No Words…Except… (A Cherita)

silence

but for the cacophony
of thoughts and perfidious prayers

feigned outrage fading into the abyss of
yesterday’s news; blood soaked hands of
cowards scrawling, “must build a wall…”

~kat~

I titled this no words…but I am a poet, damn it, and words are the only thing I have to give to this troubled world. I rue the day when even the poets become silent. Peace my friends. Tell someone you love, that you do…love them.


Decisions Decisions ~A Cherita

a decision

should be an easy choice
between black or white, right or wrong

but black is grey and white is
crisp linen, honeymilk, winter orchard,
swiss coffee, and chantilly lace

Congress in Session ~A Cherita

congress in session

a trio of cowbirds perch aloft, screaming
on skeletal limbs of a wintering elm

surveying the work of more diligent
nesters while scheming a plan
to evict them come spring

Office Aria Cherita

afternoon sun

warm glowing orb
grey skies blushed blue

the honey-soaked earth glimmering…
entranced am I by the droning rhythm
of QWERTY keys on a deadline

Cherita 11 and a half

beware the quick nap

the nod, the doze
seeking REM on the fly

only to wake hours later
a sweaty blob in a puddle of drool
REM interrupted

This is the moderated version of today’s mind cloud. I thought better of posting my initial Cherita after sleeping on it a brief bit. You are spared. Today’s entry could have been a vile drip from the recesses of my brain…

only the finest

expletives
rip from my sharpe tongue

giving a damn often leads to losing one’s shit
but it is the exquisitely satisfying fucking, fucked, flying fuck
that illustrates my delicate emotions magnificently

oops, did I just ‘write’ that…out loud?!!!

It’s been one of those days…
