in rubbish bins
we hide our sins
press down the lid
keep it well hid
oh, what would they say
those silent bins
if they could speak
of
our
sins
(for mara’s poetry 101 rehab – rubbish)

false paths and blind alleys

there really is just one
way
and it is right in front of
you

“i was enveloped in numbness, and absence of feeling so deep the bottom was lost from view” ― haruki murakami, the wind-up bird chronicle
enveloped in pain
by something that knows
no name
don't give it house room
turn up the
volume
and just
dance

the early bird
catches the worm
the early truck
worms its way
through
the
crud
(for wordpress weekly photo challenge – early bird)
perhaps, the only way to float
to be, truly afloat
is to let slip the anchor
the shackles and rancour
break the chains that bind
the locks inside our mind
and be
afloat
(for wordpress weekly photo challenge – afloat)
afloat on belgianstreets
afloat on belgradestreets
