Short Sinkholes Poems

with gas prices soaring
I’m no longer mooring

I’m becoming my parents
without twenty-five cents

where I live use to be mines
sinkholes appear with no fines

just another day in PA
no sinkholes here so I’ll play...

The waves that break the shore
know no more than the sea, as
earth is taken with rocks broken
free, lost in the violent currents 
and sinkholes of time. 
      Here, life is taken
and brought to it's darkest hour
drowning, sand and water choke
surrounding sailors on the sea-bound 
voyage....

Been thinkin about them sinkholes
They seem to pop up everywhere
(or is it pop down?)
well, either way they scare

Brings to mind the ending times
some folks like to talk about,
claiming to be on the right side of,
boy, they like to shout!

Maybe the big guy is just practicing
maybe he’s just trying to find
the most dramatic way of all
to impress the “left behind”...

Assembling letters.
Creating Information.
Climbing a unnatural,
Structure from my perception.

But, is it mine?
For this structure rebels,
Creating walls,
To block my letter flow.
Creating sinkholes of doubt.

Is this assembly of words,
Perceptive or inane?
Does it freshen minds like, 
Vegetation in the rain?

Or does it reveal,
Furrows of words.
That veer off in error,
As I guide my pen,
Seeing only with,
The eyes of my vanity...

eclipse an errant eon
inhale discordant ions
exhale insectile icons

disarm misfiring memes
take umbrage under a titanic umbrella
recede from seething red-holes in sinkholes

just so you know…
Helga and Zohar orbit the Moon
a harsh mistress giggles indifferently
a cold cosmos says nothing
you are (not) what you think (you are)

forbid fallacious words
forget wordy fallacies
forgo fatuous wormholes

FYI, it’s Awesome
FWIW, it's Perfect
TBH, it’s FUBAR...

If you are one of the innocent
may I be one of the 1st to forewarn
you of this

The path or road of woe you currently
tread along 

Immediately is full of danger and
is not so much full of bumps but
sinkholes

Waiting ever patiently to snap you up
and trap you helplessly inside

So mind your head maybe perhaps
even wear or pack a helmet 
 
Just incase because if you are indeed
innocent

You cannot or fail to spot the pitfalls

Roads and paths behold...
