MIDNIGHT POETRY – ‘You Are Fat’

I am fat
Because I love food
More than myself

MIDNIGHT POETRY – ‘Uncovered’

jelly mouse pad
under my wrist
life always has
a magic twist

straight up
into the source
align with the
hidden force

once we do see
what is there
we tend to realize
awareness is rare

jumpy thoughts
inside the head
breath of oxygen
dries words unsaid

camouflaged as safety
buried in the skin
trigger with a button
released from within

full of nothingness
motionless still mind
flow of connection
one of a kind

one with all life
in the same breath
until we reunite
connected in death

strip the ego
of its crown
the deeper truth
will come around

bare

Wind changed to breeze
All big bright ideas
Shaved into freeze

What could be worse
To travel not too far
On a wooden horse

Staring at the screen
Numbed by the system
Whip up the cream

Away from the mass
Pretending to live a life
Tucked away in grass

Many a day seldom a night
Tinned pelicans
Too heavy for a flight

In the backyard
Barbie on front lawn
House paid by card

Credit or debit
Visa the new Master
Love it and dread it

Quality of sleep
Half lost night
Rabbit hole too deep

Vivid imagery dreams
After a few shots
Only silence screams

Beep beep
Deafness of sound
Deep sleep

Impecable with words
Diplomats on the screen
Doing the right thing
Seemingly a good idea

Charity of rolled out drugs
Given freely like lollies
No time to feed the mouse
The dragon has escaped

Off the charts statistics
Feeding fearful minds
Vulnerable when frightened
Gullible to accept all said

Crosses from a cemetery
Filling up town square
Who can see through the veil
When confronted with death

Dimmed lights in the mental fog
Get that air filter on the face
Plexiglass to avoid human contact
No touch or even scratch

Without question smother your hands
With those toxic chemicals in a tube
Washing is not necessary any more
Politely obey rules made to save you

Early onset of bonkers
Sanity not sanitation
