Final Destination

Spinning top doesnt stop
Nor does the pendulum on the clock
Sticks and stones on brittle bones
In the end its pointless what you own
Scrimp and save, still a slave 
Nothing follows to the grave
Sweet surrender, heavens tender
One life passes, another rendered

Alone

Sitting with a lap full of tears
Asking the air for help
The blubbering sobs that scrimp and save for recognition
Help me please 
but the nothingness holds its breadth
twisting my agony 
in its tortured game of hide and never find
Somebody please help me
but the silence amplifies my fear
Alone

The Night

The Night looms over 

                                     The bed , stars twattle moon scrimp

                                                You lay eggs of love
 
                                           In my crevice and cleavage
         
                                        Warmth that can open the door

Her wings, like leaves, have fallen limp. His arms are armed to carry her. Christ’s sacrifice - vice did not scrimp. Her wings like leaves have fallen limp. Angel was brave - she was no wimp. On heaven’s bough, dry bones will stir. Her wings like leaves have fallen limp. His arms are armed to carry her. 10/4/2022

Marie Catwonette said “let them eat cake”
She has no concept for goodness sake
That some cats scrimp and claw and fight
For alley scraps, which is their right.

Marie Catwonette was born with a golden spoon
In a warm bed of feathers, against an autumn moon
She dines on tuna fish sandwiches and such.
Wondering not about about others who don’t have much.
