MUNDANE MONDAY CHALLENGE #39

“Our daily lives are so mundane, we get taken over by what is immediately in front of us and we don’t see beyond that” Benedict Cumberbatch

Dolls (Mundane Monday)

Eyes staring
Almost glaring
Never moving
Only viewing

Toward the future?
Or into the past?

No one knows
What on goes
In a doll’s mind
Just be kind

You may be surprised
Or even, hypnotized

They may be mundane
Objects d’art even
Dolls in the window
But no one really knows

MUNDANE MONDAY CHALLENGE #37

“I saw the angel in the marble and carved until I set him free” Michelangelo

Backyard Angel

Snow flakes landing on the ground
Covering the land like a white crown
No stopping of seasons changing
Both in rain and sunlight bathing
The backyard angel sitting still
Feeling neither chill or thrill
A guardian of this household may he be
But not a sound nor move will make he
Rest assured your home is safe
As long as the backyard angel in his place will stay

“I have always tried to live by the ‘awe principle.’ That is: Can I find awe, wonder and enchantment in the most mundane things conceivable?” Craig Hatkoff

Mundane Monday, 2015-12-07, Part Two

Looking out the window
Cannot find a rainbow
Closing all the curtains
Feelings of uncertain
The weather I cannot bend
But at least I can pretend
Turning on all
The colourful lights
In my mind
It is white and bright
At least before it’s time
To make my way outside

twosome

“I think you can find all the elements that you can find in great literature in mundane experiences” Harvey Pekar

One, Two

It started with a few
Then there were two
Only remaining
A single one
Nothing to be done
The time for Winter
Has finally come

“Our daily lives are so mundane, we get taken over by what is immediately in front of us and we don’t see beyond that” Benedict Cumberbatch

Phone Home?

A dialer device
From a different era
Had to suffice
Let me tell ya
An analog connection
No visual perception
No texting
Sure no sexting
Just a calling machine
The only mean
For ancient times
But oh how time flies
Now we all have
A mobile device

Que Sera, Sera

Heavy Metal

Up the stairs
Down the stairs
clicking and clacking of heals
On the heavy metal seals
If you’re running fast
The echoes will last
All the way up
Or way down

An homage to lifts/elevators everywhere 😉

“I like to make the mundane fabulous whenever I can” Rufus Wainwright

Open Sesame

Abracadabra!
How well do you know your algebra?
It is as easy as one, two, three
Even before you can boot your PC
The carriage of comfort
Has lifted you upwards
Your destination dead ahead
Nothing more left to be said
