything.

    -
    QUENCH

    Zest giving zest to yellow fluid
    Enticing me in scorching play
    Not xerophilous I sway
    Grave determination
    Barely bearable
    Enrich'ning quench
    Eye's apple
    On hot
    Days

  4. When I once wandered...

    -
    GOLDEN WRAPPER

    The light almost preternatural
    I wander under leaves in flight
    They rustle like a golden
    Wrapper as I further
    Dive into the bright
    Hues I harvest
    'Neath sparrow's
    Glinting
    Eye

  5. Caught a moment, there...

    -
    CAUGHT

    The fly won't article the spider
    For spinning the net shimmering
    In soft hues of abalone
    Atween late Summer's vines
    That crimson upon
    Fall's potency
    During bird's
    Morning
    Song

  6. What would you scope out?

    -
    OBSERVATION

    A rolled up leaf on a rose bush late
    In Summer reminds me of days
    When I dreamt of being a
    Stargazer and would have
    Leafily scoped out
    Constellations
    Cosmic mist
    Prayer
    Lost

  7. Call us pretentious

    Criticize our lifestyle
    as over the top ostentatious

    Not gonna let negative you
    bludgeon the #jovial mood
    we choose
    and allow those miserable critics
    to skewer our pursuit
    of all too elusive happiness

    Go piss down from above
    on somebody else
    and leave us happy peeps be

  8. When Neptune gets horny
    he thinks nothing
    of seducing a fair mermaid
    by promising to turn them human...

    Exhibit A
    that even Gods will say
    anything to get laid..

    After the spent Neptune
    banged the gullible maiden
    doggy style
    he turned her expectant ass
    into a flounder..

    No quid pro quo
    post epic sex show..

    Not the girl princess
    like he had #promised

    So in the end
    he screwed
    the now pissed victim fish
    twice in one day

    Now she regales
    her flounder girl friends
    the cautionary tale
    of her quick tryst
    with the God of the Sea
    who now exists
    on that infamous list
    of asshole men
    who can never be trusted

    And as a bitter cherry on top
    she adds in the rating disclaimer
    that the selfish bastard
    wasn't that good in the sack

  9. Today we bury
    the last wordsmith
    in captivity
    who wrote
    in an archaic format
    formerly known as poetry

    We perform this somber #elegy
    in the shadows of anonymity
    for as you all know
    freestyle writing
    (in fact freestyle anything)
    was banned long ago
    by those beasts now in control
    who fear the power of creativity
    more than terrorists with guns

    So truth me told
    (another dangerous commodity)
    this burial ceremony
    is really a requiem for us
    trapped in a stagnant society
    that has gone flat line

  10. ...fade to black

    Just like that
    it's over

    Why?

    Because EVERYTHING ends

    Eternity such a heavy word

    A timeless concept

    Far too large
    for us to wrap our arms around

    So we live in the finite
    confined by the invisible boundaries
    dictated by the clock

    The pendulum beat
    #chimes
    out the hours

    Gently reminding us
    don't take today for granted

    Carpe Diem or bust

    #vss365 #poetry #poem #amwriting

  11. The dead clock
    nailed to the wall
    knows nothing at all

    Hands hang frozen

    Batteries long ago drained

    No one around
    knows how
    to replace them

    The clock maker creator
    is nowhere to be found

    They left behind no instruction manual

    No useful blueprint as reference

    Time supports
    the innocents who believe
    in this busted concept
    even when there
    is no way to explain
    with confidence
    the theoretical evidence
    they will likely never see

    Not frustrated by the void of silence
    that haunts us cynical skeptics
    wrapped in our cold shrouds of rationality

    Mocking the faithful
    with their ticktock beat
    existing in a vacuum
    of empirical impossibility

    For if a clock #chimes
    somewhere in the Universe
    and no one hears it
    does eternity
    even exist?

  12. Rarely have I had such a frequent visitor to my dreamspace. You have something to confess; something you deeply need me to understand. Most of your words #evaporate as my consciousness shifts. I could have sworn you said you'd gone blind in your left eye. Tell me more.
