Merely a bonehead like myself can utter,
"Pardon me..."
For another fleeting life...

Again, another agonizing memory,
Clinging onto me like thorns in my soul.

The fact that your presence cannot be witnessed
It haunts me in whispers...

The poison that was mine, thy lips kissed,
And the pain you endure, myself hath to sow...
Thy departure ...

And once again, another fleeting life...

Whilst the grief settles down once more,
My mind is mentally pounded...
Myself dare saith no more...

For I am mentally absent once again...
Death of a pet. Born on February 2, 2024, and died on May 1, 2024.

Summer, summer tomorrow, comes with expectation
A day doth bring here its heat
She stares from the heavens with electricity
With a breeze lithe and scarce, it walks over the earth

Stately and respectful in her stride
She hides behind clouds, when out of sight
Her beauty tempers the mind and calms the nerve
A weather so delicate, not a degree or ray less or more

But, when comparing her breath
The heavens turn and stare, wondering what despair
Plagues the incomplete soul and a heart so bare
Like moons hidden from her nascent stare

Scorning the cold moon, the torn heart
Looks for the summer, while crying for heaven's arms
As a body everyone is single, as a soul never.

The night tilts as the heat shifts
Drilled and funneled in shafts
The heathen sprawl and pawn
On a tunneled road, all is caught

My city lights lifts, in stoop steeps
Clouds pour out sorrowful hearts
Colorific rhythms ensemble chants
Palpably a wave to awaken saints

Lugubrious, prosaic,tame and lame
Cushioned in dejected cartridges
Ejected from alchemical cartilages
Wrecked from ships, colonies in hives  

Squeezed through the eye of a needle
Dreams of unthinkable hearted thoughts
Blinded by the bagged and oppressed sacks
Hammered and pounded on a narrow middle
Dear Friend Tom, As the night shifts, embrace the shimmer of the stars.
