in a flash
the fall
commotion
slow motion
disruption
abruption
not a moment
to spare
pleading
bleeding
consciousness waning
draining
draining
pale skin against
a warm crimson river
of dying
crying
the anguished #mournful sobs
of a mother’s desperation

#emoetry

#Mournful looking into the depths of
life, where suffering seems
eternal, where the grave still
crave the living. Despite how many
bodies go in it it’s never satisfied.
Centuries of collective grief,
which number is greater tear drops
or people deceased?

#mournful for what
should have been
instead of what is
that is why
I look ever forward
because if I look back
all the regret
would swallow me up
and I can't change
what happened in the past
but I can still improve my lot
for the future

Wall to wall
painted black
a film of darkness everywhere
you sent us into mourning
a gothic tone
now we live in the dark age
waiting for enlightenment again
science and philosophy
cracked into pieces
music plays a mournful tune

A wound on the world,
Mournful wailing rising up,
Keening for justice.

We remember hope
from just a few years ago.
Then the bad ones came.

…c’est la Pomme de terre
Promised to carry you everywhere
Despite the looks, occasional glare
This fine looking tuber in my care
Now eyes with crow’s feet and wear
I see in them a soft mournful stare

Sweet memories when I pass the mound
Where I returned my potato to the ground
