Forward…
Towards…

Sunset

Avoiding traffic jams

Bags packed
Farewell said
Checked the gastap
Put todays newspaper
in the old-paper box
My key given to my neighbor,
So that she can
…water my plants…
…empty my mailbox…
…feed my cat…
…examine my world…
Locked the door

Headlights on

The skies
Golden delicious
Flamingos
Hunted down by fallen angels
Clad in black
Memories of a forgotten realm lighten their faces

Red yellow package
-odour of cotton, dry green-
Crumpled up
At my feet
Quiet noise from my radio

…your face…
…ethereal waves crash upon a golden shore…
…a long lost home nearly found…

Missed the red spot
A bull fooled by a toreador
Right foot down
Poor red yellow
Crushed further
My view on heaven torn
Long shrieks
Like metal, black

Deep breath
Blows
Heavy
Red yellow touch yet again

Heading… Forward… Towards…

You..?

Your poems are always so original and deep, the meaning i got out of this one is so very tragic and sad, but in another way i suppose nice, but i don't know another word for it. That was intensely deep for me, you say so much in such short lines, i learn alot from your style of writing, thanks for sharing.
