The Heart of Darkness

Posted by 2garrabrants

My son, if the moon

could talk to the sun, what do

you think she would say?

~

“You light up my life,

give me hope to carry on,

and you fill my nights with song.”

Only Then

Posted by 2garrabrants

If the proof is in

the pudding, is it fifty,

or sixty, or older still?

~

At whatever age

we are, the test of any

pudding comes with the eating.

Peircing Gaze and Razor Pen

What draws a poet

to look both at and beyond

the ordinary?

~

Longing deep enough

to strip away the surface;

endless search for hidden truth.

Elective Matters

Posted by 2garrabrants

0

Is the problem with

running, knowing when to start

or, more likely, when to quit?

~

To run or not to

run lies at the very heart 

of this elective matter.

A Two Headed Dragon

Posted by 2garrabrants

0

When temptation rears

its seductive head, how do

we go about keeping ours?

~

Relax. All’s not lost.

That ugly, hungry, head might

be creation’s crown instead.

Burned Out

Posted by 2garrabrants

0

What is one to do

when the universe calls for

steam but all the wood is burnt?

~

This is what happens

when the universe calls and

we and the wood are burned out.

Ways and Means

Posted by 2garrabrants

0

Which is easier:

to go with the flow or nod

and appear to know?

~

Neither the dead fish

nor the bobble-headed doll

are finding much wisdom.

Simply True

Posted by 2garrabrants

0

Is there anything

simpler than wanting ease

that’s harder to get?

~

Wanting is simple;

getting hardly ever is –

a simple, uneasy truth.

Simple Gifts

Posted by 2garrabrants

0

When simplicity

is not so simple, why not

go for multiplicity?

 ~

Simplicity is

simple! You simply have to

labor for its creation.

Eyes To See

Posted by 2garrabrants

0

Does the cult of fame

serve more as an indictment

of the famous or of us?

~

Blind worship cannot

serve either the worshiped or

the worshiper well.
