Bad Poetry Monday

 Symbolless

by [REDACTED]


There are three cables
No, four
That appear intertwined
but aren't
Each one runs under or above the others
There are no knots
Signals and/or power 
are what pass through them
And they make no noise of their own
but somehow they can tell the 
collection of parts connected to one end
of themselves
to play music
or voices
to show me a pixelated image
of my dog as he looked last year
All plastic and metal
nothing more

Bad Poetry Wednesday

 MUG

by [REDACTED]


When light seeps down 
And noiselessness boils up
You find yourself staring softly at
The wonders of the world.
All seven ancient wonders 
And each one falls quicker than the last
Oops.
