Elementaly Despondant and pondering


from the ABC set Unordered Tales

Precipitation without life's synthetic

Multicoloured eye piercing shields

Is simply wet and cold

An encumbering inconvenience

To another mundane day

It's lemon drop melt

It's pensive pooling into iridescent dilute expanses

Is an embellishment by the otherwise content

Adornment of the conscious

Those that countenance crashing waves

That temper shore and seduce valiant rock

Have never meandered the weed-pocked pathways permeated by the stench
of seweage outlets

Nor been pinned by force of nature to said intrepid geological
wonders

Beneath the cerulean depths lay precipitous swathes of deleterious
bile

Contaminated aquatic life and a mountainous compass

Of sufficient discarded shopping trolleys and man's varied debris

To breathe new life and concept to otherwise placated fish

Yes, when life's, being is lifted momentary from this ruinous sphere it
may patter its appeasing rhythm

Oceans will rise to pendulous pinnacle

But for how long?
