Diamante Iii

Enemy
                           hostile foe
                    hating, harming, loathing
                War, Armageddon, Peace, Amity
                 loving, giving, understanding
                         warm supportable
                             Friend

Horizons

Squeeze me
   senseless
in
this life
of unfair outcomes
where
   rhyme and
   reason
have
no supportable
   support
when
the sun dawns
   in the east
and I languish
   forever
behind
