KEYS

Posted on December 20, 2016 by artifiswords

The jangling
Of the keys
A sign that
Help was near
Locked away…
Once out of hope
She knows how
To set him free

PLANNER

Posted on December 20, 2016 by artifiswords

He’s a planner
Not a schemer…
A visionary dreamer
She must be a seer…
She knew him almost
Before he knew himself

GLUE

Posted on October 26, 2016 by artifiswords

It wasn’t glue
Holding them together…
You could call it
Undeserved loyalty…
But it really was
Patience in spite of
Nothing to justify it…
You could call it stupid
But…in kindness
Give him credit…
He held onto hope until
It died in his hands

ACHE

Posted on October 26, 2016 by artifiswords

An ache
Like I never
Knew before…
How do you undo
Years given to
A mistake?
I only know
It’s the biggest job
On my plate

NOT ENOUGH JOY

Posted on October 26, 2016 by artifiswords

Will there ever be
Enough joy
In a world
Backsliding
Into hate
And despair?
When some
So-called leaders
Orchestrate
More of the same

FISH TANK

Posted on October 25, 2016 by artifiswords

The world now
Forces us to live
In a fish tank…
Hardly any privacy
Anymore…and less
All the time…
Too late to become
A digital non-entity…
We’re saddled from birth

With an indelible number

LAND OF PLENTY (OF NOTHING?)

Posted on October 25, 2016 by artifiswords

Standing with the
Fridge door ajar…
Full of jars and packages
But nothing to eat?
You’ve done it too?
No surprise…we’re
Spoiled by plenty…
Plenty of nothing
It seems…spoiling

The American Dream

ON THE BALL?

Posted on October 23, 2016 by artifiswords

On the ball
Would be the
Last thing I’d say…
But there’s no doubt
That saying what he does
Takes a lot of balls
Just to be clear…with him

That isn’t a good thing

DON’T SAY IT

Posted on October 23, 2016 by artifiswords

There’s an old
Tradition…
As a baseball game
Progresses with
Naught but outs…
Don’t mention that
A no-hitter is
Underway…it’s
Sure to be bad luck…
Don’t say it!

DUH!

Posted on October 23, 2016 by artifiswords

Genius?
Oh…no!
Really hasn’t
The slightest clue…
But enough are fooled
So we know what we
Have to do…at least
I do…don’t you?
