Speak To Me

 Snivel,

feel hurt,

broken

and bitter as usual.


Find happiness

in simple substance,

a rat

around the corner

mops up tears.


Weary and woken

to unspoken woes

and worry

of wrongdoings.


Make ELEPHANTS

out of ME!


Send them-

marching DOWN, 

spiraling around

my mapped out mind.


So the power

of the mind

can be so unkind,

when a heart's in doubt-

unable to sort anything out.

Catch A Snag

The infinite zipper, 

a concept of coming together forever. 


Never ending-

meticulous bending,

joining of wire.


The desire to be free

from monotony.


An ominous cloud,

cooling you off on a scorching day. 


Relief with the grief

of a thunder strike,

dawning your need

to recede into the zipper.
