the road walked I

The road walked I

Its name Frustration –

A panoply of pain

And strolled all day

The avenue –

Of subterfuge and strain

Anxiety drove untoward –

The palisade of mourning

Wanton disregard sustained

Via gambolling and cuckolding

The chariot perambulates

Pray – blessed with new

Beginning

A world discovered

Unto thee – to lose

Is to be winning

They come to serve

And yet (enslaved)

The future – far horizon

Reset thought

(despair be taught)

Once lost – but now is

Rising

The road of cobble-stone

Walked I – a priori –

(left success) –

And felt the pain

Borne from the strain –

Extremities recess

With my head in the sky and my wings in the air, I try to spend my spare time at the footy (AFL in Australia) Go Pies! – and valuable hours with family and friends. Otherwise I’ll have pen in hand and notebook at the ready for those insightful snippets that dream up a poem. I contribute to Cosmofunnel where you’ll find a guided universe of poetry and art.
