Sometimes…
our greatest pleasure
is the absence of pain
As often…
the best thing that can happen
—is nothing at all
(Dreamsleep Pennsylvania: September, 2019)
Lost Horizon
In her clouds of mystery,
souls recalled
Where voices cry out
—from Shangri La
(Dreamsleep: September, 2019)
The Pot & The Kettle
Democrats run on problems
they contrive
Republicans run on problems
they deny
One as bad as the other,
together much worse
As the status quo suffers
—awaiting the hearse
(Villanova Pennsylvania: September, 2019)

Kurt,
Thank you for sharing these three poignant poems...
• “Absentia”
... relatable!
• “Lost Horizon”
...even from ‘Shangri La’
‘voices’ will ‘cry out’!
• “The Pot & The Kettle”
...especially poignant during these political times of uncertainties!
~Laura~
Thanks Laura
My pleasure!😊
#3 explains perfectly why I stay clear of politics!
#1 usually happens when we worry like crazy in advance
Thanks Fred
