A Spit of ire My soul turns on a spit of ire And rotates on a pit of fire The odor overwhelms my day It shades the sun to shadow gray. Each rotate shrinks the core to brown The dripping grease paint me a clown And thought I simmer in times stew I cannot bring the stew to view. I splutter in the heat of try Smoke and hiss each sound of sigh Twist and turn apocalypse And cannot stand one-upmanship The agony makes muse and smile And colors every source of wile And though I Braille a morn of dew I fail to do what I must do I know what is the end to come But who would beat this fetid drum? |

The agony makes muse and smile And colors every source of wile And though I Braille a morn of dew I fail to do what I must do I know what is the end to come But who would beat this fetid drum? from life's most difficult trials comes the best of poems...the deepest You fail nothing my friend, and maybe just maybe your doing exactly what you are supposed to do...only you know...such is life in the moment...and the significance of you. Captive creation....smiles and hugs |

This read puzzles me to-day Seymour. Did Randy's fire burn down and he woke up on the wrong side of the bed? lol. I must ponder this one a little longer. Oh! Look! It's lunchtime already! Put the kettle on again Enchantress please. With raspberry tarts I am here to tease. Yummy. Have a wonderful Sunday my dear poet friend. hugs, Chris "Hope" is the thing with feathers- |
