Long Woogie Poems

My ebbing physical prowess and strength

noticeably decreases in one direction.

I take lock, stock and barrel 
to revisit good ole days of yore
quite conscious undeclared state of war

See a myriad melange of
Tortured splenetic
Souls and great spirits
Noble and soothfast

Great city,...

Swaying fro

A player of the art
Ballerina with a heart
Rhythm harmonic

Ease when I am

Relatively with the assistance of brain
Understands my plight
Tempts me to dance and
Hushes my emotions..!!
