Today's Love

Monday 7.11

Thunder cut through 

The silent 3.33am

Rain fell breaking the dry

Dream splits and we fall

Into the tissue papered water

Ghosts settle between us

Wearing masks

And red dresses

Wearing red lips

Men who are women

Who long to be men

No familiar faces

Except yours

Stillness between us

Courthouse champagne

And a forgetful woman

Shadows caught between us

You don’t cast darkness

But images are wept

As rain brings the dawn

And broken umbrellas

Hang in the cupboard

How should a human being lead his life? Aristotle

How should a human being lead his life? Aristotle

and by playing with the words in that quote I formed the below

Should a human being 

Lead his life?

                           

                           Being.

A human life

Lead by a human being

                           

                           Being. 

How should a human lead a being?

His life

A human life

                           Being.

His life should lead

How should being lead be a life?

                           

                           Being.

Be a life

And being lead 

Being human

                           

                           Being.

HAIKU

 

Willow weeps downward

A kiss upon water’s edge                       

Drowns the spirit in stifled love

Caged wings fly inward

            Fluttering dreams float downward

The heart craves outward
