David Pettus Poems

Starlight

A falling star
To live in earthly life
...

I see the nature of today
As it flows now in ever way
The trees to grow
The flowers bloom
...

Somewhere lost in between,
Are Foggy thoughts to not what they have seen.

Somewhere lost in between,
...

Aye laugh o'lot
To lot o' the laughing loot!
Looting lingering laughs underneath me squeaky smellin laughin' boot?
I boot to hoot the laugh o' lot
...

There is a big scary three legged monster
It is so hairy scaly disfigured and tall
It creeps in the night with yellow eyes
It crawls in the floors and all over the walls
...

Let us suppose
You are in emptiness in which you cannot sense or touch
Yet you oppose
You are no action or direction
...

One who thought to think
was to only bring ideas into blink
Thinking of the thought not long ago
Now is the same thought letting go
...

I said it once
I've counted it twice
Three times I almost said it fives
Four times no more than twice the once
...

Not a soul hopes to be here
As the flesh tears from flying tornados of metal
The faces confused and enraged
Some clueless,
...

Sitting inside a rain drop
Are the tides guided by moonlight
They fall all the time
From the clouds up above high
...
