And time goes beyond distance.

And time goes beyond distance
while I prepare my flight
with packed trunks
lost dreams and
volatile notes.

I want to eat out of your hand
as a tamed sparrow
waiting which finger to choose
to get the full loot.
My memory is drying out
from guzzling emotions
and what you offer are crumbs.

Wounded bird doubts
which way  to choose,
the easiest,
the fastest,
the safest,
to leave
this tired tale.

You are Louise as in
Rilke's'
Louise luckless love packed in
dissolving paper ending in
an opened coffin stored in
a robbed tomb.

Meanwhile
time goes beyond distance.

What would you have for breakfast?

Beforehand:
 I apologize if ...
(I do not really feel sorry, but a bit of drama adds to the setting.)
... what you thought to be a portion of
romance or a poetic reverie
looks rather
a medical bulletin.


As a slice of suffering is
entertaining so many people
all over the globe
these days
I thought I could
not,  not
raise the subject.

This being said
I would like to share now
with you,  my
freshly baked skull aches
to put on a
Sunny Sunday Morning
breakfast table.

A mindful headache;
a scratching ear;
a runny nose;
a tearing eye;
a bad breath;
a scraping throat;
tooth ache!

I'll eat my hat you
have identified at least one
of those weaknesses
or shall we call them flaws
or if you prefer deficiencies.

Be prepared to have for lunch  
a meal of neck, back
stomach and other floggings.
And for diner
the illnesses of the
lower limbs.

I hate to say it...
(again, I do not really feel sorry but a bit of drama adds to the setting.)
 ... but your coming night
will be eventually
aroused
with the painful dreams of the broken heart.

Oh I forgot...
Did i tell you what
I decided today
to entertain you about ?

Right!
