Long Replayed Poems

justice 

What does this vastly misunderstood word mean to you? 

Too what ends? 

May we seek? 

Who(m) may guide us? 

Endless deliberation (spiss spiss spiss)

1.Remembrance

Remembrance of guilt from pages turned brown,
Opened and read inside rooms of my mind.
Written through time with tears sliding down.
I will claim each dung lit cavern I find.
My yesterdays speak of a poignant time.
Holding the...

Crown of Sonnets

Yesterday's poems now pages turned brown
Lay scattered, torn on the floor of my years
Written long ago with words I wrote down

I HEARD THE WISE WORDS

The day wise words were spoken
It was over near the beaten path;
Where I first heard them uttered.

Some have imagined what it would be like to be different. To live differently, to talk differently and maybe even dress or act differently. Most of which are kept secretly but...

I was an accomplished librarian, who took pleasure from written words,
As opera singers find their pleasure, in the halls where music is heard.

A modest planet and quietly progressing
Troubling no other and fealty confessing

"......unknown destination
don't know if I'm livin or dying
a journey to nowhere
Never cut never mowed

Undertaking a journey
Unknown destination
Wholly unexpected place
How did I get here
Where am I heaven

The day was long and she was spent
off to the pool our hot mom went
asked for some lotion
and dreamlike potion
drifting away she was content

There cannot be happiness in the absence of freedom
So before me lie limp my shackled hands
Bruised and battered
Imprints of illustrious patterns
Disguising my fading fingerprints
I hear the sprinkle of rain, see the sparkle of thunder

It’s strange, isn’t it?
How someone can live in your heart for years,
Without even realizing it.

I wasn’t looking for a fairytale.
I wasn’t expecting fireworks,
Or a dramatic confession under the rain.
All I ever wanted…
Was to matter to...
