Weeping Imperfections

Form

Mass

Drooping

Heaviness

Weeping bodies age

Stretched elongated wrinkled form

Distorted hound dog faces as Youth's beauty fades

Eventually we return to the ground as water evaporates to dust

Catharsis

Vile

Dart

Piercing

Hindsight Thoughts

Bring Anguish and Grief

Remove this Vile Thing from my brain

Memories flow out with arterial bleeding

Flushed out with unconstipated relief as catharsis regains hold on reality

Shear the Beard

There once was a woman who feared

her man would not shear his beard

and so for fun

she got her gun

and it quickly disappeared!

Whisper In My Mind

There is a whisper in my mind that tempts me to fear....

....as death grips its silent hold

.....and governments slide on their lies

There is a whisper in my mind that tells me to flee....

....as locusts munch us into famine

....and the earth quakes with premonition

There is a whisper in my mind that trains me to follow....

...as whispy markets crash

...and  panicked buyers hoard

Oh rage RAGE against this exponential storm!

For its ever etched trickle,

moves with ominous pace,

ever faster,

collecting inexorably

into a raging waterfall
