DOZING, a poem

 

Leaking from my aura

energy puddles at my feet

leaving my unwieldy body

struggling to stay awake

 

Dozing marks my days,

waking marks my nights

Dozing is so pleasurable,

waking is exasperating

A suggestion try my novel, BEN CONNOLLY in the PARIS COMMUNE, on Kindle

ROMANCE

 

Romance is the sauce,

Love is the substance

Together they make

two lives worth living

 

Lingering like a seed,

bursting into glory

when two bodies are joined

in carnal connection

TYRANNY

 

Doubters, Rejecters, Deniers

stumbling angrily through life,

weighed down by disbelief

What a sad, sad milieu

 

Like a malignant beacon

guiding them to tyranny,

Donald towers atop

a mountain of his lies

 

Discard the winner,

replace the elected

with the selfish loser

to rule forever

CELEBRATION or SORROW, a poem

 

A child is born

opening the world

to possibilities

as a new spreader of joy

or a beast of anxiety

 

Each of us grows

in our own way,

starting with so much

or enduring little,

going where life carries us

 

Success comes in pieces,

perhaps even moments,

a reflection of our lives,

traveling the road we chose

to celebration or sorrow
