Some new poetry guys,would love to know what you think...a wee bit aprehensive as before,but you gotta do what you gotta do ^_^


a Deaths' story

and my poor skeletons in my closet are getting neglected,they being ignored
shame,must be dusty and bored
now;for the skeletons that hide under clothes in the streets
and driving in the cars in my lane;are
much
more
interesting

this assessing has brought the following to my attention:
so ,oblivious,to the deaths that will die within them,they are
so, unaware of the boneyards around them,they are

and the years,
the years that have and shall be
hold layers of em,
laying beneath them

so,i know
i am of thise ice-white structures too
only difference is,death let me see now ,how,they are

Death befriended me at a young age
and although he's just busy
being free,
many think him strange

when alone,he'd sit beside me
and with tragic tales
at my bedside try delight me;

i soonafter learned his darkness
quickly
and only on a once-in-a-lifetime basis
was instantly accepted
in the
mortal surrender and submission academy.

i am lucky,for only i'm living
uneventful days,that don't suddenly betray

and only do i see all things
that they hold
once matter
through empty eyes
which once took place in a story,Death already once told.









[her prayer beads]


Lady,on her knees
hands held together
with diamond ring glinting
between her beads

soft are her hands holding care
soft sounds the voice whispering out her prayers

Marble-Mary,receives her stare
moistened eyes,that shine
pleas
under the lights

whilst the space between airs
a plume of smoke which whisps
her words
to great heights
formed by her painted lips
dissolving away
into the cold church lines

no shifting,offers more silence to the still
and a spec of roof-dust,falls down
to her tied brown hair
in an interval,where she faces a deep frown

tears drip and fall to the floor
she knows her beads,her fingers don't falter

everything of her
shows she remembers all

then,at the first echoe of her Amen,
her prayer beads broke
and rolled all over
falling apart, playfully
running around her vulnerably poised despair.
