superstitions escalate through ancient lies.

Superstition


A belief in the mind 
Learned from another kind
Baseless only a customary
Born from cultural shine

Easy to preach but difficult to practice
Educated brain and grown up science
Always defunct why such immaterial!

believing in luck either way,
don’t walk under ladders, beware of black cats
and knock on wood everyday.

Nobody tells you the rules

Reining in jet-black steed;
Rangle for her falcon.
Repugnant mudslinging, 
Risible in content,
Rankled those in the know.
Recent loss of soulmate;

I've felt a sense of gloom and doom looming over me
As if I'd set a rabbit's foot or lucky clover free

No more can I endure this endless neurotic dance

So I steered into the skid to...

A young lad, upset, with a tear in his eye
It is but a picture and yet I ask why
What, in my parlour, makes him want to weep
Loneliness, hunger or fear of some creep?

It’s said that his presence will bring to you ill
Since one burnt out...
