Long Unpleasantness Poems

The Sun was acting rather strange
With the Moon and Stars concerned.
As it was not content to share the sky...

My heart thumped away, trembling
In the sigh of an autumn grace
Reflecting the moments, when love

Silencing each hesitation with joy
Poured out on the spirit who knows

White trees of massive strength holding
tons of snow never cracking and toppling,
I'm captivated by their glossiness
more than the velvetiness of roses!

It's winter's invasive silence totally dire 
that ushes the murmurs of their leaves
so distinctly flamboyant...

From a somewhat forgotten place
Steps what looks like a man
With everything but a face 
He steps out of a doorway 
Of an old rickety shack 
In torn up bloodstained overalls 
And...

I've been troubled
As of late
Stumbling in the darkness
To the presence of a golden gate

The moment I reach
The glistening bars
I awake, irritated
That I can only go...so...far

That feeling of want
Presses me to find
Perceived treasures
In my empty...

Gazing into eternity,
the clouds poured a rain of unseen laughter,
the signal mirrored a rainbow of green,

the cacophony of unpleasantness,

Come closer.
I fear you, 
but what can I say?
You are the reliever.
Come closer,
Despite perspectives I’ve heard of you,
How dere I?
You are cruel,

Come closer.

In life,
There comes a time
To call all quits.
Not that...

As it reflects on us, self respect we're tossing.

The words I said to myself years ago.

Her wild-child smile captivated many men,

Unbelievable how you seem

What we seek
In the unpleasantness 
We find in situations,
Times or experiences.
In the hopes of closure
In unfair treatment,
Disrespected and hurt
To an extent undeserved.
We seek a sense of 
Peace and understanding
In releasing it all
Before putting things to...

Fear, sheer fear, rules this once-great nation
  
Fear of missing out, fear that a 'virus' will sprout
