Pancakes
If you want to miserable,
Go ahead
But I want pancakes
And right from the pan
No waiting for everyone to come to the table
You sit watching the news
Complaining about politicians of this or that party
THIS MEANS DOOM, You say
Of course it does, That’s is why I voted for them (I whisper to myself)
Would you like pancakes?
We were like soldiers
Marching on
It is time to move on now
On and on and on and on
Night after night
nightmares of Rome
Burning around us
As we moved on
On and on and on and on
Until someone remembered
What we were fighting for
And we moved on
We were friends whose paths crossed
And disappeared in silence
We were poems I never understood
We loved being pretentious
I never really told you how fake I felt
I just wanted the world to be about more than this
I wanted us to be about more than
Images on canvas
Beautiful nonsense
I will remember you as
An acquaintance
That moved away
Resilient bare limbs
Standing watching in silence
As the world spins by
Absent mindedly
Her mind wanders
Across the years
In and out of memories
Regrets and aspirations
To the softest lips
She ever kissed
Just to remember
How easy she was to forget
She thought
It’s not just about the shapes
And curves that meet the eye,
But the inspirations
That meet the Minds eye
As millions of stars
Exploding
across an infinite night sky
Some moments seem
To last forever
Forgetting the Dawn
As you fade into sleep
Millions of stars
Fading into a brand-new day
And waking from this dream
She remembers
The softest lips she ever kissed
And how easy she was to forget
Squirrels must still play
As crows soar through the grey sky
With dancing snowflakes
Two thousand fourteen
In shark infested water
There is no perfect
To new beginnings
Procrastinated for sleep
Awakened in dreams
Forgetful
I wish
I had
Oh …
I did
I wish you had
Oh …
You did
Then we forgot
And …
Summer memories
Out of site and out of mind
Like forgotten friends
Images drifting
Shifting in and out of time
As snow through the fog
The rising tide
