Prewritten: clandestine, mugwort
~MissMerry: Prewritten by MM
The mugwort sitting sweating in the old Toyota next to me in traffic suddenly started waving a folded magazine, flailing about frantically, she then smacked the dash and ended a bees small life. Then my mind began to wander…
If my days were ended suddenly
I’d have this one request
If I could but come back to be
what some consider a pest
the complicated life I have lived
-thoughts delving into the existential
I would rather return as one
thought to be almost inconsequential
I’d love to fly with paper thin wings
landing on petals so perfectly made
gathering pollen, nectar and sweets
seeking out each floral glade
a life devoid of “good” or “evil”
not clandestine or seductive
a life full of purpose
every action productive
to awake with the dawn
and guide flights with the sun
covered in pollen as I gather
the next season blooms by what I have done
My life would be short
– never meant to last
just living for the flowers
would be a blast
Flying free and doing nothing but good-
Unless I happened across that lady in the Toyota…
I would end it all just to sting her ass.
I’m just saying.

Impromptu: charity, helmet
~Greenie: Onward
With a modicum of moderation
not without much frustration
With a torch of illumination
onward without a hesitation
Helmets borne with perspiration
set forth to march in bifurcation
Charity filled hearts in exhaltation
Respect the basis for their dedication
~
~MissMerry: MM Impromptu
The finest charity
and hardest to do –
giving myself a day
far away
The helmet drops
hair tossed free
I might be almost
far away
Cooling pipes, tick tick tick
jacket drapes the seat
lie on the grass
far away
The smell of leather
in the warm sun
as I enjoy just being
far away
