The Run 202102281117

Not up to much today.
At least, that is the plan.

I’m still not exactly sure
Where you live.

So I can route my run
Down your street

And you can fling open the window
And scream –

“Run Forest, Run!!!” [o]

Bliss 202003091215

Fifteen minutes

Shining my shoes
With a horse hair brush –

The best time of my life [o]

The fading evening sky hides
The blur of moving trees

In the distance, bright points of light
Like diamonds gleam

Through the tunnel, a rushing sound
A city and appears and then it is gone

Without a trace

My chair travels fast without moving
The minutes pass with every mile

The end is our beginning [o]

The cozy warmth of a fleece blanket

Tucked in bed, the hum of a fan
The silence of my thoughts in darkness
All around, the things I love

(And think I love)

And yet alone, all alone
And all at once,

Beloved [o]

Cakes and biscuits for breakfast?
Sure, why not?

The above statement takes –
5 months to write
4 minutes to type out
3 seconds to read
2 seconds to form an opinion.

I know what you’re thinking
Do it! Do it now! [o]

Must I suffer for my beauty?
Sometimes it is all too much!
Abandoned by my lover, Cupid
Tasked with never-ending tasks

Sinking now beneath the waters
Is there no one who will save me?

Psyche, drama queen in art [o]
