and nothings going your way.

The praying mantis looks above
The clam closes down
The turtle’s head hides inside

Where tea cups are no longer free
So Bojo proposes
Before a shop closes
Try bra cups temporarily

when
death
closes our eyes
death 
comes upon us
with

In his little boy’s dreams
Tall sandcastles guarded by dragons
He’s the bravest of knights

Premium Member Dark Clouds

Dark clouds gather  pain 
 On  nights without slumber
 Hoping to find sleep 
  She closes her eyes to dream
  While lullabies in the distance gleam

Premium Member Lighting Up

When night closes in,
In the candle light she sits,
With book under chin,
Procuring knowledge in bits,
As the moonlight sneaks through slits.

How Are You

I'm okay
A pair of plastic words
suspended in silence
My mouth opens and closes
like a puppet on a string
destined to dance the same tune
I'm okay

Walls

Often I find time to dream.
My room closes around me.
Walls and ceilings bound me.
True thoughts; images freed.
Walls and ceilings
Slip away from me.

The day closes with grace.
Almighty sun signs off with flamboyant artistry.
A wink and goodbye kiss.

The sound of rain fascinates.
Instantly the cosmos closes in around me.

Backwards

Flaws.  And the flush of speckled skin. 
My throat closes off and I break.  
Dead men keep breathing.
Mourners heal quickly. 
Eyes open, reset, and we begin.
