Rich-Impoverished
Rich- impoverished



                               Multimillionaire
                      In heart miniscule love left
                            is just a damp squib!

Fireworks
In the darkness, extravaganza,
Flaming, blazing drama,
Sky rockets and sparklers,
So spectacular, 
Fireworks in my brain,
Flaming illumination, 
Catherine wheels,
Are you for real?
The pyrotechnics
Was it all a squib?
Crescendo..
To diminuendo...

I float down from clouds above,
Another little death of love........

Bullet Points
What is not worth aiming at
survives to pull a thousand more triggers.

Squib rounds from damp pop-guns
later are recorded as wisdom.

Hacks have a smaller target
on their backs than original thinkers.

No use to wail or gripe,
mud churns
worms irrigate, self-mate,

the odd unique bloom
grows unnoticed
until stumbled upon
or trampled over....

Premium Member Five Fall Fragments
temperatures drop ,daylight hours fly
on the lawn yellow leaves putrefy.

Pampas tinted old gold
bathed in the evening sun-
I siesta in  Fall shadows.

an old orchard wall
russets ready to fall-
pockets bulge with illegal harvest

Fallow deer feed at dawn and dusk,
Treading flat the beechnut husk

dank fog envelops
bonfire night-
the party becomes a
damp squib...
