A Sense of Scent

opening my window
eyeing the dark garden
exhaling slowly
rainy night scents
sweet and summer
quiet and earthy
wake the thought
i'm in free
i'm in free

 

 

; gardyloo Hamburg  (Scotch Rain)

gardyloo G2
meltbergs , heat ,chemicals
disease and poverty raining killslop

gardyloo G2
anger, strife,  starvation  , and equality
toss gobs of waxing oneworld hopes
chasing away a promised status quo doom

cement pours on still glowing Chernobyl
Soviet helicopter blades scream gardyloo
the G2 haves retort
let them eat yellowcake


; olde meme / a Scottish call when throwing slops from the windows into the streets

 

 

NeoMath/Word/LoveDeath
(mathematical proof for dissolved love)

as autumn equals fall

(ditsy crushes, loneliness and love-longing
divided by objective decaying deception
times 2 )
plus dallied days

is equal to common infatuation
rendering
the illusory nearness of berry to Juneleaf
or mistaken strength of rotting bark to trunk

realized pseudo-love
and frail waning desire
produce a cheerless reality

 

CloudBurst (Hey Now)

Moon High
A great thunder crack
and dire rain burst
is rushing to earth
missed by half baked scientists
man the tool maker
manic technologists, bankers
and the innocent life we destroyed
hey now
a final torrent of natural that's-it from above 
place your ear to the sky listen
as the Indian tracked the railroad
with attention to iron tracks
hear the drops of acid rain
the thunder of extinct
the no turning back
force of destruction
we weren't alone
we had responsibility 
to Biota
but treated earth like a toilet
Cloudburst (Hey Now)
