Lightening
by Percules The Poet
Not many things in life tend to get me real excited.
But I get so high that I am flying.
I could go on endlessly page after page just writing.
My demons everyday I am fighting.
I make them disappear like they are lightening.
Everything will have its own timing.
Every fire first has to be ignited.
I will be the one to light it.
If you want my time you have to buy it.
Solve your problems instead of wasting your time crying.

After the funeral
by Sharon Morgan
After the aroma of the floral displays of the day
The seamless trail of cars in tow
Accompanying the shiny black hearse
Which proudly transported
An honoured guest
In a coffin that was like no other
Preceding an entourage of fellow mourners,
Tissues wiping tears from sullen faces,
A glimpse caught through the reflection

When I Am Up (for Mental Health Month)
by B4 n/a
When I am up, every sky is a boundless, cloudless expanse of brilliantly blinding blue.
When I am up, I am William the Conqueror and William Shakespeare and William Jennings Bryan all in one.
When I am up, life is an eternity of perfect days punctuated by soul-shaking truths at every turn.
When I am up, every person I meet is a fount of infinite expectations.
When I am up, my momentous happiness is so moment-to-moment that if I look away for but an instant I might miss it all.

ILT (20/11/2018)
by Hendrico Valentijn
A multitude of fortnights passed us by,
We passents of time, our sorrow, we tried.
A spell of brief written touches.
Time and space were arranged.
The earth turned and turned.
Time and space were burned.
The wind ceased carrying sound.

Rain
by Emily G
Sweetness fills the air
Falling clouds creep towards us
We become more aware
the light fades around us
Boom
Light tries to break free
It’s calling to us
Only if I could foresee
its quieting down
