The Sick Red Carnation

Aug 2022

David R

you wake up in the morn
full of vim and zest
plans and schedules born
before you're fully dressed

then to yer caffeine draughts
to blow the cobwebs away
scent of coffee wafts
as start of every day

and before you know it
all plans have flown away
off they go in orbit
as you're left adrift at bay

A Day In Summery August

Rolling out from blue lotus
off the sky
nymphs in tangerine bright
all colours
tuck into disappearing
rainbow slides.
Ah, fragrance
of the broad daylight
a day in summery August
is still heady
weaving blue butterflies!

Let me fall through these walls
Into my own existence.
Don’t pull me back,
I want to crash into my soul!

Loop

.
          These thoughts
are a haphazard
                 tessellation
of moments,
         sounds
           and scents -

  caught in a
      persistent loop…

         Such it is,
   that they herald
       no known beginning,
and yield
     no foreseeable end.
