September Poem #19

karma
the endless knot…
oh what tangled webs we weave
deception, avarice and greed
‘twill bite you in the arse

~kat


September Poem #18

crickets
nighttime crooners
fill the darkness with music
but a single cricket’s chirping
in a house…maddening

~kat


September Poem #16

purring
soft murmuring
healing stress; practitioner
of peace, zen master on my chest
reminding me to breathe

~kat


September Poem #15

raining
saturated
storm swells suspended over
beleaguered, battered coastal towns;
trees, shallow roots clinging

~kat

Florence rain has arrived in the mountains of Virginia now. She is expected to linger here for several days. Hunkering down for the weekend with snacks and an endless stream of old movies. 😊


September Poem #14

the calm
serenity
tempest coasting delusion
blue sky lull, sleepy denial
maybe the storm will pass

~kat

It was a beautiful day today. Looming in the back of everyone’s mind was the behemoth raging just off the coast. Florence they call her. Today was the calm before the storm. Is that really a thing? There are websites that discuss the concept. At least for us, during this time of waiting, it is real. Now we hope for the best.
