I care to sidle along
Numerous instances
Of lull and displeasure,
To more fertile grounds
Beaming with vitality
And sweet memories-
Nectar so impassioned
As to arouse my bones,
Drifts down ichor-like
A fountain of youth,
And ambrosial recounts
Feed an ever-turning mind
And sate a desire for past.

A
Step Away

From
Conventions and
Normality
That
Burden my shoulders
With
Such
Aggravating
Weight consuming all too
Much
Of
My
Time
Here on this brief visit;
Why
Waste
My
Mortality
On
Such trivial ages of absent passivity?

A
Step Aside
