SAME SONG, DIFFERENT VERSE

take some intuitive action
grind into a fine powder
suck it up through nose
the world will be yours
with a sharp slap
a new day awakens
pushing up a sleepy sun
starting a new day
inviting children to play
soft into light of day
branches gently sway
sparrows busy at play

while running off with his mouth,
swallowed his teeth, his tongue,
and all those defaming words
falling from his antisocial mouth,
letting him know he is not the boss. 




leader seeking leadership
position.
rates negotiable.
will lead for candy. 
ice cream works.


what is stoic, that we need
stand back, staring blankly,
incoherently at distant nothing,
while time decides our fate?

it is time, then. time is stoic.
certainly not heroic.


this photo came from Pinterest with a color invert.
if you have not tried Pinterest, you should.
the color invert came from Photo Explosion, version 5.
