#NaPoWriMo2018 - Poem 6

4/6/2018

The One In the Window

In certain slants of light, she looks
like that dude from Metallica (in his younger years).
Everything was happening in Hollywood.
This ain’t Kansas anymore; it’s real,
And my favourite ruby shoes
have a broken heel.
I don’t like how it feels.
And nobody wants to
have anything to do
with a girl and her guitar.

It occurs to me I’m in a dead trade.
I can’t find work so I cant get paid.
And it seems to me,
Everybody does it all for free.

And you realize, as you roam,
that there’s no place like home.
But your home is someone else’s couch.
And it’s do, or don’t;
Not a question of won’t

Truth resonates
The universe inspirates.
Failing to find love and happiness;
Falling fully and flailing completely;
It’s all in the rewrites.
Through it all, you gotta keep on keeping on.

Angels Told Me

Divine guidance manifested through music and meditation
Ideas and inspirations
in abundance
in Nature’s Serenity;
Enchanting harmonies
Forgiveness is freedom
Trust time to pass so celebrate successes
Of a creative spirit awakening

Poem #8, NaPoWriMo... "New Horizons (per second)"

4/9/2017

New Horizons (per second)

Like a probe to Uranus,
the last of the gas giants.
Only been visited once
by humanoid technology
and technological spacemen
Oh, my, what a nice asteroid belt!
(Might I interest you in some fuel?)
Like a great blob of pizza dough,
Every 16 seconds, heated more and more,
I'm off-centre and tilted (Story of my life)
A whole new speed of space craft and light;
Up close and personal.

Poem #7, NaPoWriMo

4/9/2017

(Original: February 2017/edit: April 9, 2017)

Old and wise, I'm tired of what life brings.
Seen many things, and suffered the stings.

Thoughts bounce back and forth,
Big Bang inside my brain,
A wild whirling crash course,
Exploding inner peace drain.

Wishing for a black hole to open and obliterate my soul.
A bad mood, like a demon-
You must exercise, until it's free, Man!

Poem #6, NaPoWriMo, named Supernatural

4/8/2017

Poem #6:
Supernatural

About a week ago,
I heard the angels talking.
Your demon ray-gun bullshit
It doesn't work on me.
It's not your fault.
When god is righteous,
You get the hell out of the way.
You should forgive yourself.
Explaining freedom to angels
Is like explaining poetry to fish.

You are not alone,
Is all I'm trying to say.

(Compiled from viewing the TV series, Supernatural)

So, I got some bad news...

... And then I had a bit of a creative tantrum, which was super cathartic. I feel much better, thanks.

NaPoWriMo, Poem 8... Rhyme Play

4/26/2015

No Matter

shall every be destroyed.

Even a cookie survives-

That one time,

as I pitter-pattered

with Your platter of cookies...

Well, I fumbled

And I stumbled

Before I tumbled.

I was troubled

as the pieces doubled, all crumbled and crumpled.

Humbled and puzzled,

Screams muffled

as I struggled with the smuggled, jumbled

treats and platter.

The latter

was flatter as it scattered and splattered,

all battered...

You should have heard the clatter!

I heard the laughter long after this disaster

of JUMBLED MATTER.

NaPoWriMo, Day 25... Missed a couple;)

4/25/2015

In Honour of Earth...

in awe of Her great beauty

but I see it on a screen-

that separates me

from what's real

what I see

makes me scream

stop the insanity!

Let Her be in love & peace
