Of koans and cones,
but not ice cream
~did cherries jubilee get buried
within a chocolate uprising?~

And in the mudflats and wastelands
many know the word no and comprehend
~but some shall purse their lips anyway~

It isn’t as if the blue skies held it all
The truth...that is
~maybe closer to a footfall
when soured grapes seep bitter whines~


I sit and touch the screen in scream
wondering
~where does the poetry lie?~

I'd love you to post so more of these thoughts and ideas

So much is unsaid and so much could be developed

Please write more

Mare
Bodger?  sometimes much must be left to the imagination, ostensibly feigning innocence


is this write perhaps, a bit too abstruse?
