Deselection, Poetry

Artifice

Artifice

The all now is absolutely in waiting. And it’s a no doubt grating sound in mating
The signal and signature of a wail of reception mixed with the deep resonance of understanding one’s necessary removal.

A fixed tone makes for a harmonic concurrence and echos not in error but in an evidentiary call and response…
in repose on purpose, and just a bit too wise to be needlessly awake!
An I objet.

Toy Tune

Published by r.Douglas

I’m spry yet retired. I reside in the inner city of a major metropolitan area of the United States. I read politics. I watch baseball. I hum along with the tune. I June swoon, and moon the bad poem. Post here, are old and new. Opinions are my very own, except when wrong.

    Philosophically difficult and brave poetry. Emotion trips me up here. Fortunately, the aural joy in “Toy Tune” gives me breath. And I love how the music syncs with the skateboard gif. Quite cool!

    You be cool. And your heart rules. And our days will continue forever. Oh and by the way, stop the snow today and let’s go out and play….at being cultured. You be the bestest. Coda’s buddy.

    Ha! I’ll get right on that snow stoppage—if only! We definitely need a play day in some warmer weather. [BTW: YOU be the bestest! 😉 ]
