let’s stop this lunacy
simplify, that’s the key
live life, let other’s be, no regrets

For Jane’s Daily Florescence Challenge. Work has been particularly grueling today. No frills; no pretty pictures. I did manage to cough this poem out during my grub and go, desktop lunch break. Writing is what keeps me sane after all. Tomorrow is another day. 🙂
a familiar tune
songbirds at dawn, mourning doves
sweet melancholy

it is a party
when paint chips drop to the beat
of feet boogieing

i’m warming to the gray
of these damp, dreary days
perfect for inside play and nap time

For Jane’s Daily Florescent Poem Challenge. Another gray rainy day here in the valley. 🙂
Genius
i see things
things no one else can see
and i hear voices, audible, clear
as clear as i am speaking to you this moment
‘they have medication,’ you whisper
to silence the voices.’
if you knew
what it is like to be
just a tad twisted, you’d want it too
this superpower…to plunge into the abyss
to emerge free, illuminated
having slept with the muse
her kisses
sweet as honey, boiling
singeing you from your core to your skin
through your veins, from beating heart, excruciating,
electricity’s spark pulsating
to finger tips, burning
write it down
it takes madness, a touch,
to see the world as I do…listen
can you hear the rose petals laughing, leaves trembling?
oh, nothing compares to lunacy
keep your medication
leave me be.
