the bane of my life

cheer up
you
hurt bones

look up
sad eyes

come together
stretch

go deep
into that ocean
of a soul
so long
lost
gone

farewell
half smile

welcome
that heart
between
 my lips

erase

time does not erase

or takes away

or gets rid of

time is only 

a reminder 

of time itself

of this inability

to forget

 forgive

 foresee.

Going Green by the-novice

We shared a yester day

 

 

I’ll put parsley on top

I’ll celebrate you are keen on me

And wonder why the rest don’t

It’s ‘cause I escape

Become invisible

Hate being noticed

For the one I am

Is all that you see

And the so much more

Vanishes with the cinnamon

Again basil will be the taste

And I’ll celebrate

With sushi and rice

That you said

Why is it

The rest don’t.

2013, or...

 

 

...Good...

Another year’s gone

Will all

your wishes come true?

Are you going to

 resolve any of the twelve?

They should be thirteen

instead

It does not seem as if it were

to start

all over again

Feels more like

 a continuity of what

began centuries ago

And

That is lasting

Now

 too long.

...Bad...

Another Mercury Day

 

Tomorrow is

Another Wednesday

In the middle

As any other

Wednesday

And some might bother and

be mad at it

Tomorrow is

the third day of any week

and the 1200^th of our gay game

Flippant, playful

Teasing

Tomorrow I

will have forgotten you

And you’ll be reminding me

there was a day

when we were

active and bouncy

And it happened on

A Wednesday…

I’d say

so volatile and

ephemeral

as any other damned Wed.

Tomorrow

Will be

Just another

 today...- and that's

Good enough.

 

 

[About three hours for 12/12/12...HAPPY Tomorrow

Hoping it'll be a good day to everyone]

Enlightenment by aglaia b

Still here, here still

Times we had

when the grass

was greener

when

looking for

was

finding

Spots showed up

before our smiles

Times we had

when that dark

side of the moon

was

meaningless

and the light

was

brighter

the taste

 much sweeter

Times we had

times we shared

and at them we laughed

now gone

but the applause

we still hear

Still here

Here still

Inspired by listening to Pink Floyd today.

clearing

blue senses awaken

surrounding

a dark soul

it’s 

that hole 

in the sky

widening

while 

the rain shivers

and 

fades away

Joining d'verse tonight

no scented

 roses are kind of lost

gone

with  forgotten words

kisses are loose

too easy to undermine

unable lips

uttering

nonsense chitchats

Mona's rose by Catrin Welz-Stein

near

So soft
so

So gentle
so

my skin
all

and
don't know
how much of

my soul

relieved 

for a second
or two

at the thought of
a bit of

your presence.
