A young Souper was feeling the burn
When his poem count took a downturn
First, he wrote a haiku
Then a monoku too
By deleting some carriage returns
The moon
is a bay leaf
folded among the trees.
It is not.
There is no time
to love one another, the days
smear like wet ink.
It is the time
of the wolf.
We must feed him.
the milestone attained
a benediction bestowed
so in midst of celebrations
bliss drenched soul presence
recognising ephemerality
pulsates in nonchalance
as during a downturn
watching life unfold
Touch
Only this and the skin
Encasing my entire being
Touch
When I thought of the touch
Much I marveled the splendid concern
Touch
You warned me about the downturn
I crave the slack, standstill significance
Touch
Instead I uncovered the plight
There stood a crash rewrite
The touchy turbulence tinting such a rush
Touch

I watched as reason
drained your face,
frowns cracked
to reveal a single tear
buried under the layers
I witnessed as the dye
dripped off the cuff
twin splashes of blue
scarred my cornea’s
I prayed as the colour
drained from your mouth,
as its corners
found the downturn
I cry as you dance
to nightshade,
always believing
the rhythm
would bring you back
and smiling in Technicolour
