Francis H Powell writer and poet

‪The librarian's karaoke night
all bold and bright
at eight o'clock it came to life

They belted out tunes
it got out of hand
nothing premeditated
nothing pre-planned

They danced and sang
told lewd jokes
when it got late
they got their coats

Listen to
incoherent testimony,
soulful, bountiful,
magical life-
defined by numbness,
fury, longing;

nobody asks
their turn,
place in line,
spot in the
lot-
chance is the
grippiest part;

Truth outed,
soul lies in wait

an open door invites me

Flabbergasted,
the sweet magnolia
has withered
and all the scent of
fullness
gone with it-
stillness
enters

#emoetry #bedroomeyes #poetry

“Five String Serenade” played
over
and over again
as the dorm
ceiling looked
the same,
I smelled
your patchouli
but you
were gone

#archeprompt #poetry

Those who monitor time
twenty-four hours of the day
obsessed by the constant ticking of a clock
watch time drift away

#2wordprompt #monitor #tick

Monitoring clocks
For the workday's end tick-tock
slow as a watched pot.

Sorry for your loss.

Learning to live off the land was a struggle
Plantings, feedings, harvests and more to juggle
After winter was harshest
Finally bountiful harvest
To all friends and helpers treats I did smuggle

Let's open up to the past
#7syllablesentence
#open

; open your eyes; you cannot

see what you choose not to see -

open your mind; you can't learn

learn when you choose to remain

ignorant - open your heart;

love is stronger than hate, but

you must choose to let it in.

So are you open minded?

#7syllablesentence

costs nothing to open hearts

Summer heat
on my face
The sky opens up
like a lover's embrace
Violet shadows,
dreams of rain
windows open
to numb of the pain
lizards scamper on
heated stones
monuments aflame
in ancient Rome

It's polite to ease it in

I'd like some ease if you please.

#ease

with ease Hilary responds
to their foolish distraction

Ink on parchment,
a promise pressed into history.

We are the mouth that moves,
the press that prints,
the congregation on the steps.

They are the terrorists, who catalog every face, in your workplace.

We've read the page,
and we won't be erased.

#LIBERTY

In Mad March, you need to have a least one line which is an internal rhyme.

i.e. we dance in a trance

I am aware that this won't reach as many people as if Dave posted it, so would appreciate shares, please 🙏

Cheers
