Wash and Repeat

written by: Any1mark

@any1mark66

Fresh earth taste wanes
Another roundhouse kick
Worn leather replaces it
Somewhere fate smiles down
Pushing buttons for responses
Pushing others patience for fun
The lesson never changes much
The results fall away in gutters
Horizons darkening future dreams
Somewhere dawn teases hope
Getting back up to start again

Mark, a traveler with a working problem. I spend my time writing poetry, flash fiction, and taking pictures of the world. I have time because I'm waiting for the Ckeveland Browns to win a Super Bowl.

Shadows of New York by Francisco Bravo Cabrera

One day I sat and listened to the choirs of Babel.
It took me back to when I painted shadows in New York
which cast skyscrapers high above your garden.
And I wondered if an island, in the seas of nowhere,
would have served as shelter if our ship should sink.

Did a siren with her song lead you so far away from home,
and has that made you forget me?
Have you removed the old tattoos?
Did you forget the sailing trips?
Was it because Manhattan’s winds destroyed your jib?...
