Life's Frivolity !!

I have walked the tight rope of chance.
I have trod the razor’s edge of risk.
I have flown through many thoughts of. 
I have taken wing passed all that could have been. 
I have, with much of life, the world of humanity – seen....

There’s an air of excitement
Amongst most cultured of Spain
Centred around a little hamlet
On the Andalusian Plain.
They are arriving by the plane load,
Helicopter,  and even limousine 
For the opening performance of
An event never ever before seen.
It’d the Ballerina, late of Barnsley
And her dance partner the...

Finally leaving the stage after
Twenty  seven encore calls
A huge sense of elation as 
The last curtain finally falls.
There’s all the media interviews 
That she has yet to face
Then perhaps she can retreat

FRIVOLITY

pleasure
 of  people-watching
 witnessing
ruses
 subtle
  or blunt

 the prospect
of spectacle
so

She wore a singlet and a tutu,
Ballet pumps and slide in hair
And she practiced rigorously

But frankly her dancing skill 
Was rather one of dross,
Her Dying Swan resembling

Cursing under his breath
That...

is not enough to build strength,
confidence makes one thrive;
leave all failures on the shelf!
Fear makes a liar shrive,
he's afraid of a wavelength!

Survival is not frivolity,
rather a required amenity
to instill confidence in us;
take grit and defy doubts!

Plan ahead your long-dreamed journey, 
either in...

The awful insignificance of history
is laid bare by the titillating lightness

Temporal Dilettante Journalist 
David J Walker

no-thing need not name the nameless 
breaks the morning in disguise 
shakes the shame and wakes the shameless 
quench tormented turbid eyes 
the bootless errand realized 

who shakes the hand but shuns the banquet 
a polymath of nullity
a picnic spread...
