Poems without Explanations.

[Discount Bassy]

Love worn thin like cloth,
Traveling with old haunt ghosts.
Lost paths are narrow.

 

[Discount Bassy]

Equity is scorned
By those with great privilege
When loss is perceived.

 

[Discount Bassy]

Mastery of arts
Is not an accomplishment,
It is a process.

 

[Discount Bassy]

Not a fortune cookie.
Intact, I can tell you things.
Broken, I will bleed.

 

[Discount Bassy]

Seize control of life,
Making the worst decisions.
Blame fate for outcomes.

 

[Discount Bassy]

Two dirty windows.
The house is in disarray.
True transparency.

 

[Discount Bassy]

The plow turns the soil.
Stones both dull and sharpen blades.
Earth and flesh are one.

 

[pcake]

leaving him alone in the hospital room
visiting hours are over
everything inside me screams "NO!"
my heart is still in that hospital bed with him

[Discount Bassy]

Releasing the past
Does not involve forgetting.
Remember and learn.

 

[Discount Bassy]

Wearied, shat upon,
The children, again, handle
Problems of parents.

 

[Discount Bassy]

A sense of grievance.
Self-righteous indignation.
Shadows cast by pride.

 

[Discount Bassy]

The bright light of truth.
Darkness hides behind mirrors.
Flaws shine like diamonds.

 

[pcake]

sometimes a tiny light of hope
burns in the distance
of the darkest night
be sure to keep your eyes open
so you don't miss it

 

[ImTheOnlyOne]

The angels up in heaven
Looking down upon the pigeons
Where the birds are each a-poopin'
On the cleanest car a smidgen
While the driver seated flushes
Lunches down and to the fishes
Who blow bubbles full of wishes
To the angels ( in no rushes )
To be other worldly judges
Of which bait to use for fishin'
For a soul or two or seven
After life and death are loopin'
A wet feather
Tickles
A catfish

 

[Discount Bassy]

Only in darkness
Can the faintest glimpse of light
Be seen most clearly.

 

[Discount Bassy]

Bones to dust to soil.
Seed to fruit. Nourished by death.
Fed, body and mind.

 

[FilterFunk]

Prolific Bassy
Don't Discount his expertise
Producing haiku

 

[Discount Bassy]

Only in stillness
Can the farts of a dust mite
Be both heard and smelt.

 

[Discount Bassy]

When eased of burden,
Grow into empty spaces.
Remember its shape.
