A Poem a Day Rip-Offs

'Glass' image courtesy of Pixabay.com Look into me and rejoice! I am like nothing you have ever fathomed - as sharp as a slosh of vodka, infused with a wonky frown. And there, from my core, gaze the bubbles of fizz; eyeballs that squint through the haze, as they hey-nonny-nonny out the depths of my tummy flying fast into bullet-shot loon.

'Hand' image courtesy of Pixabay.com Let me go to the window Where the rainfall sloshes from joint Of broken pipe Down eggshell-cracked rendering Of outer wall Let me feel a little life Where my teardrops slip-slide from whites Of bloodshot sight Down eggshell-cracked rendering Of outer skin Give me a lover O you gods that sit and give The old new wonders. Give me passion, lust and steam. Don't shut me in. Let me out through the window To join in with the dream-shapes of fortune. So that I might use my wit and my cunning To break the long loneliness.
