Sediment
sometimes to hold it together
it's better to leave it alone
to forgive and forget the heartache
and learn from what is known

can you file it all away?
or hide it under a rug
pretend it doesn't really matter
cast off with another shrug

wasn't a love worth saving
the time a total...

Candy-Coated Sediment
I thought I was complex...
Multifaceted, divinely complicated
But I was very, very mistaken
You read me like I was playing cards with my hand tattooed on my cheeks

I fell for your charm, your depth...
your candy-coated sediment
Fortunately you fell a bit short of your goal of destroying me
Luckily...

A Shower of Sediment
In such a whimsical action 
a half-asleep routine 
shaped disrobed and left stark naked
this vehicle, this housing, a shell
scarred skin, greying hair, bones, muscle 
and more besides with plenty of stories to tell.
Awash with collected fallacious matter
amid mind obstacles and other clutter
clinging like feathered shards
decorating...

Seductive Sediment
Cellotape a cornflake to a six inch singular cheese packet then swing under and over the metronome roundabout. And a coffee coloured synonymous character can be overlaid with biscuit coloured charm but lying down on an apple cake can be most advantageous in the winter...

eddy's leftovers from - life's sediment-alley-time currents
-----------------------------------------------------------------

musing a roadside can
send a mental image of...

a sediment-alley time-traveler
stilled yet echoing past times...

in memorium of some time-current beats miss't
that changed an eddy to a send-a-mental tune...

Premium Member Common Sense Sentiment Sediment
Common sense saves the day when deliberation cannot find a way
An instinctive practical knowledge born of gut feelings.
Common sense - a rare inherent inbuilt wisdom, seldom called on, except as a last resort.
It is often cited after the event when reason and deduction has failed:
'Why...

Premium Member Sediment
Its to your health I drink today
And you can drink to mine
If you feel better than ok
Whatever wine is fine
But there’s a sediment I see
Down at the bottle base
So shall I drink up to degree
That saves the same old taste?
How come the sediment appeared
Don’t ask,...

Sediment Layers
The silt accents with no regards, it works steady to cover the earth.
The only exception way up above, there it scatters where the prisms give birth.
Yet down here it only blankets and buries below.
When there's no decision, it truly just goes where it goes.
My desire...

lava spews red glow


angry flow casts fear-


boil sheds bitter truth



rock pool overflows


droplets mock shallow borders -


drenched tears surrender



waste land heaps anger


worms wiggle madness


leaps of treasures rise above
