Five Poems by petro c.k.

 


Meager Hopings 

 

fixing the pink water lilies 

             after a hurricane 

       passed 

                through


an apple has survived many wars

 

surfaces torn between nations 

             as were the tapestries 

         and before

 

it hurts to have a break

                      pointed to myself 

            well-crafted logically

 

the problem was the last time

                   no gifts for your 

                              time and effort 

            years from now begin

 

                                    with a name 

 

 

Imaginary Good Friends 

 

No calls for 

the rest


stones long 

perseverance

 

weather has come 

years and skies

 

Hands on a 

condemned 

building 

 

 

Extension Denser 

 

Tensions are not done with you 

yet another time to get back in touch 

                and I hope the book clarifies 

                theories for the future


The waves lap the barren shore 

for the last time we spoke 

                Diatoms swim with no memories

                underneath trees embarrassed 

                by their eagerness for pollinators

 

Hearing from the depths of rippling darkness

resolute is not the only one that says it all 

                Showers in Italy are a great place

                for a closer look at our auras

 

family past 

always butterflies

                in headlights 

 

 

After Dumping Out The Coffee Offal

 

Wandering 

            outside 

               of the market


      how you can now

 begin 

          a layout


                      of your own way 

                             to take 

                   advantage

 

         of a distant 

                                              echo 

               against the morning


           and across the 

                 hors of the world 

 

 

Telemetry For Hours 

 

the volume of the event horizon marble 

was measured by yellow lines neatly

endless days of the universe compacts 

into a final black hole
