A Night Without Light

It seems so dark,  darker than usual,
I wonder what it feels like to have a clear sight.
I keep my eyes open wide,
While I  pursue a ray of light.

Ten Years

I wake up
Aroused
As usual.
I sleep alone
I rush

It is the same
Damn

The Flower

She'd always pop back up in the Spring,
for her usual sunny warm fling,
winters slow thaw,
at deaths door,
that Spring dormant awaiting the King.

Premium Member The Artist

Drawing before breakfast
	on a torn envelope,
	coffee and cigarettes at hand,
	the artist’s struggles
	led to the usual questions,
	impossible to answer
	except by drawing.

The End

The end arrives with her usual announcement
Grace and elegance
Dressed in an ice-cold dawn
The end is beautiful
And I smile
As this moment freezes
Under her stare
In time.

From Trump as usual  we did sense,
A lie was formed as false pre-tense;
Time consuming,
While looming;
With much suspense were very tense.
