Summer melts

Frigid monolith

splintering into shards,

crystalline beauty

sculpted,

immense fortress

concealing granite landscape,

violently rebuild

turbid scars.

Cycles

vibrantly weathered

decrepit beasts

revolve around

hub of neglect

desolately lively

wearily surrender

spinning petrified

circles of despair.

Travel

Reflectively challenge

tomorrow’s destination;

lonely tides

quietly sink or

float;

bygone ships,

silent and still,

anchor the ocean

bravely serene.

Random ponderings

assiduously serene

concrete highway

uniquely shadowed

city traffic

dangerous views

dark light

punctuate existence

daily.

Household chores

Defiantly compliant,

solidly callous;

dutifully guard

enemy expectations.

Impressive training,

responsibly protective;

contemplate never-ending

prison within.

Fences

Wire’s silhouette

peacefully shadows

evening flight,

yesterday’s damage

sinks with

sunset.

Hurt ignored

being vigilant

whilst mesmerized by

night sky.

Black and White

Reminisce about love

captured perfect image,

rewind the clock

as treasured memories fade.

Darkroom inspiring,

thoughtfully accept:

the camera does

 lie.
