Bitching and Moaning or (Seeing the Light)

Bitching and Moaning or (Seeing the Light)

A Poem by Allen Smuckler

 

              

 Buttercups running aloof

in mi cluttered mind

of discomfort

 

Leaflets flapping

as the world turns

mournfully

on its side

 

Turnstiles of my life

flipping through

the pages of time

 

and all i can see is

misery

 

Flowers cresting

in the space they’re

allowed

hoping for the light

the rain...

the time-

 

Memories wafting

by the impulse of wind

billowing, bellowing

the new season

begins

 

yet all i can see is the

scenery of despair

 

Tormented tides

slapping upside mi head

drowning mi tears

as if i were dead

 

Wandering dreams

of days future past

i’m trying mi damndest

to make mi life

l...a...s...t...

 

But all i can see

is languishing fear

 

bitching and moaning

not seeing the light

From "Diary Dreams"...I don't know why I went on this tirade..I suppose, just to get it off my chest. Bitch and moan, bitch and moan.
