spread out
your work and play
every year

every second
every day
don’t worry
about voids
and overlaps
for they and you
will pass
anyway

A Cimmerian hue overlaps
The thoughts encroaching my psyche
They seem to harvest labyrinthine symmetries
Of which I covet
It matters not the appositeness
The unidentified may bear
For by passages of valor I transcend

Crowded rooms
filled up doorways,
everybody attempting to rescue
their own personal space -
yet somehow
each overlaps
floods the neighbouring aura
and ignites a spark
of life force
that will grow, enrich
and educate
the mind
inside
the body...

In this day of widespread obesity
THE TALE OF TOM
no!
but why?
he was kind
and so thoughtful
didn’t strut around
like so many I know
all the little ones loved him
i must say though he was so fat
he should have watched himself at mealtimes
just see how he overlaps the platter

A Powerful Tree I know
Outstanding in All its Growth
Great and Mighty Fortress
Overlaps and Grinds
Weighs Upon Greater Gazes
Surrender To No One
Shines Upon All My Troubles
Stands Firm on Sinking Grounds
Washes All the Past, and
Present Worries
What a Hero!
What a Friend!
This person I will Call
Is my One And Only Dad!

Personification
when we enter this world
we face severe distress
our skull overlaps crushing us
we squeeze through our body, fighting to breathe
and after all the struggle ,we cry
not laugh nor talk,but cry
since the beginning this life showed us pain
and it continues to until death takes form
so we continue to fight through
till the very end
just like we did
when we took our first breath

The clock ticks, I wait.
I am not ticking time,
Time ticks me up.
“Time is the king of men”
As I stop at a clot of time,
Growing lost in the present,
As I wait to hear the doctor, my doctor.
Doctor, over the time — overlaps.
I wait for the doctor.
Today, doctor ticks the time.
I don’t know what will he tell?
A news will break,
Will he tell?
YOU ARE BEYOND,
IT’S TOO LATE.
Will I then, tick the time?

I learned to type the proper way
Instead of hunt and peck,
Most often on a manual.
(Electric was high tech.)
But nowadays when texting
I’m pathetic as one comes
For I seem to be incapable
Of writing with my thumbs.
So every message I compose
My pointer finger taps,
The right one only, I should add –
No tangled overlaps.
I marvel when observing
All the mainly younger folk
As they thumb their words so quickly
While I, turtle-like, do poke.

The Rope
"You must be tired by now,
go home and undo your hopes.."
the cracked pen and conscience, spill
dark clouds into the background
of the mind, pathetic fallacy...
The Rope: Pathos,
covers the skin in ink
until the illness overlaps the man,
until emotions overlap reason,
until he disappears into the night,
unbeknownst to the stars,
and even to himself.
For he
"who makes a beast of himself,
gets rid of the pain of being a man".

the picturesque
so
transitory,
yet so
timeless..
doodles
of the eye
liquid light
that
illuminates
the gloom
of the
everyday:
chance
happenings
unbidden
yet..
so worthwhile!
incidents
that become
an allegory
that overlaps
then
separates
to become
gestures
upon the canvass
of
memory
