lavish me
in yellow

and orange

don’t be
greedy

let it loose

wash away
my years

make me
feel young

I want to
shine again

I want to
be the sun

rising
everyday

nebulous concepts

He touches my hand

      In another dimension

      Sea nudges the sand

who says haikus can't rhyme?

John Destalo

the final battle

I rode a
nightmare

into the
mountains

to meet my maker

a creature
calling my name

I followed
the deep bellow

an echo of
the ancient past

I knew I
would find

life or death

either way
our war will

finally be settled

Water

You catch life
one tear at a time
to one day
fill an ocean.

I heard you liked short poems, so here's one for you.

cats & dogs

once upon a time
there was a dog named cat
once upon another
a cat named dog

in the one
dogs were always cats
in the other
cats were never dogs

and all the other dogs
and all the other cats
were named
It

Overwhelmed

Sleepless, the day sighs

Night dreams of sleep

Open eyed

Had a lovely busy day today, just had to set these words free ;)

Lava Lamp

You call me an enigma
I say you're a mystery

and like two pieces
of formless wax

we float
pickled in amber light
