What lies behind that grimacing catty coy smile, it’s upside down
Thinking perplexes me mentally, topsy-turvy confusions beastly
Kitty, popping off riddles to confound all humanity’s realistic

I wore black one day,
Into the middle of town,
The folks all saw my dress,

Summer seems to turned to fall.
Winds that blew hot with passion

Both black and white
Kittens wearing pink
Mittens, sit playfully,
While facing the
Enchanted mirror
To their great surprise,
Those lovely kitten eyes
Witness a paper tiger
Appearing in the mirror
With a great big

I am the Queen of Hearts and likely to lop her head off if I...

Two feathers
Caught from
The edge of
Your mouth
From north
To south
Indeed, we
Shall witness

Mischievous grin
Saying once more,
Who are you...

this poem will give you something to do while in lockdown check thier fate 

If I must die, may it be quick 
unlike  Kenneth Pinyan's death.
in my sleep would be fine 
or like George Plantagenet
who drowned in wine.
with my loved one at my side

Feelings and emotions are so complex
How can I be so sure of something one day
           And so insecure the next

A missed kiss goodbye in the morning
Surely means nothing 
Yet my mind wonders
