Short Sequentially Poems

Shallow sands spill,
Sharp like silver.
Several strong soldiers stand
Sequentially like steel.
Suffer so short like strangers.
So soon , so shallow, so still.
Sorry standards slyly stroke;
Send six, seven sterling swans,
Seamless, storied, swallowed.
Seas sail sanctimoniously
Severed like the war itself....

Significance of Forty


Forty, a number that equates to 14,600 days,
Life begins at forty, as some folks say!
Forty winks of sleep, is that really enough,
To keep your head from feeling quite rough!
Forty, has letters sequentially placed in alphabetical order.

I run 
far away-
No one can see -
It’s a curse I’ve suppressed my whole life-
Some sort of therapy 
letting go-
Leaving -
Somewhere to wonderland-
I fight my mind-
My heart always loses
And I retreat
I long for the days which are obsolete-
And then I bury my head in the dirt-
Feelings emerge-
I see sub sequentially-
It’s all the tree-
Of life-
Branches fall
You have to live
Or risk to lose it all...

to rain on someone's 
parade ~ is spoil ruin someone's
fun joy happiness

saving for rainy
days ~ are when good turned bad and
you're ready for it

raincheck ~ simplify's
life scheduled prupose arranged
sequentially yours

charge it to the dust 
and let the rain settle it
 ~ just pay or get out

come in out of the 
rain ~ it's a losing battle
wake up to the facts

it’s raining pitchforks
British to rain stair rods ~ is
to rain heavily...
