Dust Storm
Lifting from the Millewa;
swirling to the sky,
billowed to the heavens,
each particle drifts high.
Closing down the clearness
in an ever thickening rust,
from dry and harrowed farmland,
swirls the Mallee dust....

Beware of Sales
From a store that sold only beds
Came an advert in my email,
50% off everything
This is a closing down sale.

So I bought  a double bed
Taking the assistants advice,
But the delivery van brought a single
50% off the bed, not the price....

Global Warming - Bring It On
GLOBE WARMING    BRING IT ON 


Closing down sales in fur-coat shops
Polar bears amble past Madison Avenue bus
Miami people swim to work

Fry bacon free on sidewalks and building-tops
Rush for sunblock of  4000-plus  
Ice-cream for dessert?  That’s a perk...

Misery
So sweet, and yet so disappointing
Envious, and yet so anti-social
Strict, consequential
Mellow, quiet
Its actions and results are so loud
But its words are oh so silent
Too silent
To silent to even know it's there
Lurking around
Shadowing you
Closing down on its next clueless prey
Helplessly I run from its clutches
So tempting I shift towards its gentle touches
Oh sweet Misery....

Midnight Candle
"Midnight Candle"

The Midnight Candle Lightning On!
Booze and Snooze Grave Away
Restoring Lock and Smith Again
Generating Powerful Sounds A slow

Just Before the Day Breaks
Fire Sighs, Winds Blow, Path Ways
Midnight Darkness! Midnight Gaze
Far Away, Close By Time

Moving Across Pathologically
With Grace and Gentleness of Times Away
The Midnight Candle Moving on
The Midnight Candle Closing Down....

Adrift

Time and space closing down
Shuttering the light.
Where do people go
Whenever that is
 when present becomes past?

The things they carry with them
May just wink out like the embers of a fire at end,
Without any lingering luminescent images.

Or maybe those mirage like images linger in space,
To be carried in the mind’s eye
Of those left behind, until finally fading into the mists of time gone by....

platypus features 
      greasepaint pallor weirdo clown
              red nose big honker 
        outlandish shoes flail around 
         crazy hairdo balding crown 

               eyes evoke pathos
    whitewashed face a haunting frown 
               empty seats again 
          last show in his frilly gown 
         tattered circus closing down

Between Acts
Fall again leaves are being 
Chopped, bagged, and spread
Over the emptied garden
The maples watch in helpless distress as they undress
The gutter mesh guard is re-set
The firewood will be stacked on racks closer to the door
Views are longer, sparser color shades to brown
Nature’s curtain closing down
Act Four is shivering in the wings
Indian Summer pulling strings
Intermission’s  entertainment sings
Harley days of easy riders
Catching time to spend
Rumble round the bend...
