Play some bingo - have some fun
So what if a bit of gamboling is done!
Maybe win the big blackout
Then "bingo" you will have to shout!
In far-off places
More darkness than light - few rules
I have your heart, smile
Power is cut, but I write
Your light: no blackouts ever
Let the lamp turn off,
the lampshade, the torch...
Not, the morning light..
Not, the candle of life!
There once was a man named Freddy
he worked very hard and steady
his battery wore out
recharged in the blackout
now he’s Freddy Never Ready
Trees and branches sway.
The power has moved outside.
The house is too still.
A wren chirps sweetly,
defying chaotic winds--
innocent solace
Ellipsis verses
Blackout like a blunt dagger
Blank note had posted
If the wishes,
quiet...
passions,
turn off...
I look for dreams in
divine... !
If the wishes,
subside...
if love,
ceases...
i pursue fresh dreams
in the stars... !
Disastrous
upended
trajectory
again and again
bucking efforts
a palpable sense
shifted
knowledge
even among the most defiant
believe the writing is on the wall.
She collected
his every phrase
like an assortment
of antiques.
She realized
she could also
sort them by date.

Original text
"Rainy days are like the souls
Cloudy moments, casting gloom
But even in the quiet drizzle
There is a bloom that starts to look"
Black out poem
Rainy days
Are the souls
Quiet bloom.
the lights flicker
power goes out
a candle now burns
as I sit on the couch
so romantic
we sit and cuddle
everything perfect
magic of the dark
over in an instant
the lights on with a start
Digital blackout
Another ecovictim
Saved by library
(Ecovictim refers to anyone impacted by any economy as of late. More specifically, me when I had to budget without Internet service and relied on the public library.)
I was in a bar
I was struck in the head
3 times
The knee
3 times
Didn't step back
Didn't go down
Striking stopped
I walked out
Don't know who hit me
Just know he was
lucky
Lucky he didn't
take on
a tough guy
A Absolute wreckage
L Lights gone out in blackout consumption
C Carnage of gigantic proportions
O Oblivion through self infliction
H Hostage to addiction
O Obstructionist behaviour
L Liberation is possible

Intrusive growing with a stir
pushes you over the border;
I can't take it any longer;
Out of order, out of order;
Deadly quiet as I reached out
all that escapes me is a shout;
It all ends now without a doubt;
Total blackout, total blackout.
The faux fury has subsided
the acrid smell of pseudo battle
awakens wary sparrows
unsure of the victor
silence does not quell
the hangover
nor daylight erase
the blackout
of whiskey'd warriors
snoring on weeping lawns

Foggy monday
Mourning sunday
Saturday blackout
Death by boozing Friday bruiser
Thursdays web of mid-week loser
Wednesday filled with pills and shots
Drink it up with Tuesdays lot
Foggy Monday finds its calling
In a sweaty sot on the ground, crawling
It's time to go to bed,
After a long day I lay my head down to sleep,
Sleep I dread.
Reading a book,
Will it be about a pink sheep,
look~look.
Blackout,
I hear a jeep,
out.
It's time to go to bed,
Will it be about a pink sheep,
out.
I have all but lost my faith,
And I am certain I never know
My Mind is the only safe escape-
As the Woes of Life doth take their toll
Lo, this World is all but fair!
(But 'tis only a brief, short-lived stay)
Oh, my Soul of sweet despair-
May the Hands of Death carry me away...
I spared some wine,
Some love’s change,
One candle
Left from the last blackout,
And a dry rose –It is February, I did not find a wild rose.-
I also gathered some wood from the nearest forest
Under the heavy snow
For the fireplace.
These are my offer for valentine
As simple as my smile.
dark tremors do take one to unlighted places,
what triggers this loss of our hold on the paces?
cold scared and alone in reality unknown,
yet still footprints i leave in a world of my own
drenched, shaking the chill off from journeys in stoned
waking dreams shatter faces of villains we know

a gray day
Rain falls
so pleasant
WIND blows
so meek
Come
home
at
last
Hiding the past
Live fully
See the CENTER of what must be
Then do it.
** pls see about poem for photo :) thanks
Thunderstorm-wrenched night
hit dark rains on window pane,
stuck alone in blackout room,
heard knock on creaking door,
sense shook in shade of leaked lantern.
