Premium MemberAFTER THE HEADLINES

We’ve seen time and time again the horrible consequences
when Mother Nature turns her wrath upon our nation….
Like when the high tides, the winds and the rains of Hurricane Helene
left in her wake a path of devastation.

For a while every day the reality was right before our eyes
In the headlines of our newspapers, on the internet…streaming

Failing Forward

Thoughts in turmoil 
Make the mind meek
Drought in rainfall 
Flooding the night

The scent of success
Slays in solitude 
Let sentient stand
To see beyond sentiment 

The brain you water grows greener
Like a toddler toddling
No deadline to making headlines

Premium MemberI Dread To Read the Headlines

I dread to read the headlines 
They are so filled with strife 
The tyranny and trauma 
Has touched on every life. 
What is it with us humans
We think we are supreme
We are but a corpuscle 
It makes me want to scream. 
We entertain the bull that’s plastered on the screen
We don’t need to be tolerant

Stop Light Operators Go On Strike, 'Bring Back Casual Friday' Headlines Read

the little mice
that operate
traffic lights
recently went
on strike.

they said 
it was the working

have you ever
seen a mouse
try to put 
a tie on? It's a 
tough ask for
their little paws.

anyway, in their
absence, the city
emergency hired
frogs to code-switch
reds & greens.

it's great to see
little amphibians

He was going to write his masterpiece
“The road to London” but the coach from
The airport had a blowout.
When he finally came to London, and it was
Morning and reading the headline
which asked several coaches have suffered

Another more sober paper said the accidents
were due to poor maintenance but that is

Heartache Makes Headlines

Periodically writing random thoughts on a piece of paper is my secret escape. 
Left for healing and mending. Right for healing and mending. 
Painful, nonetheless. Don't be ashamed. 
I am the scrawler of my racing thoughts and cannot seem to scribble out
a delimited shape to catch where I would like my fate to fall. 
Sometimes
