Up or down

Gut feeling needed

Decisions to make

Weights of pros and cons 

A blink or so

The stomach refuses 

To answer 

So where to turn

Upwards or the opposite 

Even keel is uneven 

But there is always 

dices of marbles 

And then you know!

to sider

Mit vindue er mit ydre vue 

hvad er der idag udenfor?

Mange træer i fuld flor

Min egen patio halvskjult

af parasollens skygge

min nabos to stole 

der aldrig bliver brugt

en skorsten som ligner 

et gammeldags togs røgrør

lortebrune plankeværker

omkring vores små verdener

en lyseblå formiddagsolhimmel

der viser - det er varmt

Mit indre følger ikke med

Hiding of cicada limerick

There once was a cicada from Maryland

Its seventeenth year arrival - quite a span

It mated, sated, and died

Its shell on the ground piled

its larvae went down the ground like beforehand

Lejlighedsdigt P

Der var en Poul fra Helsingør

han havde et tykt og langt rør

Han murede det endnu

for det kunne han sgu

70 tages med højt humør 

Smell the roses

Good news  - bad news from here and there

around the old whirling magnificent globe

willingly tittle-tattle or gossipy information

spread gazelle-like faster than ever

spurting and blurting without reflection

fare the stories of renown and fame

the believable and true well founded stuff

will give history a little chance except 

the antecedents were written by their victors

whereas an easy way to dig up the dirt

is as oil welly as can be - deep in the sand

lies the "clean" and  "perfumed" money 

  

 

May month of maybes

Mayflies last for only a few hours or days

so their lives follow the maybush' span

of being decorated with nature's garlands

of May Eve's dusk of chills and shadows

A reminder of mayhap fairies and beliefs

of netherworldly realms seeking influence

where the minions of mayweeds get picked

not for their beauty but for their healing 

so that a humble flower may bring soothing

and the nymphs may dance in the wind. 

  

The rope

Hangman's rope around my neck

( the imaginative actually)

sadness and anger becomes part

of my body's co-existence

nothing can be done physically

but psychologically I hit a block

my framework's skeleton

and its fillers react without doubt

so the shape is altered invisibly

outwardly it looks acceptable

but on the inside the cord 

has already been perfectly jerked
