Niche

Here I sit Gaze at blank iPad page; No words come ~~~~~~~~~ Sunday somnolence A day of rest; Sleep and company ~~~~~~~~~ Digital movie at home "Salt" without pepper; Unexpected twist ~~~~~~~~~ Tired eyes drooping Too much to soak in; Information overload ~~~~~~~~~ Inspirational book Useless without action; Substance embodies ~~~~~~~~~ Words inspire Act with sure tact; Fruits from seeds ~~~~~~~~~ There will be time Time for doing; Waiting on timing ~~~~~~~~~ Do the right thing At the right time; For the right reasons ~~~~~~~~~ Darkness invites Cover for the unknown; Fear marks courage ~~~~~~~~~ Moonlight glow After drenching downpour; Dreamy desolation ~~~~~~~~~ Dark, dark this deep night Wet deserted winding streets; Street lamps glow eerie ~~~~~~~~~ Midnight hour stalks Sleepy world in slumber; Not a soul in sight ~~~~~~~~~ Silence keeps company Swirl of aqueous breeze; Shiver on the spine ~~~~~~~~~ Last gulp of water Just before bedtime; Tipsy dreams intervene ~~~~~~~~~ Poise of sleepy eyes Closing on a dream; Hurling astral worlds ~~~~~~~~~ Do I date niche A crazy metaphor; Bedtime fantasies ~~~~~~~~~ Leon Enriquez 16 November 2014 Singapore
