the golden age

~

the golden age ( tale a true )

…



when all was gold in the golden age

existence gleamed through its golden stage

all life it shined, all earth did the same

from pots & hearts

to plates worth their weight



in everything - standards disappeared

too soon back in those bland former-years

our wax was gold - the wax in our ears

our shit was gold

 we wept golden tears

listesque

listesque ( a poetry )

…




bastard handshakes

every morn like bran flakes

medjool me mandates

tooth thy pick



nomad notepads

often glad is so sad

blue john & topaz

mined that shit



hoppy scented

some hopes have fermented

ale wails demented

down it quick



kitchens sinking

now all caps are thinking

keen eyes are squinting

tick - tick - tick

...




























modern folk

modern folk ( a pondering )

…




spring is old

yet spring is new

puzzling

but this is true

wander then

admire a view

praise the strange

then grab a pew



as we do

as sayings go

observe birds

the songs they know

by anon

from loads ago

we are trad

we're modern folk
