It’s a quarter to three..
No, no, no!
It’s four in the morning, the end of December..
No, no, no!
Life is a song, you came along…
Sigh .
Thump
Thump
Thump
I kick the back of the seat
Like a child.
Not really.
But in my mind
I’m starting to rock back and forth.
Sort of,
Not really.
But want to.
I’m all alone in this!
Nobody feels the way
I do!
Well that isn’t exactly
True
Now is it?
Such a familiar tune.
I wonder what I can worry about
Now?
It’s 2am
Why not think about the thank you notes you never wrote
As a child?
Since you’ve got a theme going.
Bogart in Casablanca:
“There are certain sections of New York City, Major, I wouldn’t advise you to try and invade.”
Would be worse for the Taliban to come across MS-13, or some of those
Mavericks in the Appalachia.
No, no – yes it works!
But let’s get back to torturing yourself,
That’s so much more fun!
A lost loves voice echoing across
The ocean.
Words you are sure you’ve misunderstood and want to
Rectify
At three in the morning,
Not at noon.
Oh hell, roll over and count sheep…rainbow colored sheep..
If it isn’t the neighbors cat, sirens of the
City,
Sciatica, booze or allergies,
Something can always wake you so make
The waking dream
A
Good
One
That other stuff solves
Nothing.
You’ve traced those owl moon musings with tones of night clouds and star lit humour. Your poetic insomnia rings familiar muffled bells in me. I have missed your words – welcome back…
As always, thank you for your encouragement. I’ve been writing but not posting. The criticism mouse has been lounging in my brain. I need a fumigator.
This particular mouse needs not a fumigator but a friendly piece of cheese! Given this it will most likely return to its black hole in the universe…
… we all know that feeling, although A.E.H. put it much more succinctly than I ever could…
When the bells justle in the tower
The hollow night amid,
Then on my tongue the taste is sour
Of all I ever did
in a similar vein, there’s this:
