Two poems

Let me know what you think!

Principles of prey

Between the big black and white
Lies the sneering grey
Apologies accepted
but they do tend to forget
Embrace the freedom
To eat all that you say
Diffused will radiate
Unwanted will be shed
When your final hours
Just another part of the day
Last thoughts too impressionistic
I painted the streets red
Stray to far from the flock
Are the principles of prey



Lost

Can you please shake my hand?
I forgot where i am
I think i need directions
for i am a simple man
Caught off-gaurd by reflections
And it didn't go as planned


I have just lost the track
I was supposed to travel
In the old forgotten train yard
Watched my future unravel
It was grim and will be hard
But i don't want to go back

I like the Lost one.
I need 85 more characters and counting down.Why we measure things with such silly numerical values the soul will never understand.

Thank you. And indeed, all those extra characters to say you liked it or me saying thank you, are a little bothersome

Interesting Principles of Prey; Lies the sneering grey - excellent line, and I like the visual impressions.

Although Lost was very very good. I like that one! Where I am, a simple man.

I simply love the 2nd one....would love to hear it turned into a song
