Yes, artists tend to notice the fine details. When presented with creative flare, these observations can make powerful connections with an audience. As your expression here has done with me, Mig.

I vote. I'm adamant about my position on key issues. The way I vote and my position on issues are indicative of my world-view. If the same is true of someone I'm considering dating, and the scenery in my world-view distorts when superimposed with theirs... we're probably incompatible.

Thanks for your time and interest folks. I appreciate your feedback.

Head above waves when I walk on stilts
and cloud the sea spray stirring the silt.

When the wiseguy's shoes tug on my legs
dragging me deeper this diver begs
a mermaid to share air with a kiss
to resuscitate the tanks with buoyant breaths.

Lifting me slowly from the murky depths
light shafts glint off her iridescent scales,
beams a shade brighter every thrust of her tail.

Pierce through the surface turn my head and see,
a cement mixing thug lurking waiting to sink me.

Thanks, Robin and Julie.

It's good to see you are sharing your writing again, Robin.

Toes stop at the foot
of buried corpse holes,
mustn't trample dead coots
with kids and soccer goals.

Tombstone eulogies gush
chipped script effigies
mouthy cadavers hushed
embalmed expired retirees.

Thought bubbles inflated
with the stink breath hot air
of closet poets frustrated
drawing comics in dark lairs.

Ordained mortician preachers
recite trite pamphlet ads
selling creature comfort features
they exaggerated a tad.

Silk lined wooden crate
hermetic gasket seals it,
formaldehyde filled veins
throat too tight for pealing.

Crematorium furnace sparks
within it the sickness burns,
rebuild cemeteries into parks
put grandma's bone flakes in an urn.

I really appreciate it when my writing is acknowledged. Thanks y'all.
