a forgotten kettle on the stove,
the absurd claim that Tuesday had vanished,

Premium MemberLadder Sways in So Many Ways

...
I linger, to pause for a while,
between the ladder rungs of what's been done below,

Closer Than We Think

...The night arrives unexpectedly,  
Shrinking the meadow,  
Gradually, we become shadows,  
Our youth, enthusiasm, and vitality eroded by time.  

An evening spent with my father,  
Time has tran...

Dereliction of the conscious is an annoya...

Premium MemberIt ain’t heavy it’s my boulder

...One must imagine Sisyphus’s

play out—
projected onto the insides of my eyelids,
a film I’ve watched a thousand times.

...The Wind arranged and rearranged
                                            the sediment

As clocks tick incessantly
We, the shadows of existence
Act out our scenes
On the glorious global stage.
