JUST...A SLICE OF NICE...WITHIN THE HUMDRUM OF VICE



By and by

The world and it’s passersby


On a Sunday seat

Beside the fading bus

Humming crowds


I ruminate on last minutes music




The rain is volatile; today


It washes nothing on which it falls

The hungry walls

The scream and calls


All fade with

The last minutes music




My journey halts

And jerks in progression


The humming crowd now buzzes


The angry bee now swells

And stings and sings and rings


Out of the cerebral valves




The party moves along

Prancing up to its jittery spots


The ground shakes in despondent sighs

The bee now hums in numbing cries


I tilt the hourglass upside down


The bee is now fleeing out of town




The rain turns green with envy

Hangs on thirsty boughs


The rain sits orphaned on the pavement


The rain now reeks of empty souls


The rain now sings of tired wins


The rain is burning on the pavement of sins!
