Sinkhole What is in your heart? He screamed at nobody in particular Passersby drifted to the far sidewalk Tugging their children close Giving a wider berth to the growing void That night the men folk would return with stones and tar Heaving and pouring Indifferent to the screaming futility Toil is its own reward Stenciled on their clean white coveralls An anesthetic called rage Stokes an empty pocket Unsheathing the first righteous fist Toil becomes sweat and blood Besmirching the immaculate uniforms Spilling on the cobblestones Pennies and half-rubbed lamps Grant no wishes And feed no starlings They whisper, “Mortimer” These innocent conspirators Perched neatly on insulated lines Away from the gaping maws Chirping in untidy nests Gnawing on the empty calories Of tattered newspapers All that voltage beneath wiry feet But no amplitude Mimicry’s intoxicating wattage Rouses distracting sparks Causing intermittent blindness But no deafness To the chirping cacophony Dangerous sidewalks Flank streets paved in gold Clogged conduits Under the criss-crossed power lines Sagging with starlings The gold tastes like copper To the blind old bird What is in your heart? He screamed at nobody in particular What is in your heart? Echoes in the sinkhole —- By Doodleslice 2021-08-09 #poem #poetry #poetrycommunity #poetrylovers

Reposting for International Cat Day Cat The serious cat is seldom that She takes a nap with twitch and snap But not to rest Tightly coiled and slightly spoiled A drowsy ball of rumbles never grumbles But watches with closed eyes Paw pads of pink will make you think Tummy rubs are safe But they aren’t She’ll cultivate disdain for snowy days and rain And glory in rays of sunny sunlight But for hours Staring at blank walls meowing tiny calls Peeking through centuries past and future But never at supper Midnight crazies belie the lazies Sprinting across bannisters and shelves But the enemy is unseen And on your lap she springs her trap A sultry nap while claws gently pierce your knees But you are content And she is cat.

A drawing and poem that ended up in my book, Color Me With Hugs. If you dig it, you can get the whole book by following the profile links, or use the shortcut https://ift.tt/2Owh0LS or just search for Doodleslice on Amazon 😊❤️👍thank you! Feel What You Feel . Hey! What’s your deal? I feel what I feel: . I’m angry! I’m sad! I’m happy! I’m mad! Up to no good! Misunderstood! Full of remorse! Par for the course! . With feeling I’m reeling From floorboard to ceiling Not faking or spieling Just squealing and dealing . So… If they tell you you shouldn’t That polite people wouldn’t Or you must clamp the feels down And squeeze a smile from a frown . Remember… Feelings are yours They’re real and their swell Let them wash through you Give in to their spell Some make you giggle Some make you seethe And when you’re done with ’em Take time to breathe . Yes remember, remember, remember the deal It’s okay to be real ’bout the feelings you feel . . === .
