I live in a vacant world
A place where nobody’s home
Knock on the door, see who’s there
No one will answer

When love goes away
There is so much of life it robs
They nothing left to say
But to listen to the echos of heart throbs

On the tall table
Resides a small Christmas tree
With a Santa hat
When his eyes open to show
The vacant stare of plastic

At the end of my rainbow,
I see a vacant space
That makes me realise
The colours were illusion
And dreams were in vain.

blue moon
standing
alone
in
a vacant parking lot
when
the
streetlamps
are buzzing like fireflies
on the 4th of July

On a vacant field
A red fox meditates
A hawk circles
A squirrel rolls the dice
A school bus passes
An old man

The boy just lay there
eyes dulled, vacant stare
Needles spread all about
another sprout, its life snuffed out

vacant building burns
fire reaches up to sky
so hot steel frame melts
old brick structure collapses
people say it's about time

Cloak and Bragger/senryu
the syllable count
piled up on the vacant beach
cloaked in mystery

Vacant
Of thoughts
Imploding
Cannibalistic
Feeding on past lives
Losing self-consciousness
A state of oblivion
Transforming

hunger gnaws haplessly
harvestless, stark, earthen womb
sparse amniotic fluid
vacant calcified corpses
emphysemic ether blooms

Bright blue summer skies,
Lush forests and mountain air,
Pleasantries of life,
Yet I need you, else they are
Vacant experiences

Vacant eyes
Rough hands
Mother's weeping
Water raging
Soul sleeping
Angels grasping
Earth unholy
Glass breaking
Horns blaring

Vacant Souls
Empty spaces
Shall pay
Their rent
When debts
Are due
To live
Inside this
Handsome grave
That death
Prepares for you

A grocery shelf in Soup Creek
Has been vacant throughout the week
With Pinkerton care
Now Vegemite's there
Tom's living on bubble & squeak?

Vacant eye, Weary foot
Broken hand, Distant smile
Banish thee forgone vestiges
That almost rhymes with Three Stooges
Doesn't it?

Ebullient expressions!
Filled the vacant heart
In sombre skies a star shone bright
Whiff of baking cake !

Endeavors of granger,
spit on the wall,
exits to nowhere,
uptown and all,
empty, vacant, all alone,
chewing gum on the telephone.

Vacant bloodshot eyes
Stare at one spot on the wall
Feeding tubes and scrubs
I should let him die
Mercy killers dropped the ball
So I pull the plug

• My day be so fine
• Then boom! A thunderstorm
• I found a nearby college and they let me stay
• They even allowed me in a vacant dorm

Without time
wonder stops
Questions flounder
barren crops
Without time
motion falls
Beginnings vacant
—endings stalled

Vacant eyes
Stare into space
An empty mind
In an unknown place
Eyes once so aware
A mind once so bright
Now in uncharted land
Disengaged and taken flight

We're getting deep.
Speaking thoughts with vacant eyes;
Intertwined between the sheets.
I can't help myself.
Caress your tenderness;
Envelope yourself in mine.

empty shell on golden sands

My computer's away
So, too, my Muse
'Tis sad but true
Wish 'twere a Ruse
Hope they'll be back
Pray they'll return
So can be penned
'Ode to a Vacant Urn'
