Minutes drag on
Bears are smart to hibernate
Not much to chirp about

Despite the self-doubt that's
encouraged by shouts
of guilt
muted by I-didn't-do-it-ness
The lordess works in mysterious ways.

evening slumbers -
muted by the falling snow,
dusted in quietude,
trees slip peacefully into
the night, blanketed by snow

He once lived an uninspired life
his palette a muted black and white….
until she came and filled his world
with color…
overnight.

A siren's call
Echo's of white fenced bliss
Painted with silence it's ghostly pickets
Allured enchantments
The muted past of her remiss

I do not know?
I tapped the poetry bin
Naught but an empty echo
The stillness of a blank wall
Decorated by a frozen Gecko

Green departs to seek
a more fulfilling role, which
it found in your eyes -
more glorious than trees that
fade (like me) to muted brown

the still muted leaves. . .
soon revelation of homes
secreted away —
the Autumnal sweep, bitter
cold of Winter will reveal

A homeless man
with a cell phone
connected to his pain
Desperation
on his speed dial
—muted inhumane

harvest in his beak
muted excepted for its blush
poised on white pumpkin
winterberry holly fruit
a treat for the midnight crow

Old age
Muted rage
Broke hips
Bitter lips
Happy thoughts
Are Fought
Sunny Days
Turn away
Why lie
Will die
Nursing home
Swallows groan

Slighted from the slightest kindness
Blighted by our bold face blindness
Ablaze she burns
Unfazed she turns
Muted screams molested madness

Heaven muted in solemn storms,
waiting Anxiously, insanity taking hold
abrupt emotion Tenderly butchering stillness, impossible to
control the Emptiness in HATE.

Like a jazz tune holding its own slow note
Quietly falls
Muted steps
along
path

When you’re eat up with stupid,
Duct tape can’t keep you muted.
It won’t fix senseless quips,
But it will muffle your lips.
So, there’s no hope for the dim-witted.

red & white stripes, blue with stars

THE MUTED FALL
I lead against the walls of injustice
I've fallen
As I place my ear on the wall, I hear you calling
What shall a lame deaf mute do
For he too has fallen

An undecided thought
took a stroll
always thought that half of me
wasn't me
Do you sometime feel as if that
muted voice
inside
is hiding something
just beyond your sight

Life without death contains nothing more than death without life, it remains unfulfilled straight from rejected beginnings of ending, a muted mockery of laughter for crying out loud.

Epigram
A colorless day, cast in shades of muted gray
Teardrops falling from a sorrowful sky
Running down the face of His creation
To be wiped away by the fingers of the sun

Smiling, I cross the facade.
Mottled, the evening violets
wane -- into a subtle fusion
of smoothly muted grays.
A thin sheen of water lies
fallow Upon stone cobbles.

grey day's antidote
cold beer muted telly ad
rain sound on the roof
