on life's ugly, jagged edge;
yet with gracefulness and beauty,
she leaps out from the ledge.

Our lost feelings, I reset;
Upset, our trust, I regret...

Not a random skip.

Rather, it dropped correctly.

Was neater than other lines.

Irony of My Story

How ironic is my sad story
After enabling their glory
Finding my errors and folly
Is what they now seek in fury
Zenith this is in daggers gory

Flinch

School yard
bullies
made you flinch

One day they
will grow up
to gain mid-sections
stand over grease pits

Life is ironic.

the seat of death finally rests
in ironic drape, ropes hang

Black Garlic

I wish I could eat black garlic
Its so paradoxical
something axiomatic 
eating sweetly caramelised
like an ironic joke
or a thwarted after dinner speech

Fool For Love

foolish are the men who write of love
if experience is lacking

Opposites

The emptiness can be suffocating.
The happiness can be depressing.
The victory can be defeating.
The longing can be fulfilling.
You ask me if life is ironic?
Is it ever.
