I stumbled through each morning,
it was all about today
Dissolute and scorning,
of all that passed away
Wandering and faint of heart,
old promises unsworn
Living once then living twice
—the moment was reborn
(Dreamsleep: June, 2021)
Bleeding Out
Blood stains in my memory,
clotting in my heart
Arteries of pain and loss
—hemorrhaging the dark

Thanks Neil, and welcome here.
Kurt.
Yes, every moment is reborn as we live one then live twice. Your poems are so full of practical living, I just have to read them twice and perhaps thrice.
Thanks as always.
Well written, Kurt.
A couple of beauties.
Thanks so much, Jerry.
Kurt

Bleeding out'

'Dissolute and scorning,'
''Wandering and faint of heart,'

(once more, dear poet
I have rudely and as ever, selfishly
gone and rearranged your beautiful Poetry
all I can do is just hope you can forgive
my overzealous foolishness
and see it, as my feeble celebration
of your endlessly inspirational: Poetic Mastery)
I always enjoy your creative editing.
Thanks LB.
