*hazard of counting time and words
~
stoops to foolhardy pacing
wit-clogs hardly ever silent*
1.
how seconds fall flat on its innocent face;
loss of hands - clock no help at all
as feelings croak in embrace of premature words;
rig a string tight, not long after your first day
2.
you didn’t know that where you were sent
all in good faith
put you plain on a danger-path ….. what sick traps awaited
(and yet, exculpa non-fini)
for, how could you fathom
that trusted hands and friendly eyes
coaxed your trust,
engaged in
what they never should...
*the only sane thing to do
is to live by
the second….the minute….the hour …..
no more
failing which, is
scraping by
on the leniency
of
second chances*

talk about breaking the rules...!
some people do get away with terrible things... 'cos bullies love silence.
well, all things to come round...
Sun-entrance: sepia-stone
1.
There be bright days
And there be brighter days
This, I’s be tellin’ meself
I keeps remindin’ me
Ain’t …. no dark days here
Only in forgotten mem’ry-boxes
Long ago cast in sepia-stone
(But one sudden dust-blow
Can wickedly crumble that erudite-face
And bring ALL that …wriggling back to ****** life)
2.
sure ain’t no fool like an old one
Oh, pore chil’ don’t get it none:
Bendin’ all the rules
don’t mean breakin’ ‘em!
