He called me morning dew
Clinging to him
When I feared he would wilt
So I fell like rain
To nurture his heart.

I splattered on the pavement
He was gone
To become an ornament
In someone else's vase.

Status redundant.
Not fit for employment now.
Time for something else.

To stay in power
ensure everyone argues
and do as you please.

Discarded after
The diagnosis, no-one
Wants the unwanted.

Imagine a great artist
whose work gets thrown in a bin
great masterpieces
thrown in the trash
Wonderful drawings
discarded
ripped to shreds
in an angry tantrum
the artist now regrets

No great objection
To algorithmic rejection—
A modern reflection
Of loss of connection—

Blame it, game it
Shame it, frame it

Or try a new slog
And go analog.

Is that just the way,
When you’re barely getting started,
Odds far and away
And always feeling discarded?

i was #discarded like an empty bag
tossed onto a busy sidewalk
in the city that never sleeps

was i good?
positively yes

was i sweet?
most definitely

was i enough?
most likely to plain for their liking

Sir John Barleycorn,
buried 'neath dirt clods, scythed and
flailed to make our ales.

take these breaths
fragments of a moment
while seeking crushed diamonds
in the perfect tear of my angel...

Feeling pain that’s deep like the
abyss Regretting some of the opportunities that I’ve missed As life’s pain #crushed me into particles and left me pulverized I pulled myself together came back and materialized And now it’s time to mobilize and continue to survive and thrive #Emoetry #poetry #poet

#Emoetry

Always interests
Ideas and all ambitions
Were constantly crushed

Mind and flesh collide—
flawed moral combatants joined
in pointless #conflict.

Crushed glass
on hardwood
crushed dreams
swept in dustpan,

love turns
conflict
love turns
hate

what have I done

#emoetry #vss365 #poetry

That #conflict caused a #divide
#Divide the cost of this #round

#Red #Tinged hats #signal #divide

I'll #divide #most of the loot
This #divide has #crushed our souls

#Jagged #lines #divide the truth
