he takes a break
blue sky and kids playing sweeten
his sad heart today

 the feint memory
 of the scent of your cologne
 you left too soon

Vois Sur Ton Chemin

Shadorma

their voices
are precious and pure
angelic
innocents
corrupt them then pay the price
in the fires of hell

Wordle # 203 - MLMM

everything is about money
it's the central force to success in life
determines respect from others
business alliances called marriage
and the entree into influential circles

he was shattered when his lover
ended their relationship
t'was merely an illusion
cri de coeur was not given consideration
even his rhetoric noted for its masterful brevity and finesse
could not save him when he was deemed 'not suitable'

there was no empathy for his meagre funds
he was obviously in the 'not doing well' catalogue
a nostrum to be avoided

 

the continuing struggle
God's word versus mammon's rule
ongoing battle

Sunday's Whirligig

This week's words "A Short History of Silence" by Jane Yeh ;

bread smile promise eaves wrapped rock
kiss porch candles doorbell braid sleep

 

they fell asleep
to the twittering of starlings in the eaves
they lay on the carpet
covered in bon bon wrappings and bread crumbs
smiling at each other
kissing each other
making promises to braid each other's hair
reassuring each other their relationship was rock solid
they were awoken
by the sound of footsteps on the porch
the doorbell rang
busted

a moral compass
hindrance to success 
amorality rules

desperation manque resolve falter weigh wring
decisions clench red tape stress state of emergency unknown

a manque unknown
weighing up unresolved decisions
acting out of desperation
faltering at every turn
stressed
clenched teeth
wringing of hands
just a modern day man
caught up in red tape
of the state of emergency
called 21st century life
