peregrine 
circling closer
attaining 
perigee  

apology 
reaching rising
missing
apogee

we are separated
by a million years
of evolution 
and muddied memory

yet in perspective
isolated disconnected 
we are not so so different.

droning delinquent
doling discombobulated
dodecaphonic
  dodecasyllabic
    dodecahedrons

fuzzified faces
full of phonetics
farcically singing

doo-dah dodo
doodling poems
doodad doofus 
doowopping doozies

dollies and daises
drooping in dumpsters

finally done. 
 

broken brittle bits branching
 up 
    across 
           over 
counter top and floor

swift silent surface sweeping
 across
       down
            under
cleaning out this mess

endless cycle of pretending chaos
might be tamed into order

dish washer
    laundry machine
          vacuum cleaner
humming weekend jazz and blues

Monday is waiting. 

elixir 
inspiration 
burning in my throat
one ounce golden liquid
single shot savoured
pouring another
cheers

Morning gurgles coffee brewing
one dark drip by drip by drop
slow agony arising 
creaking bedsprings
crackling bones

unbending 
I shuffle
towards destiny
barefoot pilgrimage
towards warm lure of coffee
across cold bathroom floor

inexorable 
rhythm of ritualistic relief
dribbling my daily salvation.
