Goodbye
 Apr 2021 Arthur Blank

His ears have turned a deafening read
They can't listen any longer
You could phone it all in but alas wouldn't matter
The help you need doesn't come from a bottle not a refrigerator door
What you need is so much more
Heed the words of concern  and care all around you
Until you decide to get real and do the very best you can with help and support
Tough love
Goodbye, so long, Farewell

new day
 Apr 2021 Arthur Blank
Elbee
the moon is a sickle
the sky a pastel palette
i slowly awake as dawn
gives a yawn
and a sleepy greeting

pillow soft, and warm
fragments of a dream
flicker in my mind
as I try to cling on to their meaning,

i can hear a distant sound
strangely familiar, a
subtle disturbance
becoming ever more present,
pressING
STRESSing
alarm! clock! rrrrringing

dr     a     g         g      i       ng
me out of the dream i was living in

and i am once again
born
unto
this new day
are you awake?

Poets and writers
Lovers and dreamers
Soul searching magicians
Special and original
Quiet and cerebral
They don't want to be like you
Sometimes they are still looking for who they are
Fitting isn't in their journey
Maybe not even standing out
The right stuff
My rainbow has shades of blue
What about you?

Look;

When did relationships
Get defined
By a read receipt?
Will we
Now
Only measure intimacy
By a tweet?

What do we have left,
Why can’t we
Go back
To laughter
In a diner seat
I watch life float by
like a dragonfly
riding the breeze.
I need to seize the
current like a
brick of gold,
soar ever upward,
above the swamps,
and dead lilies.
Transcendent light blinds
temporarily, but it's
necessary for new sight,
and stronger wings.
Life is misty dream

reality is deception

wrong is perception
In all things simple

there's mystery beyond sight

what's real is inside
