A Series of Short Poems

 

Sometimes short and very short poems rule the day. At times they are actually written that way and at other times you write something much, much longer but it doesn't really work out so you are left with something that has a couple of good lines in it. And that's okay.
A Couplet


When the circle breaks 

Fast money is not on you


So It Is


So it is

So it will always be

Unless you see

A need 

For change


Water Moves On


To those who know 

There is no doubt

Where the water flows 

There is an out

Slipping through cracks

Moving where it wants

Abusing, 

Absolving,  

Cleansing, 

Before it moves on

Disinterested 

In what has occurred

Finding new sources 

For its merriment

 And

Ultimate pleasure 


Regurgitation

Regurgitation is fine

For birds

But in life 

It shows a lack of creativity

Making one despise

The power of public praise


Pretty Much

Conspiratorial, 

Envious,  

Arbitrary,  

Jealous,  

Petty, 

Boring, 

That pretty much says it all


A Simple Spore

Once 
She sat
But she 
Sits no more
Violently felled
By 
A  
Simple  
Spore
