without much warning
in that moment
the sky has opened
clouds shed hardened tears
lit by the lightning
dogs lost their bark
darkness
mighty rumbling
sudden silence
peaceful and vast
the storm moves on
taking with it
the tin roof
hiking up the insurance
yet it is known
there is always
silver lining on each cloud
without the roof
the stars now shine
closer to reach
recording of the above poem read by the author
in a split of a second
the world has crumbled
the words we said
now occupy the head
as we parted
time run out
no more excuses
just blown up fuses
racing pulse
pounding heart
forever bitter
not very smart
let’s grow a little
by each lost nerve
rest assured we get
what we deserve
the day we learn
to keep our cool
we become masters
let wisdom rule

baking a bread
it could be said
I am a bit sad
trying to express it
using a few words
no space for tears
feeling discontent
life is jolly good
yet the mind is off
like a rotten apple
swallowed by mistake
as the snake laughs
desire for solitude
cover up of social shyness
love of one’s company
our need to shine
our need to display
our need for a sign
our need to pray
our need to be okay
who said life starts at forty
was delusional
recording of the above poem read by the author
there is so much to do
and nothing gets done
with an overloaded mind
mental fog
lacking structure
step by step
where to start
when all seems
to be important
write two columns
one for things you can do
one you have to get done
sort out the priorities
on the first side
and leave the rest
universe has your back
choose your tasks
trust in its help
and it is so
