Look Up!

When in the forest of deep
You may find what you seek
Remember to look up
But try not to stumble over a stub

Hard Times in Mundane Monday

Posted in Mundane Monday 

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

Hard Times

“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

Simply Blue in 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

simple

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

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

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

Pretty in Yellow

Yellow!
Said the fellow
As he helloed
With a bellow
Of a voice
A little rejoice
In his voice
After all
He had broken protocol
And was finally
Smelling the flowers

Will raise its head

Grey for Mundane Monday

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

Grey

Is it a smoke?
Is it a gun?
Is it a pipe?

It does not poke
It’s not even fun
It’s just a hype

It’s a piece of art
