directionless dilatory daydreamer that  I am  ostensibly vulnerable,
to the serendipitous intrusion at a wispy sapphire cloud flaccid noon,
the minimal load  burdensome midpoint idle tranquil saunter,
meteorological...

Lies Are Wise

Uncomfortable confronting 
your continuous consumption to which you're accustomed, 
the crunch, the chew, it's all you do,

Raised By Hidden Love

it’s difficult to have known

A reader a receptacle for hidden meaning

	for a pod casting shadows over uncertainty

A Tipping Balance

We all have moments when happiness rings true
When everything seems to finally be going right
No nimbus clouds to spoil blue skies or the view

Wanted to show her, his work,
Not now she said, I’m watching telly.

A Critic

A critic
Claiming to run as a counterweight
