All and Sundry

All and Sundry

They all went through my life so fast
I thought they would stay from first to last
Given the present they soon became past
Relegated to memories of having a blast
Brothers, lovers, wives and mothers
Sisters, sons, daughters and fathers
All one act plays of fleeting cast
Something about myself
As the ship sails
I watch the mast
Caught up in the friggin' rigging
I suppose you could see it coming
On life's horizon
Where the moment is vast
While standing still
In the middle of it
All aghast
As everything sinks
In a colorful mess
And flesh stinks
A rotting cess
Crawling toward extinction
This
Is the brightest outcome
Yet laugh I will
When tears erupt
Volcanoes and beans spill
All to make life worth living

Shroud

Shroud My eye orbits visions Storing them In sockets Of spectral energies And lockets Of love and hate Where sex and mates Confuse each other With memories, thoughts and desires Of other lovers While we fuck with ourselves And duck to cover Images Of what we want to be Seen clearly As we could nearly Become Time Running out The genetic sum To multiply One by one Which all adds up When you think about it To Wonder Why we are here At all
