Uniformly unimpressed



Stretching on this one
WordPress lacks a bit
of creative sparks for
Daily prompts, getting
Bored out of my mind
Uniformly uninspired
outfit discussions of
Clothes, and generic
Topics without form
meaning, motivation
I’m on Facebook, there I’ll be able to communicate with people more directly, and also have more writing updates, beyond daily musings and light bits of poetry.

Risky business



Spiritual request
Let go, the ghost
Religion / Politics
Similar sentiments
Better to chat among
Less ghastly topics
Than risk poltergeist
Conversation starters

Daily maintenance



Self care, daily maintenance
Drives opportunity, to provide
Exercise maybe, always move
Sedentary lifestyle, slow death
Garden style diet, fresh, whole
Processing destroys quality
Social interaction preservation
Longevity in dialogue, shared
Basic recipe, simple program
Healthy quality long lived life

Time wasted



Time wasted, unproductive spend
Unearned, shared, never given
Internet garbage, forgotten scrolls
Cheap laughs, dopamine stimulated
Feet up, drink in hand, sun above
Wind blows empty thoughts away
Mind unfurled, thoughts blossom
Rewind creative productive spend
I’m on Facebook, there I’ll be able to communicate with people more directly, and also have more writing updates, beyond daily musings and light bits of poetry.

Grocer’s reflection



Memory lane, nostalgia unwrapped
Tasty treat, personal ties revealed
Grandpa’s favorite wafer cookie
Faded memory, cigarette smoke
Family barbecue, off brand links
Beer battered, legacy seared
History trails off, grocery aisles
Edible tethers, caloric reflection

Unwritten



Struggling this morning.
Short answer to the prompt, my favorite historical figures are the undocumented, nameless people lost to history.
The pyramid builders who called in sick, and now they are a note on a tablet. How did he tell the foreman? Send his kid, it isn’t like they can send the boss a text message.
The wife who started a successful brewery out of her kitchen that did so well her husband took over the business. Did she curse him while he paraded around like it was his idea and he was the smart guy? I’ve got this sweetie… while she rolled her eyes. Recommendation is this great book, A Woman’s Place is in the Brewhouse A Forgotten History.
Or the first person to ride a horse. To be the crazy person looking at them and running around, to not just say, yeah maybe. But who said, “Hold my beer.” That person changed human history.

Crushing



First Crush
Youthful delight
Trim refreshing
Sweetly canned
Orange bubbles
Sipping soda
Summer heat
Chilled defeat

Explore perspectives



Global travel, or beyond
Expedition, adventure
Eat local food, local beer
Share stories, write more
Cross borders, boundaries
Alternative perspectives
International citizenry
Life examined, well lived
Walls and borders limits
Exploration expands

Failed exorcism



How to address the
elephant in the room
Stalking like a ghost
Shadow won’t let go
It’s will imposed upon
Overwhelming needs
Intrusive thoughts
Individual attachment
Failed exorcisms
Complete possession
Permanently affixed
Welded within myself
I’m on Facebook, there I’ll be able to communicate with people more directly, and also have more writing updates, beyond daily musings and light bits of poetry.

Retirement planning



Retirement planning for
After the work is done
What if the work is
never done, not ever
Not on this Earth to
rest easy, consume
Do the minimum and
wait my turn to die
Rebel against age, live
until through the end
Always more to do
Plenty to be done
I’m on Facebook, there I’ll be able to communicate with people more directly, and also have more writing updates, beyond daily musings and light bits of poetry.
