In some odd way we are now living out the last years
                                                           ­                          months
                                                          ­                           days
                                                            ­                         hours
                                                           ­                          minutes of our life.
How loudly the clock ticks.

The question :
¿Why me?

merely shows the remnants
of an uncouth faith
a tender hope

for respite

Remember the price you’ll pay
While reading this verse
What each word, from you, has flayed
Unavoidable, detested, passage of time.
NP Nov 2019
Oh...
I am dangerous.
Beware, as I am – Dangerous
A tall man among giants

Proud and conscious
of my immortality

Every second may be stripped away, flayed.
but I
Remain

How closely Joy resembles Life
its transience and good-bye

As the setting of the sun occurs behind the brooding sea
the petals of so withered landscape swiftly reek of Glee,
though as the quaintfilled scent of skin this feeling seems to be
therein sunsets there’s something else than aweful kitsch to see;

When ebbing is the light of day with all delight for night, then
often times one finds the trails Joy left ploughed deeply into the flesh

[Some sweet reminiscence]

For an eternal red is twilights dearest pledge and
Just like joy lies on the edge of endless permanence,

An ephemeral Eternity is then seen.
As when grains of sand tickle
as they trickle
through the
fist

How closely Joy resembles Life
it’s Transience and Good-bye
An attempt to recapture sunsets from the hands of hackneyed quotes and filtered landscapes

There is a centerless void
Hidden under the navel
To which we are forever pulled
In search of __________

                Unending  spi­ral
                Unnerving spiral

This famished vortex
has swallowed them whole
Self; Soul and Meaning

Oh distasteful Charybdis!
I beg you to *****
                      *****
                      *****
                      *****
Me
