H.i Chesebit Poems

Inspired by:
‘Ink runs from the corners of my mouth
There is no happiness like mine.
I have been eating poetry.'
...

Vile base words though flung at me
utterance will never affect my dignity.
Inside my spirit guarded from harm
unaffected by any other's charm
...

Time and again
I end up falling for them
Though the titles do tell the sad tale
...

I found one single poem today
a glistening gem bright as day
There was no angst of death or fright
nor any strife over wrong or right
...

One
I scan the list of
newly posted stuff
One time each day
...

A clue for you
who cram this site
with the inanely trite
...

She
seen
this way
game over
...

Choice Fruit

Pick the apple of thy eye
from thy neighbor pluck the cherry
...

Anxiety
a sand glass
Hide-n-Seek
her
...

My message in a bottle
the story of an aging angler
just an old battler
...
