Mundane Monday

“To bring the sublime into the mundane is the greatest challenge there is.”
Hazrat Inayat Khan

I’ll follow if You lead

Where ever you’ll go
I will follow
You are my human
I am your dog-man
I don’t care if you wear pink
Even though others say it stinks
So let’s end this in a rhyme
And I will ‘go’ on the chime

Simple for Mundane Monday

“I have always been caught by the pull of the unremarkable, by the easily missed, infinitely nourishing beauty of the mundane.”
― Tana French, Broken Harbor

Simply Red

Simple it the word
Easily slurred
But for a mundane day
The colour is grey
With a touch of red
Unravelling the thread

“I have always been caught by the pull of the unremarkable, by the easily missed, infinitely nourishing beauty of the mundane.”
― Tana French, Broken Harbor

Simply Blue

Simple, with blue
Some red in the view
A blurry object
Nothing too perfect
Just something caught in a frame
And for that, you have me to blame

“We’re horribly mundane, aggressively mundane individuals. We’re the ninjas of the mundane, you might say” Andy Partridge

Hard Times for Mundane Monday

“Hard Times”
The wall stated

“Living on dimes!”
Sighing frustrated

Sign of the times?

Only cheap wines
Walking the thin line
Avoiding the mines
Remembering,
The good old times

And as long as this rhymes
I will be feeling just fine

Remnants

Years and years have I lived
The stories I could tell
Just a little token you need to give
And my story I will sell

He who, for a treasure searches
Behind the dark forest lurches
Some of the most beautiful birches

Look Up!

When in the forest of deep

Centipede

A monster in the deepest forest?
Something scary and horrid?
Nah, it’s just a tree, being modest
After all, it is related
To a centipede
