When sadness showers down
Made from artificial
Silly people clouds
There naught be
An umbrella
Or a #raincoat
Big enough
To cover
Ones heart
From welling up
And sinking
Like a boat
With a broken hull

He has not realized it sooner. He has met a vibrant Luke this morning. They have talked. They have met again this evening. Luke has seemed hollow within. He remembers similar incidents. He sucks the #verve of people around him. Irony is that he himself is always depressed.

thoughts, swept away—

in a waterfall's thundering verve
a cauldron of swirling froth

i inhale, pausing
reflect on the tranquil currents

meandering around rocks
settling in a tranquil sun-dappled pool

distillation of experiences,
we know the work, the art of stillness

silver breath rising —

10/10 morning walk- a shaded waterfall settling in tranquil pool of dappled light

Brave write instance of
strokes, cursive on whispering
leaves, fatigued fingers.
With verve, expressed promises
in the wind. Her life’s oeuvre

The day lost its #verve,
crumpled and ochre,
light leeching the brights,
mollifying the western flurries,
leaving us indifferent and aloof.
We follow the patina
of yesterday's argument,
sipping iced tea,
words tracing the horizon
with sardonic lines,
and longer silences;
longer and still.

The Visitor
The head stood in a tight #raincoat, scouting the students before her gaze landed on Antoni. She took the mic. «Students. Today we will #welcome an important #visitor. You are to take to your #knee and show respect. I will see no #giddiness today.» ms. Hall said, looking out over the morning assembly

«That means,» she continued, «you will not #unearth ungodly things, no #music, and for goodness sake: not another #opium #pageant like last year. This investor will determine if we exist at all next semester, so do behave!»

In the back, Antoni looked slyly at Chase: «This is going to be epic!»
«Yeah, it’ll be #sublime» Chase replied. Their scheming had begun…

#BornBattleReady

At home
Had dinner
Went out
Met some friends
We went for Chinese
Met some more friends
We went for Indian
Yes, you've guessed
Met yet more friends
We went for Italian
Finally got home
Collapse on the sofa
Porked

#BornBattleReady

Everything whispers in its demise
for all things are destined
to be broken
cathedrals collapse
into prayerless dust
the statues of the saints
emit sad, hollow echoes
their halos fading
but beneath the debris
wildflowers still grow
their roots winding
through porked pavements
reclaiming the ruins
I kneel here alone
the scent of flowers
softly circling me
and I finally understand
that being lost and broken
is not always an ending
but an opportunity
for a new life to begin

#BornBattleReady

Last night I dreamt of angels
their wings broken
their feathers snapped like brittle reeds
their halos dimmed
they were falling slowly
not gracefully or intentionally
but like glass, hurled against stone
shattering into pieces
forever broken beyond repair
porked along with the sky
that was filled with cracks of thunder
a dark empty vault
where the stars were bleeding
and the moon hung crooked
I awoke trembling
listening to my own heart
long splintered by a loss
that I can never mend
and yet it was still beating
like defiance
still standing
in the wreckage of a dream

#BornBattleReady

In the middle of the river
where arches, once golden
are now twisted in silence
the ancient bridges
slowly erased by time
the ruinous, rampant rust
devouring their iron bones
I still walk here some days
imagining ghostly pilgrims
travelling slowly across
the frail, porked, portal
broken beyond repair
tracing the fading graffiti
that tell the sad tales
of long-lost lovers
of promises broken
whose hands, once joined
slowly slipped apart
all their hopes and dreams
lost in the current below
