Quatrains and more.

Hello for a hello,
Hi for a Hi,
emojis smile,
pictures AI,
eyes go dry,
but screen-time's high,
there's no sky,
just scroll me by!

We don't love
like kids anymore
sharing candies,
trading marbles,
watching butterflies in peace,
cleaning mud on the hands
and running in the breeze;
if you're growing up,
please don't, please!

I don't remember
how we started that,
how hugs happened,
how kisses start;
'cause bedtime goes
like "you didn't do your part,
you don't change, there's
neither money nor you're smart"
All that prep talk
and drama tears the sheet apart.
And before we know it
matrimony's charred!

Nobody needs to know I love you,
I count on myself, not even you.
I'm sorry if that annoys too
'cause you think I take it 'cause I have to.

I play tic tac toe,
me against me.
It's honest because
nobody fails me.

I'm up so early
for an hour to date me.
I sell my hours,
dues demand me.
I'm paid for duty,
so rules bind me.
So I do the daily,
please allow me!
I'm told what matters:
say "yes", no "sorry",
be a good boy
so the job walks me.

Forty seven years
and all those failures
are enough to know
what stays, who disappears!

I'm lucky I got a poet in me,
who writes everytime they judge me
and everytime I make them leave me
and I glow, but it's so mid-noon to see.

I don't really know where you belong;
are you lucky enough to die and they mourn?!
If there's nothing yours to celebrate next dawn,
you've done it bad, you've done it all wrong!

Once in a while I think God needs me
to refuse to thank Him, the glorious "Thee"!
He just wants the fun to be
when we get a break from monotony.

I hate to talk about polity.
The country dreams there's unity in diversity.
There seems only just variety
in how they act drunk hiding sobriety.

[trippythree @trippythree]

Any war matters.
A lot of blood, bodies and splatters,
the world looks like dissed by Marshall Mathers.
Pay attention when a wailing crowd gathers.

That glimmer of the man is back,
he makes no scene about being sacked.
Even as he's rebuked for that,
he still runs the mile, writes songs, that's a fact.

[trippythree @trippythree]

When you write something that strong
you have to live all that's in the song,
and get the world to read along
with an angel whispering "yes, go on".

I write quatrains like I munch on biscuits,
among those who care not how good this can get.
This is art, the lifeline, not the deadline to be met.
So, I'm broke until I casually break the internet.

God wants me to be on my knees
that's what I heard at least from the priest.
But I know god's a feisty jeez please,
we both hate a job that shuts out the breeze.

It came out, came out like a truce,
but it was really all about the dues!
Memory's a binge watch like the news
unless lovers win and haters lose.

It grows even when you don't water it.
It's charming when you just drool over it.
Half the ego is a stunted growth,
and the rest is just wavy hair that flows.

They binge watch, pay in cash,
spend more, they're fast.
Corporates make the money
what is craved, selling that!
