Moribund
Pale blue, pale yellow, pale green.
Flowers die,
Plants, birds, animals,
Why do you need a name?
There will be dust, storm, cyclone.
In there, what will you wish for?
This trail, this narrow path, this green belt,
But something erodes them,
We can’t trace them back.
Now a metal road, wide, it’s heartless.
We are travelling fast, faster than light,
Are we? Will we

SAVE THE MORIBUND LUNGS OF THE EARTH
Biosphere's tropical respiratory rainforests are on the verge of extinction,
the exclusive reservoir of biodiversity, the Congo Basin is shrinking rapidly.
Deforestation dehydrates the caliginous evergreen region,
scorching heat changed the water cycle irreversibly.
Locking in scanty rainfall and a prolonged arid season,
tall towering canopies fell down~ecosystem lost balance entirely.
Greenhouse emissions omitted approx. 288–247 gigatones of carbon absorption,
erosion erased

Trump Moribund and Rotund
Trump Moribund and Rotund
Trump said that he is both clear and orotund;
What he amounts to is really being moribund,
A total lapse,
Then collapse,
And at same time he had been rather rotund.

How is this one?

Moribund
From beneath the black robe I appear
Eyes glued shut by the luminous light
My poetic muse dismissed as Hogwash
My rhyme as woeful as it sounded
Was written with the colossal belief
Of delivering a sense of warmth to all
In front I stand of the theatergoers
Head and palms moist as if bathed in water
Combating the vocal demons concealed in

Moribund
The sad wakes leaving
Yes………… only petals of
A yellow tulip—pickled in a rose bed grieving
The loss of morning
The mortician's flower Strewn room sees
Roses bloom
And petal
Gaily
The river rides them
And the water dyes them
Black and Sadly its eyes
Are grimly weeping
Into the bank
Waking The bees to buzzing

Sick Feeling Quite Moribund
Sick Feeling Quite Moribund
I think that is was about Eight PM
When wife and I were at the ATM
Prayed to our Lord and also Savior
Thanking Him for bank error in our favor.
This was way above what I could believe
Message said fortune we are about to receive
Man rode in on a horse named Jersey Beauty
It was

Moribund
Stock in the
qurgmire of the
runway
Chains of reactions
appreciating within
my loins,
Streams of memories
mumbling
My heart knitted to
his moribund imagery
As i stoop on my
kneel conquering my
imagiantions,
But the mighty wings
of the dark cloud
touch my lips,
O Lord , not again
My thoughts stood
between my mouth, i
mumble the unspoken
words but the heaven
turn deaf ear
In the corner of my
heart, i slip

My Moribund Mask - a Tribute To Lonliness
With my knees to my chin,
And my arms to my chest,
And my eyes to the dead space,
And my cheek to the floor,
My lip to the other,
And my mind on the door,
And they’re pooling, unknowing,
Forlorn tears, not flowing,
Caught and held by the eye shape
That’s protected and glazed.
They look to the inside,
At the fire that blazed.
But still

Moribund
Aching passion that yearns to be shown
Words that beg to be spoken
Hands that reach out to touch an invisible face
Symptoms of my incurable sickness
Letting go each and every day
Struggling through the far-reaching hours
Bravely trying to make it through
Separations manifested by time
Needs that burn up my soul
Desires that rage through my being
Hunger that ends in starvation
Side-effects

Reflections of a Moribund
Rage
can't
discern
its enemy
when it plays foul;
it's an opaque stage set by fate...
Gray
hair,
and age
are a curse:
if wisdom and joy
aren't there to feed the soul's warm fire...
Love
lives
where there's
the light of trust;
none of us would be
showing kindness in times of need...
Open
both
arms and greet
whoever mourns;
comfort is a spring,
which quenches the seeker's immense

Never the Moribund Monarch...
To capture beauty,
is to go to sleep with black,
red, and gold powder
from butterfly wings aloft
on your mind... not on your hands~

Moribund
"And after I exist, what then
And after life can cease, what then
And after I'm content and free
Set loose from this reality
And after all my soul is here
Without the shackles of my fear
What then?
What is there left to do
When all I've been is gone and through
To live, to rise, to fade away
To burn down with the
