Serene

A life of simplicity

Serene

Impressions

From a day lagging

In it’s full connection

I slow my mind

As the wind dies out over the water

To take in the moment

As birds clatter

And water laps

The serene life

Is what I must return to

Pie

The season is upon us

Where the blankets come out

The echos are a little more

Crisp

With a reprieve from

The summer heat

The light becomes a bit

More orange

Than the summer blue

And the winter will roll in

Right over

Me and you

Butter Rabbits

Dancing lightly over the

Fall

Of flowers and trees

Is the butter rabbits

In drinks and

Other things

Such as loafs of bread

Being carried home in a hurry

The dense sensation

Of sweetened desserts

On the minds of those

Who carry them to

Habitual Stereotype

Is it helpful

The book that you clutch

With every name and type

Already generated bust

So that you know

Exactly what to think

In a habitual stereotype

That locks you into a world

That I both don’t know

And can’t understand

Zephyr

I walked the shores

Where my feet fell

Just under the crunch of the

Sand

Stones and mixed

Soil

The water lapped the edge

Of the lake

As I felt the zephyr on my face

I remembered a better time

A time not too long ago

But long enough

To feel it could be letting go

So I breathed in that zephyr

And live to see another

Day

Bliss

Can we rejoice

For another day

Or is that reserved for those

Who have to have it their way

Upon the light of the sun

Over the land that is desperate for

The life force

We retreat in bliss

For yet the world

Can go on

Another day

Retirement

The moment has come

For the retirement

Of the goods and services

That never were provided

To live a hollow life

Guided by lights

Camera

Action

So rather than fight it

Decide it

Might be better to move

On

Then lay in the wake

Of the changing

Waters

Clothes

The defining feature

Of choice

Clothes

Draped over the shoulder

As we walk

We have chosen the clothes

We wear as a

Statement

Some true

Some confusing

But either way

A way of expressing me

To you

Titles

What title shall

I call you

When the sky is grey

And the world is falling apart

How should we approach

The issue of names

When all is broken and

Undone

Is there a reason

For such focus

On the pinpoint of impositions

When the world is sickened

With many terrible

Days
