Splintered remnant of nostalgic suffering
May your pain erode you alike the touch of stagnation upon a rotting corpse- akin to a wilted rose stained with the stench of fear & longing.

Remnant
As we expand
populations increasing
resources depleted
what will sutain us?
As wealth is held
controlled by the few
with so many deprived
when will there be justice?
As power is polarised
conflicts encouraged
the others abused
when will there be peace?
As we accelerate
communications ever faster
responses more instant
where are we heading?
As we leave behind
oceans polluted
space above cluttered
how will this end?
As society collapses
environment degrades
sea levels rise
who will

snow remnant
Sliver of snow remains
No longer pristine or pretty
Gray and gravely, gray-scale ugly
Dog rolls in it, loving the cold wetness

Remnant
I am the remnants of a man,
The embers, not the fire;
I am the leavings in the can,
The smile without desire.

Abandoned
The town, betrayed by time passed, lies forsaken.
Lost, lain memories, like tumble weeds, awaken
To the prod of windy wisps, and roll willy nilly,
Hazardously rendering any hope of revival as silly.
Whispers of the past, wind borne, quickly fade,
Always out of hearing, always too soft, under the breath, played.
But, echoing clearly, that what once was, could never

Unknown, the Remnant Strands
It befalls on me the intensity,
Catapulted with dire immensity,
Within which lives the sensitivity,
Of them emotions built, the lightest.
Then befell on me, the beknownst,
Whistled in hymnes and in absence,
The peculiarities in offsetting balances,
Them unknown like the remnant strands,
And today rejoicing to the kinds of sounds,
Evilly tracked and maximum on commands,
Nursed the grievances forthwith,
Right so

Remnant On a Beach Gone By
soul submerged in sand
tilted wing in memory
seagull waves good-bye
footnote:
What's the difference between a gull and a seagull?
People who say “seagull,” we assure each other, are wrong. There's no such thing as a seagull—the correct term is simply “gull," because gulls don't live exclusively near the sea. This is a hill many birders have chosen to

The Remnant of Trinity
In the devastating deluge of sorrow river,
swept by the agony current the senses quiver.
Perceptive awareness faculty sinks within deep,
awakens the quintessence so long asleep.
From the consuming entity of trinity of being,
if the mind-body dualism disappears unseeking,
when the distant bells relentlessly toll,
released devout soul hears the heavenly call.
As the synphony of the silenced

Remnant Remains
As she sat in the bleachers
Same people, different place
Whitney is on the screen
But in a different...phase !?!
Fame has gone without a glitch
Unrecognizable, can't be fixed
Killing is normal
Living is wrong
Helping foes
Days oblong
No rhyme to reason
No flow for the river
Hurting babies
No cause for shivers
Dead...all is dead
The soul is breed
...gotta get out

Connection
Something draws me to you,
A strange feeling of knowing,
I know I love you,
Though I cannot place when,
Your smile makes my heart race,
And I cherish the words from your lips,
I feel connected to another life,
Another me, Another you,
Your hand fits into mine,
Just as your lips, completely perfect,
You are soft-spoken,
While I am brash,
You are cold,
And I am

Remnant Pages
memories rest upon dusty shelves
abundant memories filled selves
browning pages seldom turned
painful lessons often learned
baby pictures and wedding books
routes reflect paths I took
rife with love sealed by prayer
mirrors a life I dared to share
family days last minute trips
fingertips whose pages flip
marvels captured moments saved
courses mapped pathways paved
life reduced to tattered pages
emotions felt with hormone rages
friends and

Remnant of War
A Remnant of War
Here I am,
A remnant of war,
Here I lay, broken and riddled with arrows and acrimony
As I watch the birds fly away with my bloodied eyes.
The sky is as grim as the reapers
Who unleashed hell on us,
Ambushing us, we harmless hands,
Isn't that cowardice?
The field is bloody
The vultures are ready
To eat of
