Lost, baby,
I don't do sadness well enough.
I'm a whore for oblivion,
for being lost
and losing it all.
Lost, little girl,
we all lost.

Bewildered.
I've been drowning in your fountain,
But for now I'll leave well enough alone,

I would like to give you
all my love as a Christmas present
but I think
I couldn't wrap it well enough
as I have never learnt
how to wrap a quality parcel

that you have the ability
to play well enough with the life
like you play chess;
However, before you have taken a hit,
think a little bit,
during that time,
you might realize
that you will never be able
to checkmate it

I hope
you remember yourself
well-enough tonight.
Because we all know
how fireworks are proud,
and loud and glittery
while sadness is illuminating
at its own sky,
somewhere in the
year-long night
living inside you.

I saw him again today
Peering out through the glass
At me as I dared to pass
The house so grave and cold and grey.
I let well enough alone,
Keeping my eyes ahead,
Ignoring that pale white head
As I raced past the house of stone.

It is well enough that people of the nation,
do not understand our banking,
and monetary system,
for if they did, I believe there would be a revolution,
before tomorrow morning.

who didn't even know it.

Time
This single sparrow from your hands
Not enough
To know well enough
Your toes
Alone
Consume a thousand years.
Your eyes
would be the longest looking
Becouse looking I
would find your mouth
And
Journeys there have no end
Only beginnings

It’s a bit cold for a spring day
The way the leaves bud on the trees
Has me transfixed in a sea of green
Pollen falls and I sneeze
It’s almost summertime now
But I sure feel the breeze
Well enough to chill a sunder
Better not sad spring to blunder

So here we now stand evolved and full of life
Turn around and see the wonders of the world
It’s been a long journey, one that at times
You called into question your reason for being
But here you are…
Alive and well enough to close your eyes and inhale.

Never let go
Though the path is crooked,
It is narrowed,
But mind not the thorns oh
Brave and Noble seeker.
Though you're a stranger,
But you shall explore
Well enough to restore
Hope to the dying ones.
Once with a courageous veil
You'll end the wail.

British troops in Ukraine.? Well they are already there.'
Whats starners game? As peace keepers they could be
Hit' that would derail things I'm sure of it.' To much
Resources already have been drained.' Leave well enough
Alone..I would think if any really care in the main.?

Leave me
You complain
I am too slow
I am too fast
Too dumb
Too many shoes
You liked my legs well enough
Before you tasted the fruit
You had sweet words
Now you speak with sour grapes
If I was male, I’d nail you to a stake
Choosing you
My life’s mistake

There has been a breach
Through which slowly bleeds
A bargain rate omniscience
Now I Am as God (or whatever)
Who knows well enough of you to judge
And speak a self-defining truth
As twilight spreads across the Earth
I command you to heed my Word
And index it for #latersearch

Verse
I Think I know My Neighbours Well Enough
Because I know they will not leave me
I also think I know them better than you
And it’s not just for me
So, I will be there even before they need
When enough is enough, you then must stop being so shallow or so tough
Like some we know who are also here
Who just don’t even show a care

Night enfolds me. Darkness is all around
Too late to turn back; it's a shelter I seek
A bed of leaves gathered upon the ground
Shall serve well enough on a night so bleak
Pinch the wick of lantern's flame until it dies
My thoughts will be of you as I close my eyes

My husband ventured out today,
His virus on the wane.
He only took the briefest walk
But didn’t much complain.
For he was thrilled (and so was I)
To see him well enough
To leave his snug cocoon and have
The strength to strut his stuff.
He won’t be running marathons
And this I underscore
Because, in truth, he wasn’t running
Marathons before.

Belief is a war half finished,
Draped in all that is dry
Yet carrying the waterfall of our
tears,
Nailing their resolve to the sky.
We've hummed well enough to
sing corpses alive
Guiding our forces lost in the
fortress inside
Please,
Relearn to not fear laying your
soul on the grass
And live in knowing that with all
that has been said, nothing has.

Lyric
Soften up to me, my darling, you know well enough
That if all the friends would block each other
There will be no friendship, not to mention love
And no life at all, because the people bother
It will be a different spirit over waters
Saying different words no one will hear
And no one will come to touch your shoulders
With “how good my love, to feel you near.”

Everyone stop needing,
can’t you see how I try?
Feels like nothing but stress;
A mask with a wide smile
slow dancing with darkness;
Everyone stop needing!
Popping off those demands,
such an abrasive touch!
It’s driving me insane,
always asking so much;
Everyone stop needing!
Wild goose is what you chase
running down a cyclone;
You’re not there when I ask,
leave well enough alone.

no matter if I'm dying
only matters if you're lying
well enough to believe it
only matters if I'm lying
in your eyes or cheating
only matters if you're flying
over the stars and the rainbow
only matters if I'm lying
pretty useless like a tapeworm
I'm just dying so I'm lying
and I don't have the energy to hide it
but still I'm cheating
cause my heart is beating
and you will always be the champion

Got an amazing friend from across the sea
His moniker is SO which stands for Silent One
A unique bard who hasn't been recognized apart from this site
I am blessed to be a small part of his extraordinary life
Loved and respected by many
Admired for his creative pen and brilliant mind
If I haven't expressed my admiration well enough
It's enough to say I'm honoured to be a part of his world!

always runs from the truth
can’t leave well enough alone
has no desire to build or create
does more harm with a lie than a knife or gun
never admits to having horns and a tail
filled to the brim with subtext
wants others to do the explaining
will stab you in gest
spends a lifetime trying to prove otherwise
finds it feeble to give an apology
will sleep with just about anything
will bury you for free

Starless sky
Two fire-flies
Drunk and high
Waltzed while no one watched.
Eye locked and pandering
they just can't stand it,
to leave well enough alone,
situations facing malevolent half-tones.
Skating on ice
in the form of her name
tracing the ups and downs
we fell through again.
I'm alone
Not really; all gone.
Have crayons to write notes,
scribed on the windshields
next to the morning-jar faces.

"...your rod and your staff, they comfort me." (Ps 23:4)
My day's ritual began with a muffled shuffle to the shower. I stared closely at the mirror for trace of the night, peep at the day ahead. I grabbed a brush, teeth bared in fake grin. A blast! A resonant sound, small still voice—calm rumbling of a distant thunder: Don't boast you know me well enough till you've tasted my rod and my staff.
