(NoPoo 214) Papering Over Cracks

When darkness comes
Happiness disappears
Throwing wobblies
Self destruct mode activated
Forgetting collateral damage

Friendahips ruined
Through little misunderstandings
Minute detail lost
Momentary sensorsry shutdown
Preserving brain function

Papering over cracks
Where sanity seeps out
Forgotten reason
Makes it seem childish
Above all else

Hidden inaction
Perpetuates hurt
Intensifying effects
That may result
Rinning away easiest option

lost in the loudness of solitude




It mystifies
marking indelibly
scarring
a stoney heart, stonier

left beating
forgotten beats
loud—
is the echo of silence

tears roll of quietude


where once,
a smile did shine





so loudly.

#NoPoo [156]

I hope you’se didn’t eat all the cake y’cunts

not that I’d eat a load of it anyway
feelin a bit spare tyre-ish
but, enough about me
mere mortal

they say lots of stuff
bout where folk pass to
and I don’t believe much of it

I hope you’re a deer, good fellow
at least til some cunt
shoots a load of shot into you

cos I know there’s not much chance
there’s a forest with someone like you
to dote on it and everything else
with a heartbeat or a petal

you’ll be back again, I’m sure
and I hope you remember enough
about where you’ve been
to tell the people

cos we fkn need a talkin to

Breakfast

warbles of joy
gladness and rejoicing
from the fruit tree outside
why mull on tears
With life full of fears
When the sun is shining
food a-plenty
they sang

having my breakfast
cursing the damn birds

(NoPoo 215) Listen Carefully

please listen carefully
i welcome oblivion
as the sky begins to scream
self impoaed insanity
carries all these hallucinations

permanently depressed being
with only temporary lucid moments
abnormal conditions surface
like timy monsters
you know misery lives company, right?
come join my nightmares

reconnecting echoes lost
never seems so easy
isolation creates darkness
where light cant exist
an infinite sorrow burts forth

Ruse -a senryú



Pot calling kettle
That misdirect— in hopes of
no one noticing






#Nopoo    (#213)

questions for a bully - a senryú



Is it browbeating,
habitual cruelty
or both that's admired?





#Nopoo  (#214)

The perfection of heartbreak (a haiku)


Whimsy in lilac
with hopeful petals streaming
as hearts break perfect

Evening Song

the evening song
heard with wonder
words threaded together
beauty of them
strung together
remembering

thoughts of deathland
indeed is of imagining
I wish
it will be of my dreamland
a small cabin in the woods
of perpetual spring
with autumn leaves
before a lake
with blossoming hyacinths

Supernova Sealed With A Kiss

Close my eyes, heal emotional wounds
When voices can longer hear over the refreshing blue lagoons
Kiss me now as no everlasting tomorrow
Desires you instill as we keenly borrowed
The erratic heartbeats skipping without a cause
Has someone placed an illuminating supernova love on pause

Visage of cosmos floating, yet so far
Beyond the resonances of Jupiter and Mars

Strong arms no longer to hold, console
Sinking feelings, given the breath of live, reasons to abandon still patrol
Hold me tight, just to breathe
Reality of the mind offers no fruit rewards of its guarantees
Embrace me tighter, as you merge your body into me
Stars reaching out to the galaxy, receptive of its echoing lack
A touch escaped, romantic neurons diminished to send the body out of whack

Hushed caresses to my tender skin
Desires implanted deep within, bodies sailing on the soft breeze of the wind
The essence of souls lost in the throne of such a beautiful blend
Ears no longer hear such beautiful tender whispers
No echoes heard from Cupid or the Big Dipper

As we live as we love
A hard force of nature, on the winds of love, slipping without patience into my silken glove

Ardent dances in midnight groove
Feelings igniting passion long overdue
No love, no desire, no celebrated wonders of thrashing
Hearts has lost is cadence as it sadly rehashes

Enrapture of gifts ascending past sky’s infinity
Our pleasure as we weave, sinking, and spinning of its indemnity
Two sides of Supernova’s coin

Soul to soul, body to body, minds become reborn
Born out of ashes of a lover to adorn
Only to be shredded and forever torn
