Young Apathy
Deep scent of ennui
touches the young
who refuse to see
the beauty around them.
Time reined in the Muses,
put out the flame of the bards,
and extinguished awe of science....

Mental Slippage
Echoes, thoughts thrown off-course
illusive as in "vision blurring"...
ennui, with nothing to reinforce
imagery. Silence disturbed by purring,
odd admixture of buzzing and whirring....

Grab Hold of Life
Life is more than bland existence
Let thy spark not fade away,
Meet ennui with firm resistance
Thank the Lord and seize the day.

Serenity by cessation

No ego borne ennui
In childlike playful spree

New Year's Wishes for You
Warmth in your hearts in spite of the cold
Inspiration like sunshine, bright and bold
Strong faith for the future and unbridled hope
Perseverance, which God grants to help us cope
Ebullience that overcomes winter ennui
Relationships, old and new, conflict free...

Work Ethics Ain'T What They Used To Be
Our youth nowadays is a mystery
Being a boss quite a catastrophe
Instead of hearing SORRY
You get " Hey YOU hired ME "
And back to cell phones to relieve ennui

January 1st
A whole new
Irksome block of monotony
Placed at my door
By night.
Climb up or down as you please
Vacuous and silly I am all agog.
Some crazys have not slept
To herald
My wife, sterner stuff
As usual
Shakes off the ennui
And ignores the banal.

Moon and Blooms
As a rule the room
Is full of ennui and ash
Except when your moon
Peeks behind bits and pieces
Fireflies in moment’s clichés
Moments normally
Insipid tea in old cups
Except when your look
Blooms all over the shadow
Waiting in acute hot sun
