she is on leave on advance
cuckoo greets my pen

The words around me
trying to catch attention....
for a place in poem

eagerly they wait
who will be the luckiest....
a tough selection

I love all of them
thus fail to pick a single....
poetry on leave

I am done with your s
I don't want to hear anything that you say
From now on leave me the f alone
Jack a
S
Good riddance
You are nothing but a bunch of s
And I am tired of dealing with you
From now on don't call
Don't come 
Don't even bother
Cause I am through with You
Done done done overly done

    Hurling himself at his work
      passion-surpassing mission

    Setting aside sleep for nights on end
      fire growing with every line penned

But I see through it. I am tough; 

Lend a hand but never draw blood;
Sometimes you’ve got to pick yourself....

God took a vacation
when time had run out
Rethinking his opus
replanning devout

His Angels in limbo
the devil on leave
Heaven a sublet
sin now reprieved 

Faith worn and tattered
the bible debunked
Crusades a bad memory
the Grail marked as junk

He orders a cocktail
the waitress comes back
A napkin — her number
salvation highjacked
