Diary of the Falling Dominoes ..." Who will look after us ? "

" Who will look after us ? "    1. 11. 2017








    Its getting too dark               Too dark see 

There abides a fog that entombs a lonely silence

like the peace on a shoreline that will never be 



Genetic seeds sown, unweeded cancer grown tears

An unpicked mango sized tumor, to be reaped like tears of grief

The kind of hidden misery losing love breeds



Like a bullet to a lonely heart that only wanted to be

an unthrown stone within an unknown mazy blackness

that has grown into a mountain too steep to climb



My head is heavy and heart empty bleeds

A river of teardrops coursing beyond this deliverance

a twisted line to some predestined nebulous black seas



Where is the love ?           Is this amazing grace ?

A heart broken no longer runs after love

like  a thirsty  deer to the reflective mirror pool



The silence of this blinding snowfall

embalms the ground of this garden

I’ll leave behind in the parting wake


A bitter sweet symphony unchained

an unsung song released 

adrift in the indifferent breeze



An elusive peace  like  a  crystalline deep river 

will never flow close to me
