Ashbird Stranger

Ashbird Stranger

I write poems. I simply wish to be chaos incarnate with word play & the idea to make someone else's day a little better as a typesetter & shoo away things that make you upset to make you an upsetter against the world's odds. (I take laudes.)

Marquette's Regret

Ashbird Stranger

1 min read

"To begin this exposition

about the ruler's disposition,

I must state my one ambition

is to say my soul opinion

and explain my one prevision

to enlighten our revision

on the prior king's decision

to have this heir in recognition

as king with his permission.


He is awful!


For his statements are fake,

promises half-baked

to the point you can't shake

every one mistake,

for there's only so much

a nat...

Ghouls and fools

Ashbird Stranger

1 min read

We live in a land where the footprints of ghosts linger.

We live in a place where wicked trees sway.

We live in a land where hags own the kingdoms.

We stand on a roof where dead kings lay.


You live in a land where strong knights fight.

You live in a place where children fly kites.

You live in a land which always sings rhymes.

You sit on a bench unadulterated by time.


We stand in a place where no...

Seeing Red

Ashbird Stranger

1 min read

Red floors, red skies.

Red carpet around where the body lies.

I'm doomed, I'm fine.

Killing someone isn't such a crime.

Never mind.

What a lie.


Like a fly on a web.

Worm crossing where people step.

I doomed myself, I didn't prep.

Like a buffoon, I only leapt.


Get ready, stay steady.

Already hid the machete.

Cleaned it from crimson.

But I can't clean myself,

not from a crime that's so petty.

To live

Ashbird Stranger

1 min read

The trees are a sea

and I cannot see

No one that exists

not someone like me


The frogs are singing

The silence is stinging

Only the animals will speak to me


Oh, what a wonder

Oh, such a wonder!

To wander endlessly amongst the trees

To fly in the breeze with the leaves

To bounce with the bees

In rythm, sing with the geese


And everyone turns to me

They think I'm insane!

Living my life like this

His glass vase

Ashbird Stranger

1 min read

A glass vase, a glass heart

Hollowed thing, hollowed art

A glass vase is my heart

A glass vase, made like art

His heart is a glass vase

His glass vase

makes my heart race

A glass vase

Artistic face

A glass vace

Oh, such grace


...


Fragile

Not agile

It's fragile

A glass vace is fragile

A glass heart isn't agile

A glass vace

A glass vace

My heart is a glass vace

His warmth and his grace

Makes my he...

The monsters

Ashbird Stranger

1 min read

The one in the corner looks at me

The one behind me speaks to me

The one beside won't let me be

But I won't believe it, no.


I hear their taunts

Their whispers call

Their figures gaunt

Their stature tall


But I will vaunt

The day they fall

I will prove false

These awful galls


And I will say

These monsters will pay

For with me, they shouldn't play


I will not be thralled

Nor will I repeal

This unw...

When roses die

Ashbird Stranger

1 min read

The earth will spin another day

Some people will cry

While others will pray


The clocks will tick

Their gears will click

Some people will watch

Others call it too quick


Night turns to dawn

Some mow their lawn

Most of them yawn

Others are gone


But, what about the roses?


Posies and lilies hold on to fame

Dandelions are known for their flame

Most flowers bloom with help from the rain

Most flower's...
