The old hospital in the town center
stark and unpainted
Dotted about in the near vicinity
Funeral homes look like pearls
around an elderly lady's neck
at every election cycle the promise
was to build a new Krankenhause
in a rural environment...

16-5-2024Repeating lies

Expect excuses but the reality’s my own
While the fire grows afar let’s sit around a while...

An illusion of inconsistencies

start to
spill.

SacrificeSuch a noble and caring thing to do,
For the sake of the children,

to some without a meaning,
bright the eye of heaven shall shine on a day with no complaining.

Saturday AfternoonFervent redbirds began to croon,
As onyx shadows danced in tune,
Idle afternoon of peacock plumes,
amid greenness and floral fumes.
Saffron sunshine forever resumes,
with memories of pale, pink moon.

under skies of...

Each thread sublime
Mirrors reflect stardust

All principles fled
Eternity soon chimes

An Utter Lack of PantsMy strung-out limbs grow like plants
Head in the clouds, toes with the ants
Branches sprout, leaves strewn about,
Now I’m walkin’ ‘round with an utter lack of pants
My eyes swirl like big lollipops
Cogs and wheels,...
