Short Defoliated Poems

What's gods currency?
What would you do, if there was nothing to do, but find it?
Seems we'd be on an odyssey for a redeemed community
To spruce up the defoliated faces
Cut the noose of ornamental laces
The quest of placing tinder, in lights focal graces 
Go...

With August came hot breeze,
Temps above 110;
Heat, defoliated trees,
Been worse?
Don't know when.
The grass is dead,
No need to mow.
Air so dry,
The Rooster can't crow.
Today a darkened sky,
Splotches, like grey stain.
My recurring thoughts are why?
It does not rain....

sweat on the defoliated landscape

               that had once been his scalp above his nape;

                                      thinks the mirror

                                            is in error,

                believes from the bald truth he can escape !...

Sadness within me is my skald,
Ignorant world, taunting my afterworld,
Why is my soul in this soil pinfold... 

The sky is filled with dark enshroud,
Am dumbstruck, thunderstorms cloud... 

Love is an unloved harken,
The heart in me, a shrunken token... 

Fey reliquary in the sand,
Buffing the defoliated leaves off my land,
She lay her tears on my heartland... 

Miseries of the silenced one...
Tortured hell gone......

fairy wings

can you find fairy wings
in the aftermath ash,
settled like glistening bits
of Tiffany’s glass?
or unicorns in defoliated forests
weeping golden tears 
upon the last blades of grass?
will a geiger counter, still count
the heart beats of giants
fallen to earth?
the pied piper play
to his starving mice
when all of the fields are brittle
burned to a crunch
oh!    what glory will we see
when we eat the mushroom
Alice…...
