The camera doesn’t really matter
What matters, is having the idea
For that shot you always wanted
And that’s how the magic happens

Thinking
“Thinking hard or hardly moving one thought?” Gun Roswell
Thinking
Mind in full spin-cycle
As my thoughts its trying to tackle
I feel like i am about to chuckle
But then lost in another puzzle
My brain is trying to hustle
Thoughts on the Day of Birth
“Even the Eternal Entity needs a day of… rest?“ Gun Roswell
Thoughts on the Day of Birth
Eternal or not
Cartoony or Spock
Sometimes life is a lot
Alas, happier thoughts
Despite the weight
Of one more year of age
Be it on the waist
Or somewhere else
The eyes still see
The heart still feels
The brain…
…well, that is a whole other can of worms
Literally, don’t even try to check it out
Alas, I digress!
Happy something something day
To the one who wrote this poem to celebrate!
Cake?
Coffee?
Yes please!
And keep it pouring at least
Until the clock chimes twelve
On the twenty-seventh
(The day of hell???)
Young, old, eternal, in prime?
We all need our day to shine!
Inside my coffee
“I am always there, inside my coffee, weird huh?“ Gun Roswell
Inside my coffee
Inside my coffee I live, love and like
Just the way things are right now; right
Very, very dark and quite strong
Oh, but please,
Really, do not get me all wrong
As sometimes, well, often times actually
The total and utter staleness gets me mad
And then I turn all sour and oh so very sad
But then I remember that one perfect thing
Which is,
That I live inside my coffee and I start to sing
Praises of the liquid
Which I can never get sick with
As I swim around my little pond
Filled with coffee, oh so strong
Too much?
Yes, well, maybe, but I got the luck
As my dwelling, is my stuff of drinking
And even if I sometimes tend to be sinking
Deep, deep into the other end
This is the place, my coffee blend
Where all my time, I so love to spend
Monochromatic Monday Reflected
“On Mondays, you just want to go totally grey and reflect on the good days of the weekend”
Gun Roswell
Monochromatic Monday Reflected
When the working week beckons
It it that time you need to reckon
Whether to treat the upon coming days as friend
Or go through them one by one like they were a foe
Riding up the glass covered lift car
Is a really good place to start
Thinking whether Mondays really are that bad
Or is it a learnt mental state to be sad
On this one day when everything starts a new
Maybe there are days of bad ahead just a few
And the rest of the week is just fine
Until that much awaited time
When Friday raises its promising head
Indicating of a carefree weekend, ahead!

Ciphered code:
2017 06 27 52
A lottery number?
You may have won!
No, not in this mode
Just fall back to slumber
Nothing too cryptic
Nothing remotely close to apocalyptic
But, a date of some importance
At least for where I take my stance
Today, turning fifty one
Feeling, like a phaser on stun
Pardon the Star Trek pun
Being La Gun, is still lots of fun
So:
Happy Birthday to me-ee!

Coffee, by any other name (BEST OF 2016)
Posted in BEST OF 2016
“As long as there was coffee in the world, how bad could things be?”
― Cassandra Clare, City of Ashes
Coffee, by any other name
“What’s in a name?
That which we call, coffee,
By any other name,
Would smell as sweet;”
The sweetest of aroma,
From every cafe in Roma
Bringing you to your knees,
When on a walkabout, in Paris
A cup of Java
A cup of Joe
Darker than molten lava
Just let the liquid flow!
Because,
Coffee, by any other name…
Well, it’s all coffee,
Really,
And all coffee
Is good,
Just
Drink,
Enjoy,
And be merry
And sooner than later
Have another cup
Then some more,
Maybe one more,
For the road,
To get off the load,
Take away,
Now you’re talking,
Just keep on walking
Another cafe
Is bound to
Come along!

Upside Down with a Selfie for Daily Photo
World filled with wonder
In the beyond Yonder
A world which is upside down
A smile or an upside frown
