Poems
Dec 2017
Bombs away
Moving twice as fast to catch up with the past,
but making no headway at all.
Standing still will do me.
thoughts of a tree
but
even trees fall
eventually.
On Sunday I pray.
The church bells have rung
I am hoisted and hung by my
own petard,
'Hamlet; always thus, hard
to understand?
If I slow down I
go down,
to sink or to surface?
to swallow my fate or
to steal one more kiss?
it's always about this in the end.
