The Jester Laughs
The ‘Deceivers Of Time
  Masquerade Ball’

Invitees file past

Yesterday in drag,
  Tomorrow disguised

Today—the Present’s mask

Memories hide
  in the shadows of hope

All wishes dancing fast

Until the Jester laughs
  as the final waltz ends

Deception to the last

(Villanova Pennsylvania: April, 2019)...

Premium Member New Years Old Wishes
I wished once more
and once again - until
greed became guilt and
guilt became shame.

Who, pray tell, is the arbiter 
of my insignificance -
the keeper of my
   contemplations...

Does my conscience bear its weight
upon the souls of others?

Petty impertinences ... that
pile one upon another, until
they're no longer petty -
instead, a pity party with
no invitees nor RSVP's,
just the echoes of
   yesteryear's resolutions......

Premium Member Contrasting Baby Showers
Baby shower for popular Jodie
Fifty-six presents, games, prizes, 
Lots of laughter, thirty-two co-workers in attendance
Hilarity rings out bringing in two more co-workers

Two weeks later
Same company
Same invitees.
Different mom-of-honor.

Baby shower for shy Pam.
Five gifts, three co-workers show up.
Two games, difficult to play with only three.
Lots of left over cake. Feelings of embarrassment.
Sad comparison for Pam had been to Jodie's shower...
