somber grey masses
thunder and lightning rolled
quietening the birds

dog breaks wind in sleep
awakens and sniffs the air
then bolts from the room
dog in playful mood
spinning around and around
to catch its own tail
dog sniffing the grass
searching for the perfect spot
to put down a poop

pouted lips waiting
head turned to see something new
result: a missed kiss

Mindful is madness
Mindless mannequins baffle
Steady stream of flies
Trapped in burning light
Painful electrocution
Pesky human plight
Zapping to a crisp
Attracted in blinded faith
Antidote to sin
Greater by design
Most darkful persecution
Guilt that lies within
Cast over water
Departed spirits will fly
Life begins again

About this poem:
Once again I am confounded by constant ressurection of life from one life form recylced into another life form through cylces of death and darkness and life and light spinning and falling like a shooting star or a bug on fire.....whatever existed before will exist again.

Prevailing and Trade Winds blow
Ever engulfing above and below hemisphere split
Amidst mercury now in reform

These few words I write
Are stripped as bare as Winter

Time is running out
Experiencing shipwrecked hope
Prayer is all you need
