ANGST
Words
to strip the paint
of the walls
In anger
I have come to this
Life amongst ruins
And old age
No comfort at all.

MY WIFE
I find
comfort there
in the warmth
of her back
in the soft
inner glow
of her dreams
as she peacefully
sleeps.
|
A LOVELORNE STATE
Another dream
to add
to the growing pile
gathering dust
the golden sunflowers
in all
their aching for the sun
mown to waste.

|
BROKEN
Seeps up
a capillary action
bodes
a sense of failure
that whatever
I have
will break.
|
THE STATE OF PLAY
A smattering
of half truths
and prejudices
allays
whatever decency
was left.
