Premium Member Melancholy Melody

tenuous strands 
lithely tethering 
the soul to reality... 
strummed unevenly 
by life 

sharp notes 
compose  
a subtle dirge 
of mournful 
ambivalence

Premium Member This Morning

This morning feels bit chilly
It’s about time to go
It doesn’t seem too silly
I’m used to wind and snow
I shuffle down the high street
I’m crossing the old square 
It’s slippery, I watch my feet
Don’t want to stumble there
The tiles are laid unevenly
It might be too abrupt
If I fall down, conceivably
Won’t bother to get up

Rotting Masked

How Much Longer Will We
Sacrifice JUSTICE for MERCY
With the likes of 
Our Dee Pee Bee's (Domestic Purposes Benefits)
Before we realize it
Undermines OUR morality
Insidiously insinuating itself in
To legislation landscaped unevenly
As if handouts are 'free'.

"Who DECIDES WHO IS NEEDY?"
Should be the question asked.
Why do we ignore
Embedded in the core
The rot mercy masked?

In the Shadow of 100 Summers

As sandy clouds coalesce Stardust pulses through the rampant current And I know not the story Of fragments washed ashore Of paltry particles filling the gaps Of golden grains compacted underfoot As ghosts that once imprinted the coast That have long-since been considered Time passes unevenly Left in a concealed crevice under the pier to be forgotten Untouched for four hundred seasons

One Pound Fifty

sun tanned unevenly, foxed
grimy fingers caress bruising
pounded by day's narration
churlish in onyx, was its hint
over feathered combs, see, 
of flicked, creased pages
buried, stained words
were never read
while cold rooms grow colder
an author's sweat for nothing
stemmed the reader's keen
though skimmed at best
and your dilated pupils
captured out-of-breath palates
so I travelled second hand
yesterday, for just over a quid


Ordinary: An Extraordinary Thrill

The blaring, deafening diesel
Horn warned its imminent approach
To the major intersection
Of town with four cacophonies:
Each longer than the preceding
One as its screeching wheels clamored
Across the unevenly seamed
Cold tracks causing each set of wheels
To rhythmically sound their unique
Click-clack beat as the weathered cars
Swayed side to side in a seeming
Endless queue of commodities.
Far off in the distance is heard
The faint four as it rolled westward.

Labyrinthine

Laboring through the thoughts in my brain
Always keeps me from the sleep I desire.
Breathing unevenly, my body flails from left to
Right, working myself through the troubled maze.
Is my son doing well at college?
Now where did I put my glasses?
Think we will ever conquer COVID?
Hope my aunt will survive her surgery.
Is my mom getting enough company?
Nodding off, just as my alarm begins to charm,
Ending another night of twisting and turning through my labyrinthine mind.

Sunlit Moon

Age 5 . 
Threw sticks at the sunlit patched sphere of a darkening blue.
Can I break the hanging ballon?

Instant  raw atmosphere
  Scattering moment. 
    On the black skyline.
      Whitness beam , Now unevenly line spilled 
       Numerous sparkle , Sharp Triangles doomed silently 
          Mass disappeared for a second of eternity 
              Entire ground.  Unfeltable
                 Unbelieved brittle fall .. 

The day that the moon broke. 
Trully unforgettable.
