Part Five

Some couplets apart
         much remains redundant

inapt by way of pointing to fresher vistas
  and those that follow the rarity of...

Does not need either ring or a locket,
Love like beer, always loan, (2)

You think you may indeed need...

I must not end this story
with a happy ending as many
stories that are written for money;
I have come to the conclusion
that I must not end this story
and enhance it with allusion!

Then at times, a whole village can help someone's sister or brother
Believe that no one is better than,
And that it is always important to lend a hand

Next to my son's anger
plate tectonics are nothing
to me. His unhappiness
was caused by me.
His purpose and mine
is to catch photons and
store them in our bones.
Time measures change
which continues without self-doubt.
There is no self there.
Therefore, why...

Two love birds in soft tune and no further strings attached

It grows
beneath the surface
It grows
Behind the curtain

It grows
And when it is seen
It’s too late
It’s there to stay

It is like a gas
Hovering 
Following
Enveloping those

In its Smokey tendrils
Entrapping 
Clinging like brambles
To clothes

It coils itself
Around 
Tighter and tighter
It...

In recent daydreams, I bemused
trekking the wild African plain -
herds of hippoes and elephants
petrifying prey with their might.
Envisioning the behemoth 
I recall a story about
behemoth’s strong powerful tail. 

So my reverie is confused.
An elephant’s tail...

there is a dark little monster that lives within me
whispering 
clawing
its only desire is to escape
i hold my hands to my throat
Gasping for air
Its clawing for a way out
at the same time
its killed

He reverts back to the scars of his youth
Fighting the demon he’s turning into
Trying to sweep away a fire
As he holds the igniter
Lighter fluids doused all over the broom
That's been his mood
He sits alone

They stay in the background
 stating a useless union still self-centered
 powerless, ill-prepared, inept entity of promises,
 the verbiage of false hopes with all the dos and donts,

watching, waiting, predicting, and anticipating
 another's demise into...

Sun now rising in the east
renews its vows with mother earth.
It's rays regenerating life
dark of night so selfishly stole.

As I absorb its warming rays
my mind reverts to you.
Like the sun, you made my darkest hours

These chairs are uncomfortable
probably designed for that one purpose.

Those around me make no attempt
to acknowledge my existence
as if I am the product of their illness.

These chairs are uncomfortable
I wonder if they feel the same.

The wait...

Love is …

Love is a gamble, love hurts
If only the pain was something that reverts 
Love is testing not always kind 
Love  can lead us all to be blind
