The Scientist

Polka dotted solutions of joy,
Euphoric bottles of blue,
Sets of candy coloured electrolytes
Send their electrons happily on their way.

Electro spectrum …

All operating by rules and theorems -
Content, without complications.
Rhythmic scratching of answers in my mind …
Solutions creeping up the spidery writing on the page.

Flowing logic …

Does nothing for the rosebush
Inside my cranial cavity.
All petals, love and thorns,
All so surreal, all so empty.

Without you …

Matter collapses suddenly, and
Formed a paradox that may or may not be there.
Insanity shows it’s gnarled claws
And holds hands with little Mz Loneliness.

Tormented sleep …

Tears like dewdrops -
Appear in the morning.
Evaporates as quickly as it forms
But it still leaves a stain on the atomic number.

Invisible …

Drifting through the calendar pages
Colour coded squares, tagged and died. Blur -
Filtered through sleep deprived eyes
Only awake every time I think I see you.

Motions …

Folding corners of your lips –
Entangled in a smile.
Directed at nothing in particular,
And everything you make me feel.

I miss you …
