Of Pedigrees and Ambitions

There is a serious conspiracy
They want me out of the aristocracy
Born a plebeian, I aspire to be a ruler
They cannot stand seeing my cup, any fuller

They come for my henchmen first 
Then whet, for my blood, their thirst
I am going down, think they, without a fight 
Remember my day will come, keep me in sight

Dangling Dandelion Muse

Dandelion puff clouds
tickle the air with their flossy flights.
Other weeds cannot fly
they are deeply rooted, their seeds
flop low.
Landscapers grind the ground grimly,
mowers grapple and growl
but the low gravity and the fluffy,
the wind-walking dandelions
sneeze up their fuzziness
and care not
as they ride the sky, their
high-flown wispy pedigrees
waving goodbye.

October 30/2024 Miracle Man With age came the realization, that most good times lay in my past. Often these become a temporary fixation, and I cling to these both hard and fast. My want to do useful things has remained, but ability no longer shows its face. My mobility today is now restrained, and I dream of life in a better place. Desire and Ability are two horses with different pedigrees. Tom
