Spider & Fly

the sun lit silk threads
a fly buzzes within the
sticky spider web
alert from the vibrations
scurrying towards dinner

Contrarian

08/08/202521/09/2025 C and K WordsLeave a comment

Eating lunch in the park at an odd hour to avoid humans.

While watching the sky and the birds, you would never know that he relished the feeling of discomfort.

Hated by the right and despised by the left, some call him a contrarian, and others curiously independent.

Plant adorned cafe
a serving of rich brownies
expecting results
After three, spoons are funny
No hash, just a lil sugar

Rebellious Eating

beer in the garden
cake for breakfast with coffee
wine in the work mug
all the rules must be broken
cheese and crackers just in case

The Belter

Oh, my beat-up heart
She tests me at every turn
sass on steroids, this one

always bossing me about
while looking at other men
never enough jewels

Oh, but I love her so much
The rare tender moments
I’m the luckiest bloke

Sleeping Child

04/08/202520/09/2025 C and K WordsLeave a comment

Within the grey day of solitude,
they walked through the cemetery.

Carefully walking around the dead,
respectfully contemplative.

An angel carved from stone sits still,
head bowed in the sorrows.

Withstanding the seasons for her,
the sleeping child within.

Grey Memories

The maddening grey
You, conjuring memories
The charm bracelet sways
Lightning strikes the ancient tree
The thundering rain soaks you

Untitled Haiku

She is walking with me
a bad-tempered girl with a scowl
The mirror tells a lie

Dark Mischief

01/08/202520/09/2025 C and K WordsLeave a comment

No heat on at night
the cold crisp covers caress you.

Positioned for sleep
the cat positions herself near your leg.

Waking at three am
the pain of a numb leg and the great urge.

Wobbling in the dark
almost falling into the toilet darkness.

Coming back to bed
The mischief begins
