Ayear as a Poet

Howdi
  by Genki   元気

Faces on the TV
Figure on the Cross
Marketing a necktie
For showing to the boss.

Sleep comes very quickly
I spend much time away
I find myself, I'm sitting cocked
Just now is Judgement Day

This poem ain't got "deep meaning"
It shouldn't win a prize
First Testament to Life & Death
Reflections - What is Wise?

The family may be active
The children may be glum
We each approach a different world
the trite the bright the scum

I like the glare of sunlight
Interspaced with birds.
I like the sound of sitting still
Just breathing     without words...
