Nature's frozen pulse

Sleep like a little baby

begging for bread, shelter and cold without all

like he’s been there
trudging up and downhill knocking on doors 
that judgmentally remain closed after glimpsed twigging -

a monumental fail,...

Invisibly tortured courtesy existential nihilism

Psyche wracked with agony
impossible mission to extricate lovely bones
they wanna remain permanently abed.

I chiefly function to amass knowledge
courtesy assiduously, habitually,
and judiciously reading
an eclectic assortment of written material.

Yours truly woke
with ambition, disposition,

(alternately titled: idolizing childhood's end

Akin to significance my eldest sister
felt toward her “Willies” –

So frightened of what lies ahead
You're my firelight, shining in my feline eyes

You burn away my wretched mistakes...

Shallow-pitched tiled rooftops sparkle vividly
 When lavishly sprinkled with needle-shaped grains  
Of shattered mutton-fat nephrite;

I´m here to bring you
What you don´t need
Another heartfelt poem
Another heartsick plea

Sour wine
And a shopping list
Of grievances
America wake up
It´s me and I...
