Midsummer vehemence stows heat for later
Solar film ominously watch hot arc
Tilt tracks trajectory, power cater
Stashes post sizzle to supply light dark
Socket slit subservient incubates
Arrow of assurance inserts cable
Voltage their pairing impressive creates
Self derived to electric capable
Autonomy admonished with a switch
Loins bearing in luxury breed evil
Informed about squalid impoverished
Ignore affluent vantage for reprieval
Overloaded homes groan under panels
Tainted rich roads tune rigid channels
16th January
Wealth rotten wattage

Snowstorms in April
Lasting all day
Flowers in February
Hornets in May
Change most disturbing
Seems an upheaval
From this kind of turmoil
I request a reprieval

All that is completed has come to pass
Like a midnight brigand in shadow
Comfort longed interminably where none is found
Endless searches for sweet contentment
Of the approaching dawns pleasing rays
That gladly warms my frigid features
Esteeming the forlorn and empty of heart
A moment of reprieval shouted skyward
The time to begin again penning raw poetry
Spouting from the depths of my spirit
Now free in eternal flight to ignorant ears
It has all come to pass that which is complete
Still all that it is has yet to be born
It is the hope that carries me distant
Under the darkened skies of the tempest
And yet tranquil guiding me forward
Although I recognize it’s time is finite
