Walking Vibes

Walking for the vibes
neighbours turn away from me
The vibes become mixed
Inverted cross on my tee
grey unbrushed hair on my head

Walking ten feet in nature,
deciding that exertion is overrated –
The neighbours look over.

Taking this waddle inside
to find the coffee plunger unclean –
The sponge is too much.

Water runs into the kettle,
the electricity switch provides vibes –
My cup is ready to receive.

the vibrant colours of the sky
several moods from sunrise to sunset

we watch the way clouds move
the coming of a storm brings excitement

you do not find joy in the sky
seeing no beauty through cataract eyes

The splendour of a sunrise
as Summer turns to Autumn.

We look to the quiet hills
and breathe in the morning air.

In our hearts, the rain falls low,
grieving for the unknown kids.

Their imagined grey faces,
shells of so many futures.

a distant glowing
an enchanted house nestled
within the old trees
a breeze moves the Tanzaku
Fireflies light the Furin way

The absence of leaves
the quiet city streets of
Nature’s dark absence

The moon finds a space
He walks by rows of closed shops
of midnight Melbourne

A plain tree lingers
passion fleeting on King Street
He feels emptiness

The flower cutting day
Living blooms are separated from life
Dying for the lovers

No flowers from my love
Your love leaves the flowers to live on their stems
Living love everyday

Within the dimly lit summer lounge room
I catch a glimpse of a frazzled hot witch

She has the look of unspoken potions
a level wild stare from the heathen glass

Fed up with the toxic washing machine
ready to cast a spell with the kettle

Recovering from a hellish hot flush
friends for a little while with the steel fridge

Touching the wispy fluff muff on her head
sad tones take her heart to the coffee cup

A gratitude vibe from the dirt within
no need to turn the sour bitches into toads

a playful shadow
intertwining and chasing
glimpsing a tail

this endless summer
Aloe Vera soothes the skin
The kettle screams, ” Tea! “
rolling on and off the lounge
napping while watching Netflix
