Encompass this latent

drawing of a circle,

then spare a dot.

While your throat

clears thee.

A letter upon a subway

car.

ode to the guilty

i know guilty
i see it in everyone
one count
two counts
i know not the innocent

i know the guilt
i can see it eats you up alive

guilt=guilty
remember that before you see a prison sentence.

some people die because guilt kills them inside. be kind and stay safe **

Dr Peter Lim Sep 24

Simple grace

It's enough grace
to know your proper place

insecurity

i think insecurity
comes from
seeing people
in ourselves
that we never want to see again

With Catchup

Tap between

raindrops, to produce

their sound.

A windowpane that

melts bones.

A tailbone discourteous

to skeletons.

Still thinking about

their last meal.

Scrambled eggs with

catchup.

Dr Peter Lim Sep 24

My testament

Wonderful or special
neither am I
just like you and everyone else
I live, I work and then I die
