Ephemeral Time

Premium Member Lamenting Missed Rolls in the Hay
Upon well-worn barstools, tales two codgers tell, Deep in drink, their stories swell. Reflecting how the eons have flown, Strengths once had, now overthrown. "Ah, beauties chased, both bright and keen, Yet in our brews, our sighs unseen," One muses, his gaze alight with jest, "Great tales spun ‘bout adventurous quests." Yet as dusk deepens into night, Their bawdy laments take flight, For now, as...

I have with concern been lamenting With my chilly fears augmenting: A young promising morning might soon age And a planter close a helpless page … My muscles are dying for a cutlass, My strength enough to not seek a lass My nostrils fish out odorless fertilizers; The sparks in my eyes Advertisers I shouldn’t ears supply with any story, Now, I...

Lamenting Beauty
White wings with gray attire, a fallen angel But not, that is Muse of beauty with ruby cheeks And melancholic tone, repenting her existence. I have listened to her whispered prayer, when she Accused us of not deserving truth and beauty She asked Lord God to call her back Since we, humans, make beauty prison.

It was a weekend and I was in a mood To reach my home as early as I can I urged the wheels to start a friendly race With the competing cars rushing around. The sky getting dark, is it unusual?
