The Web – A Cherita

a spider’s web

built overnight,

it’s very well splayed

breeding unrest

among those that fly,

troublesome times

A Cherita

mountain dawn

morning dew
the color of twilight

revelry
of birdsongs
fill the coolness

War – Poetics Bold Tribute

…”Quaint and curious war is!”

Sons and daughters one and all
Go forth and live your young lives

As now, leaders who declare war
face each other like jousting knights
The rest of us shall stay home and place bets

Inspired by:

“Yes; quaint and curious war is!
You shoot a fellow down
You’d treat if met where any bar is,
Or help to half-a-crown.”
⁃ Thomas Hardy
from, ‘The Man He Killed’

Slow Dance – Cherita

romance

vinyl spins
on the turntable

we slow dance
in our nakedness
by the warmth of the fire
