Bird Problems

In his nest

sits a bird

with his nut.

 

But the nut won’t crack.

 

He raps

slams

and bangs,

 

but

try as he might

 

the

nut

just

will

not

*SNAP*

​

The Knight

I saw a shining knight,

His sword glorious and ornate.

 

His blade was made

From fine intertwined iron.

 

A crested shield meant

To represent his men

Rested in his other hand.

 

His horse stood strong

Atop a rock

Eager to start

A warrior’s march.

​

A Conflict

I’m entirely undecided.

Can I really reach out,

making myself available again?

Can I risk wrongs

for a chance of rights?

 

Ease off the emotions.

Let’s think rationally.

 

Suppose I reach out

Things go well

We connect again

Well, wouldn’t that be wonderful?

Imagine our experiences,

Brilliant and boundless!

Her…

Beguiling, beautiful…beatific…

But…

Backhanded. Belligerent. Bitter.

 

Stay out of sadness,

emotions in check.

 

Was it my fault?

Is she justified in her response?

Can we close the door without closure?

It’s hard to think logically.

Consequences could come, 

but only calling can clear up if our conflict cracked our connection completely,

or if there’s a chance of connection.

Catharsis.

 

I’m thinking rationally enough.

Giving her a ring sounds rather refreshing.
