Brainy Brevity

So, brain injury,
A poem of brevity,
This is all I have to say.
We are all today,
Dain bramaged in some way,
Their labels are not you,
It could be them next too!    (29/12/2018)

Premium Member Subtle and Unkind

and so my injury 
of the mind
keeps me subtle
and unkind
but I walk on
from this fire
bring from this world
my desire
and let me
stare at death
and not give up
until my final breath

Insult Added To Injury and Perjury

Trump was an insult added to injury,
And person who  committed perjury;
A total insult,
Is final result,
And his imbecilic brain needs surgery.

Lying In Wait

Ice on the fence wire …
insult to injury
The barb when it’s deadly
pointed and sharp
A night rain has frozen
and hidden the danger
Awaiting intruders
—that come in the dark
