Meals in the quagmire
28 January 2016
Merry go
Round and round it twirls
This strange world
Leaves nothing
Unturned rocks withstand all times
Even when they’re hurled
Easy come
Yet hard to depart
We lonesome
Reinvent
Weird new ways to be alone
Silence of the Heart
We are full
Minds saturated
Dream filled thoughts
Milky ways
The soul wincing as it slays
Demons in dungeons
Empty hearts
The love forgotten
Banners high
Reason floats
I build castles without moats
Accessible prey
Beast circling
The approach an art
Flanks observed
Poise absurd
Learn survival from the herd
Inner voice pleads shrill
Lonely King
Sun in skies sets me
Baleful blue
Hues sallow
Earthen mouthfuls entrenched deep
Within I swallow
Heartaches lumps
Stories lost untold
Dark bitter
Skins goosebumps
Crawling through my systems’ breach
Melodies unfold
Morrows Queen
I stitch inward seam
Zipped faces
Mouths uncut
Cinderella in a dream
Eyes in wake stay shut
Sweep and sweep
Princess rags to stitch
Carriage meek
Fire for witch
Secrets close to bosoms keep
Endings out of reach
Pumpkins sleek
Words mere empty pun
Tell a snitch
Favours meant
All the signals that I sent
Lost in trance late shun
Dervish whirls
High up in the skies
Keep the pearls
Pigs snort hard
Pick up on the wayward shard
Beady eyes and grunt
Choice so vast
Yet mind so tight set
I wiped brunt
You wiped slate
I translate the old regret
Meals in the quagmire

Another world – Stamatis Spanoudakis
