Ugh

It’s hard
to find
anything anymore
for society
and people
belonging to
it shield
they wear
heavy coats
of suspicion
and mistrust
of misery
and manipulation
they seek
never find
and their
failures just
add layer
upon layer
of desperation

Push

If anything 
rose from
the ashes
of Covid
it’s agenda
and the
embodiment of
push push
push of
opinion and
righteous selfishness
these are
the symptoms
of scarcity
a virus
more deadly
than the
virus itself
for it
doesn’t kill
just cripples
society fabric

Normandy

In Normandy
the seas
are calm
having eighty
years ago
swallowed the
lives of
so many
let us
never forget
the prices
that so
many paid

Know (for Ayomi)

You simply 
cannot find
something if
you don’t
know what
it is
therefore take
the time
to discover
and decide
for not
then everything
be it
sex love
or relationship
becomes disposable
a castoff
something not
someone of
little worth
and even
less value

Depths

It is 
now only
now only
ever now
when I
dip into
and pull
no coax
and seduce
these feelings
to float
to form
splash and
play about
until they
once again
disappear into
the depths
leaving me
to wonder
when if
ever again
