Left there yesterday to get here early
Didn’t get lost but...

Cat 5I saw a cat quartet within my dodgy dream,
Sorta started worryin' that I'd gone off the beam,

When he sees the guitar strings
Jack’s mirth grows soaring wings;

Being At Choice - An Echo PoemI Woke Up
I woke up this morning to nothing,
Emptiness crowded my lonely room,
The sound of silence was deafening,
I was blinded by the rays of gloom,

Thanking them for the joy their playing brings
Reminiscent to a puppet master they strike the strings
Like a ventriloquist with seemingly voicelessness the object sings.
Sometimes seated or...

Cantilever bridge, a one stop halting site for gossip and suspense.
Small talk, bespoke winged creature, Combe of pleuron.
Turin shroud spotter in the...
