Why am I thirsty
the day
after Wednesday

Each day that I’ve met
has
succumbed,
to its fate

A wound on wing will
allow it
to sore

Even forever is, now
out of date

It’s a crime
that chime
and,
mime
should
rhyme

Every season has
ran
out of thyme

The edges keep pushing their
teeth
through the flesh

The flavor of
death
is the best
when it’s fresh

Why is the world gripping
hard
on the wind

Why is the mouth of our
mercy
chagrined

Why is the whole of our
empathy
empty

Why did forgotten deserve
to have
memory

I live in a dream that can
never
come true

Lost in the color
of ocean
and you

And yet another ride upon your poetic waves of fascination. "The Color of U" fits me perfectly!

Excellent work.

I read this last night - and four times since. The flow and message mesmerize me. I like them - the flow, the message, the poem.
