I stepped up to the plate, with my old, familiar stance, thinking my set routine, would parry the pitcher’s prance. The first was a curved ball, curiously spun with such intrigue. I watched it drift in, then away, off the plate. A ball! The next was a fast-ball, right on line. I swung too early, too locked up in dreams, Convinced I...

For useful words, the word wheel I will spin. I anxiously wait for which words I’ll win. How many sentences will they complete? Rhyming the end words will be quite a feat. A noun or a verb, I commonly win, While over and over I’ll spin and spin. Adjectives, articles, pronouns for sure, And other types to add to the allure. Prepositions,...

We'd played each other on the song guessing app for six years, ever since we were matched up when I visited Iceland in 2016; we both liked Classic Rock and stuck to 70s playlists For a few weeks one year (2022) I was "out of sorts" and didn't log in; when I next opened the app I saw Haraldur had terminated our six-year rivalry I mean,...

The shuttlecock's not got a feather my balls have lost their tether yo-yo and hula hoop have gone for a loop chasing rainbow's become a boring chore in any kind of weather and me I fling and fly frisbees no more as now there's come the day when games and music I can't play the fiddle has a broken bow out of wind such...

Playing mind games everyday What does that get us hurts only you The one who runs the mouth It ain't all about you it's all about them What games you play when you are heading for the end You be the only one that loses out We go through our day Like zombies at night Praying on the weak It's a game we...

Fleetings are too faint, too few, and so far between. Fleeting is a butterfly alighted with folded wings. The glimpse of love a flimsy kiss on cheek brings. Dewdrops left on leaves by early morning mist. Echoes faint and feeble ...

Loves, kick out all the bad in your brain, don’t let other take up space in your brain. Tell them you have no place, for their games. They pretend to care, but only want to cause you fear. They play mind games, to try to control you, and make you have fear. Life is like...

My life's a fcking mess, watching myself rapidly digress it's outta control.. I'm so f*king stressed I so badly want to change But I'm already way too far from success I let out a huge sigh and stop holding my breath Think to myself "what the frickin heck" And just go with the flow That I'm pretty sure nobody really knows So stuck in...

Life feels like a giant chess game you wake up already in motion making choices you didn’t plan on a board you didn’t build. What kind of piece are you, are you the King central, important, yet unsure needing protection and fearing the next move? Or the Queen bold, limitless, always thinking but tired of carrying too much without showing the weight? Maybe you're the Pawn quiet,...

I'm juggling confetti balloons, Floating a wayward, up in the air, Falling wherever, when they will, Begging my cares to be ever still. I’m the ringmaster of chaos. Rid'n a tightrope chair. Poised on tippy-toe, piqué. About to lose an arm 'n leg. My heart beats a drum roll, To dare the cast-of-die fanfare, To begin before its begun, Before I've got the hang of Juggling these...
