Dreamily dreaming; dreamy dreamers

saying "we are redundant" six times a day
it's forty-nine years later and we remain
maniacally crazy about each other

A heavy ear
an empty heart
Breathless voice

--

a Reach
towards Regret,
so Redundant.
never Relieves
the emptiness,
only Reveals
the loneliness.

desperation
overrules Reason.
declination
inhibits Recovery.

Reflecting On Writing

Writing right is less redundant than righting writes..
But in retrospect…
rewriting writes is relevant to writing right.



Inspired by Caroline Cecile D's comment on writing.

Premium Member Difference of Opinions

She is animated, breezy, brisk and fresh.
Brings zing to the party said my cousin Mesh.
Vivacious and zippy, chimed in my cousin Vee.
She was dull, redundant and boring, if you ask me.

Premium Member I Am Redundant

I am redundant
running in circles 
around and around

no one can catch me
no one is trying
because I am redundant

here is my husband
he is redundant too
we circle each other like tigers

Premium Member cleaning does not interest me

I could clean while I listen to TV
I do not
I could wipe the counters
I do not
I could sweep the floor
I do not
cleaning does not interest me
I do not do things that are boring and redundant
me

Trump An Intellectual

Trump An Intellectual

Trump thinks that  he is an intelectual;
After we consulted with a confessional;
Not only repugnant,
Was also redundant,
And found to be absurd and ineffectual.

The Breakup

You detached me from your regard.

You devalued me with your unkindness.

Your unapologetic apathy underscored my uselessness.

But, when you told me to get out, you were redundant.

I was already gone.

Premium Member Shoulds can ruin the coulds

Too many shoulds can ruin the coulds.
Shoulds take my energy,
Wear me out,
Exhaust me
So I concentrate on the coulds.
Letting my husband do the boring redundant shoulds.
Which used to be my domain.

Abundant and Redundant

Abundant and Redundant

Trump's weird words have become abundant;
To poets like you and me they are redundant;
When we saw him;
His wits were dim,
And has adopted the ability to be repugnant.

Fault Lines

Deeper than love,
deeper than hate
the abyss that surrounds
inclement to wait

Fortune redundant,
heads in the clouds
escape not an option
—lost faces surround

(Ronald McDonald House: September, 2021)
Form: Rhyme

The Trap

Its flow an accordion,
to stretch and compress
A double delusion,
old memory suppressed
New moments upon us,
the instant revealed
Time claiming them all
—redundant concealed

Premium Member High Cloined, Arran

Half sunk in peat and sodden moss,
redundant, clutching at the sky.
Rough stones nearby tell of a loss
long past. We look and can but try
to see beyond this relic on the hill
and hear the plaintive echoes still.

The Lion Of Babylon

The only thing
that changes
is perspective

The only thing
envisioned
sight unseen

The only thing
that’s lasting
stays redundant

The only thing 
that lingers
— is a dream

Redundant and Repugnant

Redundant and Repugnant

If what I will say does sounds redundant,
Maybe to many this may sound repugnant;
Walked around repudiating;
Sounding so humiliating;
All of these facts had become a coincident.

Gasping For Air

Gasping for air
Trying to breath
Please afford me my space
Before I draw my last breath
So long 
Farewell
Who loved each other most
May the victor's spoil's boast
Sadly redundant
As we turn separate way's
Numbered are our day's

Redundant Technology

If Academia by the Military, be gifted Internet technology
Then Military replaced with what.  The www.
If Internet was no more use and turned from lamb to mutton
What technology,  do they hold now, those that will press the button.

To Pretend

Becoming irrelevant
  at last to yourself

The choices have narrowed
   the joy seldom felt

The present redundant
  what’s left in the end

The fodder of memory
  —and you to pretend

Winter Gardens

Pre-morning light breaks through the glass gates of the Winter Gardens 
It changes redundant flowers and dormant trees to new,
Brown and grey pathways change to gateways to the real Winter Gardens 
There are colours that natures do not allow.
