Inuenu

the weekend nears

the sky is unclear

but objectives firm in mind



with chickens clucking

and soft hands callousing

i'm remembering easier times



when birthdays mattered

when girls only wished flattery

and simple movie-dinner dates



i wonder on these years

only 6, and so come the tears

as i ponder on the plans of the Fates



loves, lusts and likes recycled

in a mind so heavily traveled

as friends and family console



i dwell on possible descendants

as i hold only the remnants

hoping they'll feed my soul



seeds fertilized by the ashes

breathe live anew into the caches

as i water the ground with my tears



shall beauty be born

or shall i prick on the thorn...



my expectations

through revelations

are fed fantasies by my fears
