Wednesday

sun and moon conspire
forging glow 
raining slow
dripping drops as wind respires
grey in hue
moody like faces of you 
once every darker blues
smiling for shared fires
missing words under hanging birds
luckless and uninspired
arms open and hands free
eyes of undying desire
menacing eagerly 
anxious ribs of me
no sounds required
plainly obvious
obliviously seeking danger
alarms sing like a choir
no care in a careless world
only a free hanging wire

ACTIVITY: Write a lipogram.

Write something, but omit the letter "t" from your results.

we fuel our need for closure

we fuel our need for closure
on a blue surface below us
on words                    we make
shine scream fly sing cry cuss

we're all wonderful
plus we argue blue & fro
you know                    we go where
we recharge                    we share a happening

a happy ending                    a bending
a rainbow of our going & gone
we're on & on & we're full-blown
we will change rise devour fade fiercely

You’re a Zero - Nero


You dare - invade - my domain?!
Escape now - fool! Quick – run!
Here I come – you food
You are dead – cooked grub

Your end is nigh – dumb fool!
I scoff - viewing your ridicule
Alas a final crime – you did
One where you die a placid

Your name shall be bygone
Your life a souvenir
Once like Caesar - Hero
Now like Rome - Zero

lipogram no t 'oday

An end comes
and ends a day
in dark
for worse
broken curse
devoid of sound
a mound of sand
a sea of grass 
impasse 
a fragile ray
disappearing
fearing
un-being
or being
unnamed unheard unspoken
a clearing 
of feeling going nowhere known
no-one opening his eyes
saying words  
of loving lies
lying face down
an end will come
