From stories of knights in days of yore

my thoughts tumbled in my head,

HORRIFIC HIGHWAY

Driving at the speed allowed
On Highway N17, traffic ploughing,
Zig zagging, racing, and over taking

A terrifying scene,
Spades, The queen
Of death on the...

My soul diminished and my heart eroded,

For the third time.

I awaken well before dawn has thought of yawns
It is quiet then, and quite eerie in a way.
The peace deadens distractions, death-hour mourns.
The mind awakens refreshed, sparked by noir cafe.
Contemplation peaks then, and declines throughout...

The head on collision of Mr. Bob Hughes
Tacking it to his wall, he laughed to himself
Those trusting fools, he’d so kindly “helped”
He never thought he would like his...

It’s not my reflection
That I’m seeing at all
 Need to change the mirror
That’s hanging on the wall

Wasn’t I happy?
Why do I look so sad?
Wasn’t she the best friend?
That I ever had

Some things wrong with this...

make your escape under the sofa hoping that

Trees swaying with the gentle breeze

Balloons bouncing...
