They Cry

In cushioned, padded beds
They cry
Or when hard on the dusty streets
They lie

Naked, covered, in between,
Little difference have I seen,
But I know, a day complete
Is one that’s spent with happy feet.


Sink In

Sink in with a sigh
But dare not move left or right:
A cloud on a cliff


Time Lost

See the plane go by
Flying at the speed of time
Lost, found – left behind


Crossed Fingers

Electricity,
Running and skipping through veins:
A frightening thrill.


Hurry Up & Wait

Preparations made,
Probabilities weighed,
Plans set –
One question remaining:
Is it tomorrow yet?


Bad Customer Service

Planting frustration
Nurturing and tending it
Until it blossoms.


Willpower Spent

Willpower spent,
A page unfurled:
Hours lost
In another world.


Brighter Than Sunlight

A soft, gentle touch:
A warm beacon to the soul –
Brighter than sunlight


Transmission Complete

Words said specifically
To shape meaning
Reshaped by ears
By minds – changed
Redefined

Transmission complete
Communication failed

New words attempted,
Reshaped once more –
Still reformed,
Re-envisioned
Lost

Game over.


Blurred Focus

The world spins and blurs
Inside this hot and cold chill:
A shield to break through
