Launched Poem

"Launched Poem"

I launched a poem
Into the air
And it landed
I know not where

In the crowd
Or in the church
Or in a tree
Does it lurch

How many eons
Or to what place
With it's poetic wings
Drifting in space

Perhaps it's reading
By aliens not understood
But why should we care
We've long turned to wood

Tomorrow

Tomorrow

How far is Tomorrow
And how many Tomorrows will I see
If I awaken in Tomorrow
Today is where I will be

How many will I help
If Tomorrow should come
I could start now
Maybe Today to help some

But there are endless Tomorrows
Earth spinning in it's place
But there are limited breaths
And I will scatter into Space

Another Thingy

"Another Thingy"

By Cole (dog)

Found this thingy
On the road
It was flat
Coulda been a toad

Snatched it up
Chewed real fast
Nothing that good
Could get on past

Donna, my Momma
Was on her phone
This Thingy is good
Now Thingy is gone

On the Road

Doggy Poem by Cole

"On The Road"

It's on the road
I know it's there
Can't wait to lick
It has some hair

You walk so slow
I pull on the rope
Walk faster dummy
Still there is my hope

I smell it ahead
My tongue twirls round
Can't wait to lick
That thingy on the ground

I smell where it was
Some nerd beat me to it
You walk so Damned slow
You need four legs, two don't do it

WallStreet

Poem ...

Wall Street

Soon the skies
filled with suits and ties
Will end that made up glut
Of Wall Street lies

Sell the stock
Fool the flock
When they sell
Watch the clock

When bottomed out
Deliver that shout
Buy baby, buy
That's what it's about

Inside Trade
Got it made
The ruse keeps on
New money is weighed

End of the Circle

End of the Circle

End of the Circle
Song without a song
Fleeing from this moment
Never seeing I was wrong

Clock hand keeps on sweeping
Never stopping for my tears
Never finding the beginning
Ever marking my new fears

In my mind I travel
To far reaches of space
Only to find that
I never left this place

End of the circle
Song without a song
If only one could tell me
What I'm doing wrong

I look for new beginnings
Surely knowing they will end
Trying to leave an endless circle
With nothing else to send

End of the Circle
Song without a song
When is beginning soon
And when is very long

A Darkening Sky

A Darkening Sky

I cast my eye
On a darkening sky
One that must be passed through
With consumption we knew
Would not pass us by

The Quiet

Poem

The Quiet

Noise abounds
Commercials  scream
Robot calls flood
Our answering machine

Social groups shout
Racial inequalities bloom
We want what we want
From birth to the tomb

Behind all the noise
Joys of quietness loom
Away from TVs and smartphones
Away from the Room

It seeps into our mind
Like emptiness of space
The quietness of truth
Finding it's place

A new path we seek
Away from the crowd
The beauty of the quiet
Like drifting of a cloud
