I am doggo
and I bork.
I eat the foods
and I hork.
I eat the hork
and I naps.
Sleepy time...*yawn*
I am the felinoid overseer of this domicile.
I have chosen a canine security officer, his
intelligence is quite low, but he is effective.
There is an avian reconnaissance operative
as well, and I find him to be a tasty morsel.
Though I am clearly superior, I find their
companionship...gratifying.
I am birb
and I tweets.
I make poops
on the streets.
I fly high,
can't see glass.
Drop from perch
bump my ass.
she smiles in the shadows of the dead end street living her rag doll life the only femme fatale of our mannequin town a midnight detective going down the low road a butterfly at the crime scene alone in the evening breeze her night talk full of wallpaper poetry her velvety voice singing the drunken bird songs her troubled mind full of murmurations. I’m so happy I could die lifting her veil in the storm so let’s dream a little.

What A Wonderful, Wandering Woe
Oh, what a word is wyrd! Wrapping within it wraith-like whisperings
Of unfathomable, unimaginable universality, uniting us under
Our common connection, coursing casually through the cosmos,
Our worries and woes writhing and withering with the weight of the Worldsoul.
Wrath wreathes reckless, reasonless revelers, resigned reluctantly, restlessly, to respite.
Souls solemnly shipwrecked, shifting semblances sharing stitled songs, sonorous shells
Of departed, devoted debtors delving divine depths, descending deftly downwards
Towards totality, tension tearing the taut tethers tying them to the Togetherness.
Never breaking, never ending, never

so the hills have become cicadas : swarming
/ sacrificing themselves to fluorescent moons.
a herd of ghost horses stampede / the cul-de-sac /
neon halo / headlights of passerby lead believers out of night.

you say there are only two types of cold: in one
a shadow hangs on your bones like an old ghost /
the other is a color or stillness or both.
watch how the sky bleeds into horizon:
glacierborn / oldgrowth
/ the peaks cry carve a smile from the earth

The Shepherdess, The Meadow and The Sea by Paul-1485, literature
Literature
The Shepherdess, The Meadow and The Sea
Anglicise the meaning my dear friend,
For the Shepherdess blinds my eyes
With her beauty and secret lustre.
Cannot we become all that we dream?
At least try and become all that we can,
In reference to Greek Gods,
And where we stand, or linger
In our nonchalant beings,
In this most modern frame.
Is there still a place in our meadow
For romance I wonder?
And the salty sea rushes and licks the edges of sanity,
Corroding away the cliff and land we stand upon,
As we, unaware, transfixed by the full moon
Shining full and bright above the crashing dark waves,
That echo warnings of the future mistranslations.
(22nd Nov. '18 & Jan. '19)
Curbside Wonders
wander, worsen.
Curtains fall in constant courses.
Chained and shoved
their claim is sane.
The coveted above remain.
The palace blues,
for you they dance.
In colored shoes, they chance a stance.
Chandelier
is faded gray.
Against a chance their trances stray.
A cotton robe,
their trove gone rotten.
Tangos toeing lines forgotten.
Splintered glass.
Stillness pass,
this is the end. At last.
