Urban sunset

 

The lowering sun

renders the urban landscape

insignificant.

Eternity

 

Geological

time contextualises

human existence.

Interloper

 

There’s a pooch in my

meeting; its contributions

are greater than mine.

Bait ball

 

Explosive shimmers

on the surface; predators

move in for the kill.

Sweet death

 

Intoxicated

by your seductive perfume

I’m drawn to my fate.

Five words

 

Accidentally

her beloved discovered;

serendipity.

Blanked

 

Twin rod tips watched with

dedication and fragile

anticipation.

Stinking

 

Summer’s sickly stench

skulks in side streets all set to

assault my senses.

 

by Scooj

Last days…

 

The deceitful sun

warms my back just enough to

keep chill winds at bay.

 

by Scooj

In the lap of the Gods

 

Where did it all go?

Youth, enthusiasm and

immortality.
