A Mayoralty vote — The key to the city

king of hearts & queen of diamonds

 

power moves a few steps ahead 

 

A king take you and make you a queen

 

checkerboard floors

 

masonic mosaic pavement 

 

white columns

 

the oval office 

 

A piece of printer paper covered in black ink

 

blotter sheets

 

this office chairs circular turn is for looking around your cubicle at these four walls

 

rehabbed

reformed drug dealers

in the corner

 

digestion of information 

is not defined by being able to regurgitate it

 

my blunted appetite

the hunger games

I’m watching my weight

netflix and chill

left overs taken out

then put back and I refrigerate it again

 

presentable

glasses fogged

the quintessential silver plated spoon

polished off

 

hang on …

moment of silence

I tilt my head to the side

in focus… hoping that my hat doesn’t slide off

and use my hand as a guide 

the director’s viewfinder

 

A silent film a mime in black and white

 

ball and chain

 

taped it off at the right angles

tied up a bucket like a wrecking ball and flung paint on the wall

 

clay pots encased in makeshift paper mâché to protect and prevent against breakage

 

the serenade of a black swan’s song

-a musing

ballet 

halved hearts in a beautiful display

arms “en haut” in the fifth position 

 

backlit with blacklight 

puppeteering 

using my own two hands and a tube sock

 

late night

date night

last call for drinks

closing time

diners with an open sign

watching the sun rise

 

staring and blanking on pages

 

the illusion of choice

 

pen or pencil

 

right and wrong 

 

it’s not just black and white but grey 

 

A matter of 

 

dark N’ light

the darkness enlightened

fire and brimstone

ashes to ashes

lava glasses

obsidian 

 

cyclical biblical predictions

signs that say you are here

doomsayers pray in Jesus’ name

prophets wishing for change

praises in exchange for saving lives

god bless your soul

never sold out

 

cynicism

at its core

 

an otherworldly underworld

and it’s earthly riches 

 

A business venture take this

A briefcase stuffed with money

business men walk past and tip their hat

 

nickel two dollar bills and golden coinage

 

count it out at the counter

and check if it isn’t counterfeited

 

they take down trees and make houses out of them

everyone needs eight hours of sleep to work overtime at your 9 to 5 sacrificing free time

 

agriculture

&

climate change

 

nothing better than

california weather

rain or shine

it’s always spooky season 

won a first place ribbon for the biggest sized prized pumpkin

and after scattered around a thousand seeds with the greatest genes 

 

the anima and animus

 

life’s essence

 

captured in the last name of

a fresh potpourri

 

oxygen and water

the firmament 

germination & panspermia

A seed of life, germ

or flower and fruit of life

the harvest

and fall of man

it was eve and… adam
