SUNDAY
Today is a special day it is Sunday
The day after Saturday just before Monday
Sabbath sacred day of rest
Mass in the masses Sunday best dressed
Tradition of all traditions does sunshine on Sundays ?
Why's it called Sunday 'caus I see no sun rays
Apparently the First day but more like the last day

A family feast day we all eat togethe...

A Reflection
The man in the mirror
No longer looks like me
His best years are behind him
There's nothing more to see
His daughter is a woman
With family of her own
The years now seem to fade away
Into the bleak unknown

Sometimes I feel like runnin' free
Into the rising sun
A slither of a silhouette

vapid mini Directors spouting “truth”
proving a point to the other side
The class divide is dividing us,
fuelled by media-driven Morgan’s
who needs to create division to thrive
pointless pricks with absent minds
Propaganda piloted, spoon-feeding
Humans walk past Joe the homeless,
humming on their way into work

A New Breath
He flung the rope
over a branch of a tree
And fluttering down
came a few dead leaves
He watched them rest
upon the cold, crisp earth
And cursed his mother
For his wasted birth
This year of pandemic
Had him stripped to the bone
Made him jobless & useless
A bear in his home
Frustration begat anger
And anger begat fear
Unable to provide
For...
