Because no one will know who you are

Move On
The Poetical Jason Voorhees who creates beauty out of ugliness

let’s go in a different direction,
to lands beyond imagination

Take my hand, Alice,

Covid-19 Old Friend, It's Been a Long Time
Is that you? It's been along time.

Take the Test
The theme from Schindler's List
moves us to tears, or it should do.
Pity there’s not a genetic test for,

Scared By My Own Shadow
I moved myself through the jungles alone
Singing and whistling disorderly tunes 
I did not know someone was listening
Marking me as a leopard does to a prey

I listened to foxes haul in the distance
As leaves hugged...

Sentimentality
Loneliness slowly creeps up on you
Like a faint mist that spreads 
Which thickens ahead
And turns into a dense fog

Resting
In deep repose she lays there
Why so still, not a movement made
Newly brushed and fanned out hair
What could trouble such a maid

the street lights the only light in the sky,
