Ma petit fripon

Death rattle
Reminiscent of an uprising of crickets ready to battle
Stare at a puffed updiamond heart
Drumming inside an empty cage. Birds ripped apart.
Gargoyle stares ignored.
Folk bumble about unaware what is in store for us all- eventually.
The breathe of Hades-
Lingers then makes a dash for scant flesh and bones.
Meat is not this gods instrument. Lust causes call for more drones
Sponge, moisten parched parted lips
Raven signals the ire of its whips
The ones who don’t loose it in bedlam excite
Death.
Invites all loved ones to rally round
Stands by door. Stands back.Admires its ownpower.
A moment to savour for a while more.
Every door closed, each breath cloys
Begs for enough fare to cross the distance to embrace elysium air.
Today everyone shall know how close we are to parting from brown soil
Lamb,hatched chickens,babies born in Cumbersome air.
the cycle must complete before we can emerge reborn
Death is inevitable as necessary as life is to the Cumbaya
of springs first show of petal.
When you look at the beginning of this new dawn
Know that when you stand back in awe
It is because you have felt the chill of winters soul depart
Shed a tear for the snowman who brought our youth so much joy.
Appreciate death. Stare it in the face
The sun chants
count in rosary beads
tomorrow never dies.
Trying to type something while listening and watching my grandmother dying.
Rasp
Gasp
I support the assisted dying law. This is inhumane.
A selfish farce.
Happy mothers day
Wherever you go
Wherever you roam
I hope that it is a place as magnificent as earths revellers make it out to be

Yes, my grandpa had dementia. 😦 It is difficult and sad to him not being here or our loved ones. I miss my mother in law too. My wife cries everyday and I cry with her knowing what we went through. 😦

Are there not people open minded where you live at? That’s sad. I know exactly how you feel. Question for you: If you had to move to a different country or place within the country where would you like to move too?
Question: Are there any open mic poetry events happening where you live in the area?

There are. I’ve just been through a rough time and it’s had a huge impact on my mental health. I don’t give up. I’m stronger for carrying on. Yeah there are. I’ve just been too busy working on my Masters, getting through my divorce and making sure my daughter is well. :)I’d love to live in New Orleans. Or become a nomad and travel the the world :). What about you? If you could live anywhere in this Universe -Where would you choose?

I’m so sorry you’ve been going through a rough time. You have friends here and I am here for you if you need to talk.
Let me know when you get your Masters degree. I’m so proud of you. 🙂
New Orleans. Awesome! I hear its quite nice over there and the weather and music scene if amazing.
I’d like to live in Italy or Canada. Both seem like very calm and great places to live and experience different cultures.
Sometimes If I had a superhero powers I’d like to teleport to ‘Mars’ or ‘Saturn’. hahahaha!!! They both seem quite interesting and see what kind of sea creatures still exist.
