Silent Synergy:

Mindful empathy
Extraneous apathy
Comes telepathy

Feather Light Tipi

Midnight, sharp, frigid air,
walking a forest path to watch stars stellar,
with time out of mind,
making a path for others to find,
with crunching snow under his boots,
crunching fallen Mountain Ash fruits,
unfamiliar terrain he came across,
he took a spill and was tossed,
down a steep slope into a ravine,
a part he had never seen,
with a twisted ankle and bruised knees,
he cursed himself he wasn't pleased,
his bad judgment,
placed him in a predicament,
he couldn't retrace his new made path,

Society Nicety:

Language of discourse
Denigratory and coarse
Lowering mores

HOPE (January Contest)

It flows like a river
Which flooded many kinds
It conceives confusion
Though all were aware
The joy and happiness we had
But the smoke of hardship
And the dust of poverty overwhelm.

The Beginning of a new dawn
The sunrises with hope
For better sight and good Vision
For a fresh struggle and hustle
We are all concerned
The time must be our partner
When the year is still an infant
Never lose hope.

Telephony:

Without mobile phone
Does not leave you all alone
Just sets a nice tone

Deadly Draw:

Hands on the trigger
Scanning opposing figure
Whose mortis rigor?

All right?

New amoralism
Indulgent to barbarism
For past cataclysm

Chichidodo

Greatly in love
Have you fallen
With this magot
A blessing from above
You have called it
Yet the sight of its
Place of birth you say
Is the most abominable
On mother earth.
Chichidodo, Oh, Chichidodo!
The elders of Africa have
Asked me to ask you
How, how can your worst
Abomination still be the
Habitation of your nutrition
and even of your inspiration?

Issue review:

Another year end
What does the future portend?
Will broken pacts mend?

News sense / Nuisance:

Disinformation
ruling communication
Depreciation
