Hello

Hello

A Poem by Alfred Kukitz
"

an evening of fun

"

Hello

When did all the memories of your friends gather round the living room and say hello?
Whitewashed into your own oblivion
Smiles gathered around the fire place
A rum drink here, a Chimay there, laughs lacking sobriety,
You hear the album play
One pill makes you larger, one pill makes you smaller,
One pill makes you no more.
The melody played on.

The linchpin ghost mumbles the essence of all reality into nothingness
You smile, teeth show the decay of your soul,
You meander into useless dialect with some imaginary being
There you stay, shouldering nonsense into the ladder of your dreams

Thanks E!

I miss the camera. I just broke off with a hard women, nothing sexual, just social. I'm leaning heavy into my own nonsense. Take care buddy!

Thanks Anand!

Chimay is made by Trappist Monks; its an ale you don't want to swallow. Get the big bottle with the cork!

Thanks Moon's Fairest Daughter!

A yoga inspired idea that was initiated in the first line. The abundant leaves are here, home repair on the horizon; meanwhile, the camera sits aghast in idleness.

Love You Women!

"A rum drink here, a Chimay there, laughs lacking sobriety,
You hear the album play "- Such a vivid and endearing expression :) Loved this work

Gosh, this sounds depressing...what is it about fall that inspires such melancholy in us poets...
Love the lines from "white rabbit"...
You sum up so many emotions in this tiny piece...true, your tone is nonchalant and playful but the emotions that it utters are so deep and malancholic...you make the reader muse about the beautiful transience of each moment with your lines...
