P O K E R

Don’t you know that fragrance can be heard? I assume you don’t. Me? Still drooling to ammonia of that heritage moments of ‘us’.  So, I decided to scribbled words.  Lifeless.

Dang! That was not poetry. That was just words welcoming the aches of cars crashing to a soul. That was  looking at insults as I stand in the wet concrete with nothing but empty validation from strangers.  That wasn’t poetry. That was me ruthlessly playing poker with the SUN while holding  tear-stained recollections in front of ignored mailbox — wishing that emotions are disposable. 

Have I mentioned that I was playing cards with the solar then? Sadly, I decided to swallow it, rather than be lost again!
