left behind

the little things of yonder past

reminiscent of the memories that last

the flicker of smiles and winds that blew

of faces distant yet brings warmth anew

the mistakes made with carefree abandon

ah the present laughs with jolly derison

every moment forged in a neuron evanescent

looking back at recollections convenient

collective amnesia will never delete

the pain the joy and everything replete

with the blank spaces in time and beneath.

White Rocks On a Grey Sky

Like a guardian of the landscape they stand
Towering up the concrete inferno
they lie in peace, frozen in time
solace to the tiring gaze of the admirer.
In orange hue the sky in agony
subservient to the gargantuan glory

The soul's warmth is all but seen
The ice deceives the sadness within
Ambition itself bows down in shame
All of life in a freeze frame.
