when beauty poked the beholder in the eye

 when beauty poked the beholder in the eye



after walking by the sea under that sky

every poem turned to sackcloth and ashes

dry and tongue tied i stumbled homeward


the chair was hard

the hearth was cold

memory was fixated 

the candle would not light


darkness engulfed me 

i fell asleep with just one thought


tomorrow is my only hope 


my writing boots are running on the spot
