Clarity Pyramid #2

Wealth,
Comforts,
Possessions;

Burdens to be borne,
Loss leaves souls forlorn,
Destitute shall die careworn,

“Shrouds do not have any pockets!”

Septolet #5

Thoughts,
Uninvited, Uncensored,
Often cunningly insidious,
Invade uninformed minds –

Usually,
Detrimental,
To the thinkers!

‘Sell Out’…..

Would you betray me with a kiss?
The dreaded question for deceit,
Most antithetical to bliss,
The way to personal defeat.

Uncommon custom to close friends,
Would you betray me with a kiss?
A gesture that no one offends,
When proferred with no ill remiss.

When loyalty has gone amiss,
Exposing Trust to Evil’s guile,
‘Would you betray me with a kiss?’
For sure true friendship shall defile.

Whether through choice or by design,
Such treachery shall none dismiss,
May Life me ne’er to this consign –
Would you betray me with a kiss!

In Extremis!

Abandoned?

Doubt beyond belief,
Afflicts those in chronic grief –
Pain defies relief!
