Darkness
It breeds in my chest
Suffocating
The light
It's hard
Suffering every ragged breath
Knowing
You're gone

a ragged woman
shivers and begs in the street -
revellers throw up
written 20th December for Constance's Winter senryu contest
Enclosed by ragged
wooden fence, yellow apples
have fallen into
grasses where children once played
and laughter no longer sounds.
We drained rivers and raised the tide
Why panic? Just run and hide
With pained shivers and ragged pride
Cry Havoc! The sun has died
gnarled old bones creak
with each ragged wind-blown breath
lifeless fingers reach

blue hush spreads
over open fields~
cedar breath,
distant cows,
sun breaking through ragged clouds,
sky rinsed clean again.
Like looking in a mirror,
and being shown not fresh youth
but ragged age, lost dreams---
but good for the soul it is
I'm sure...mea culpa,
my bad
matted furball fluff
ears ragged, tail disheveled
shaved to summer 'do
now look so skinny -
slick, girly, all clean and white
hardly know it's you
Laugh at this grey town,
Dust lies thick; ragged trees
Streets lost—prairie seas
Unsoftened majesty
Wide streets end—wide earth begins
Sun sets; full moon-rise
Since I've been born.
Just a peasant girl,
Not worth diamonds or pearls.
Born with the sheep
Have to sleep in the big dung heap.
Used and worn,
Ragged and torn.
Form:
shall i compare you to a summer's night
with lost thrill
like ragged wood
you drift from beneath me
yet i do not drown in sorrow,
but remain afloat
Rider comin' up behind me
Ragged ear pony shows message is important
As he draws alongside
I
indicate food in my saddlebag
hand across the reins
and
jump
Robin - A Didactic Cinquain
Robin
Ragged, perky
Splashing, bouncing, singing
Ever so jolly

You whispered.
And ragged butterflies bled into the earth,
Grasshoppers cut through clouds,
And in mounds, roses grinned their jagged teeth
Quietly tucked in satin.
Her look begged a thousand begs,
Such that i could not reach
Her as she trawled the stoney beach,
For ragged drowned things,
Such that i could not hear
Her cold water screech.
The blue ocean sea,
Surges as you breathe,
Waves then follow,
Curling their ragged top lip,
Rolling pebbles with their heels.
(c) 2015 PJ Bayliss
pseudo-expression's
of ragged diamonds
a fugazi sans brilliance,
shiner midst vague skies
in the optical jags of
practical indifference
Soul of Love
It is ragged now--
My soul of love.
Tattered and torn--
My soul of love.
Your thorny words
Blind me.
Deep scars
Adorn me,
But it has endured--
My soul of love.
Birds were very
aggressive today
There is a ragged loud
screeching swooping Hawk
Outside always
Protecting his territory
Scarring the little gentle songbirds away
pain
ragged
sharp searing
hollow empty
gone
gone
waiting
horrid fear
mad memory
wake
sun
dream light
burgeoning
halleluiah
born
Rags Before Riches
They ragged on me when I was rich;
Had been in rags digging a ditch;
Now in my own tower;
Riches down on shower,
And only God knows my each glitch.
Jim Horn
Today was a ragged book that no one remembers
Alone on a dusty shelf
Patiently waiting to share all of the beautiful secrets
Written on brittle pages
And in the margin
Willy's hair looked like a ragged old mop
His loving wife told him, 'Go get it cropped!'
He sat down in the chair
Yawned, 'I've got hair to spare'
Willy woke up with a shiny bald top
Two hats lost in a desert felt so much dread
For unable to walk, they had to hop instead
Soon with a ragged rim
One hat cried, "It looks dim!"
The other said, "Wait, and I'll go on ahead!"
