Elizabeth Squires
he wasn't a happy chappy
at having to share the one
stage
with two acts which were
more accomplished of
page

how brilliantly they did
spill the writing
ink
each line of the finest
ever quality
mink

of rage he felt on seeing
their pieces of
prose
a palpable anger built
inside his irritated
nose

the cronies launched
an ousting
attest
at the talentless ones
resentful
request

he won but the victory
was an absolute
disgrace
nowadays there's only
his dullness filling the
place

Commuter Poet
When all is lost
And everything that you had
Is gone

When all that is familiar
Is removed
And the sounds of others
Have fallen silent

When the breath of companions
Is stilled
And the list of things
That needed to be done
Is done

All that is left
Is
Oneself

To face the essence of oneself
To sit alone in the silence of oneself
To wonder at the thoughts of oneself
To ask
Why am I here?
Why am I here?
What is my purpose?

To face oneself again and again
And again

And ask oneself
Why?

Only then
Can one

Change
