round as the world —
round and round we go...
a merry go ‘round, of
multicultural colors,
like chromatic ponies
on a carousel.
a slide puzzled
a brow —
“not possible,” says the baby teen.
possibly the craziest ex-cube
circumnavigates,
surrounds
the inner core
of happiness.
the slip and slide,
a splash of huge
smiles and sighs.
peculiarity of pixels,
a mixup tottered by a thumb,
exciting as a magic-8 ball,
skaken, assured
of endless challenges
computer never runs
out of fun.

3-d stick figure
lays upon grave gray gravel —
imaginary
line drawn around circumnavigates
the resting place of dead wood

This earth circumnavigates in a solar trajectory.
It continues rotation during chaotic lawlessness.
When starless nights rule the terrestrial scenery,
my lantern illuminates my path through the darkness.
In animation during a timeless sequestering,
my character is unhampered by social stimuli.
A vital unobstructed flame keeps burning.
No impetuous wants or desires have I.
Far beyond the hills within their social dwelling,
the gregarious spend lives in a precarious existence.
Transactions materialize in buying and selling.
From the plight of humankind, I am keeping my distance.
blink, blink,
so quick, so slick
almost circumnavigates,
the dot of time,
sometimes a mere
dot of nano-time
decides if you
live or die....
Sandy Times
Trundling over soft
feet deteriorating downwards
Attempting migration
to impenetrable grains
Dramatic curving seas
landscaped for eyes to dance upon
Cloudy lilied surf
circumnavigates at the foot
Colourful daystar
skulks dreamingly away
Big whites enshroud
the navigating splendor
Scattered coral
Impinges the mind
Pebbles placed into
Intriguing decorations
On now rigid sand
Destinations met
The soul refreshed
Remembering
enjoying
Sandy times
