VISIONARY GONE BERSERK
©SmAzogZ
TOO MUCH INFORMATION HAS BEEN STUDIED ! ! !
A LOGICAL CONCLUSION CAN NOT EVER BE REACHED ! ! ! !
THE IMAGES OF PERFECTION WHICH YOU WISH TO BE ! ! ! !
ARE ALL, I’M AFRAID, JUST CAPTIONS OF WHAT YOU WANT TO SEE ! ! ! !

It’s Valentine’s Day
Hurray, hurray
When lover’s kisses take them into dream worlds of play
War takes a vacation
On this sacred day
Appreciate our beating hearts instead
It is the only way
Put down your implements of destruction
Celebrate, placidly function
Forget about your grievances
How many of them are actually yours to worry about anyway?
There’s plenty of time to worry about that the rest of the year
Now is not the time of obliteration or exclusion
Now is the time to hold close to you the things you hold dear
Matters need not be complicated
Into the banqueting love of Valentine we all disappear
Where sight and vision is unhindered
This is what we should portray highest
No matter the time of the year
Kiss your Valentine’s lips. Red, inviting and crystal clear
Let the whole world around you hear
Because…
It’s Valentine’s day
Hurray, Hurray

VIKING SKIES
In a multi-coloured sky
Contrasts far from blue
Stand on a wooden Viking ship
Weary the studious crew
Sun sets into the distance
Under-shades of darkening orangey red
Swan headed beacon
Curved, crafted like wood
By the gentle coaxing of the seabed
The normally yellow orb shines indefinitely
Yet not in our eyes
Our boat is not fast enough
To keep up with the sunset ~ or the sunrise.
Purple clouds seem eerily hallucinogenic
An arranged confusion of colour, abstractly photogenic
From there ~ at the end of the pier
Standing with my thoughts I coalesce
Temperature drops as evening sets in
Jumper on
From this sight I simply cannot digress
