They judge others harshly to make up for what they lack....

Burrowed deep in the beach sand.
Sometimes a sand crab
May get stepped on, they’ll remind
You harshly, watch where you step

From
lake’s front
cliff stands proud
harshly sculpted---
rough

Till
fine grains
tumble down
like pearled beadwork--
smooth

trapping mice,
what to do,
small, alive
irritating
you want to kill them
harshly,
vigorously stomping
make them squeak no more
so they can't shit,
and shit,
and shit
in your space...

Those who dream 
and value Time 
live to see a Dawn.

But doomed into 
the ruins of a Dinosaur
are those that forever
Dilly-Dally.

For theirs is Drowning
and Dropping
Till history judges
them Harshly....

the wind
breathes harshly
against my tired face

it tells me I'm finished but I keep going
on -- plodding, plodding 
onward into its mocking belly

if you're not moving forward in life

You are:
Another forgotten obituary,
I still:
Shed tears at night,
You are:
So harshly missed,
I still:
Think you are at home,
You are:
Not in Charleroi anymore,
I still:
Write you often,
You are:
Always here....

It's like trying to criticize the ground where they stand 
Without understanding how it came to be 
Even dirt on their faces, they could not see

Prince of piers, reader of seers
Feelings unscorced unfelt
Not a part of keen believers
Akin to a hand harshly dealt
No more sorrow within
 into fire mercury melt
Drowned in unknown sin
Into gold we all shall turn
Never again to force nor burn...

Guilt knaws at my stomach,
And worries my heart.
It wraps around my throat
And squeezes harshly,
Stealing the breath 
Right from my lungs.
Unease settles somewhere
Deep in my core,
An aching fear of secrets 
that may not make it
to the grave....

Winds sing harshly, 
And nature gone extinct. 
The earth has softened, 
Though the sky is in a rage. 
A silent echo is monstrous, 
And life cringes for change. 
Harsh words release a beloved temper, 
While the knock sings to the lesser instinct....

We all grieve in our own little way but this was a bit unusual
Fireworks a wife put in her late husband's pockets were really beautiful
A heart-felt display
A loving gesture I'd say
Maybe reacting harshly but they had problems irrefutable...

raindrops falling lightly
tapping against my windshield
raindrops falling harshly
pelting against closed house windows
raindrops playing tricks with my mind
kissing my soft skin
playing peek a boo in my hair
moistening my lips
raindrops falling, falling, stop...

In a sharp world of harsh words
Tenderness has escaped it
I feel like I am surely
Very deflated

A piece of me sits aloft
With no air being left in
I’m no longer inflated
Pierced by the ice pick…

Of the harshly frozen world
