Covered deep in
Poison Ivy
A rash that spreads
and burns
Its toxic mass
left festering
With younger minds
to churn
What used to be
a noble cause
Malingers
in disease
Whose vines grow wild
to trap the dark …
That once were climbed
—to free
(The New Room: December, 2023)
The Smoke Clearing
The world collectively
lost its mind
When fires burned
our vision blind
From East to West
and North to South
Insanity
from mouth to mouth
The world has finally
woken up
Pundits quartered
their lies corrupt
Mobbed together
they screamed on high
But run for cover
—as truth decries
(Dreamsleep: December, 2023)
