Turbulence of slumber worrying the soul
Stressful in nature building up to a storm
Tussle in a bedstead not as bad as sold
Simmering bleary eyes spewing venom

Sleep fast quit quibbling on trivial matters
Lullaby through strains of moving clouds above
Extending a probe to calm nerves disturbed
Repulsive to stomach best not be involved

Cut out the bad intentions cast to the winds
Malevolent in thoughts scavenging for victims
Poetic justice has a way to redirect consequences
Perpetrators can expect misdeeds to be seen

  1. i like the energy in this hank...its driven by some strong verbs in the beginning there....and i can hope that karma catches up to the perpetrators, you know....

  2. Revenge is easier to calculate in dreams..but it does come around...eventually..the rain clouds part and someone gets deservedly soggy!

  5. Dumb crooks pay, right Hank. I could not sleep either if I had done what some do. I felt things building up here, I liked the 'turbulence' and 'tumble' idea to start with and how you worked with it..

  6. Hank,
    A badly disturbed night can be annoying, yet, there are times when meaningful thoughts are revealed!!

  7. I wish everyone would take your advice and quit quibbling about trivial matters. Life is too short for it, but this poem strikes me as just right!
