oh yes , I'm overwrought
I have lost all I have sought
I lost the land that I loved
And the man I adored
I lost everything I bought
I lost my God I lost my lore
And yet I am still here.
And though I know it's all for nought
I am ever hopeful.

What has a truck stop cinnamon roll
wrought within me? I extoll
with a wild Huzzah!" and "Yop!"
this delectable confectionery. Sop
sugary goop from my two-day bearded
chin, eyes bleary, vision receded
from only the road in front of me.
A child's smile is mine. I find my glee.

Orison

Rebar as you may know
Is manufactured of
Steel and has quickly become
A staple of my sculptural building and
Installation occupation I am even now in
The middle of a project design where
It features prominently in establishing
The basic structure to hold a
Year’s collection of plastic
Bottles, jugs, and containers
And give me a bit of fenced in yard
For doggo to enjoy while granting
The neighbors yet another reason to
Look at me askance and the little
Chapel attendees to clasp their
Hands prayerfully while
Looking heavenward
Saying sotto voce
“My God, what has she
Now wrought?”
I’m so excited

I’ll carry
The bones
That could not
Be set.
The askew,
The rough
Hewn
Storm
Brought
Limbs
That once
Held the
Moon
In all it’s
Gravity
And now
Are rendered
Helpless
To what
The tides
Wrought

The Eiffel Tower
a wrought iron masterpiece
La dame de fer

Tall and slender
with high ambition
reaching for the sky

I am overwrought;
My strivings for irony
have come to naught.

Heart of wrought iron
Immortalised by beating
A skill in the craft

I could only smell the fried chicken
Tongue probing sutures in my gum
Pre-chewed mashed potato cud for me
And bitter coffee, too cool to steam.

The spawn’s usual chatter stilled
Replaced by crunchy consumption
Meanwhile, reliable knees with
Falling pressure pain reported rain.

If ever sweet custard gets it’s day
My life in gelatinous array
What time has wrought will rust away
While stories echo singing in my mind.

Let’s call this one “Reflections Upon Returning from the Dentist”

One Day

A tower of books
Pierces the violet sky
Clouds spell out “one day”

A silver-winged horse
Watches me through eyes of ice
The earth, mirror-like

An ancient oak tree
Wrought from emerald and steel
Observes an ending

#MastoPrompt #Wrought @tanweerdar #SmallPoems #Poetry #MicroFiction #Haiku #SmallStories #SciFiPoem

Wrought

this endless toil
in safety's lure
that keeps us bound
to fears of past

a jail of soul
built brick by brick
to daily wrought
a heart of stone

He stared at the lines on his face
Forged by the persistence of time,
While he slowly ran his fingers over them,
As did the grey haired stranger in the mirror.

And as he thought back over his life
At all the joys he dismissed
His face fell into his gnarled hands
And he wept.

#wrought #Mastoprompt

An amalgam of two
Fused in one forge
Forming unique innateness
Becoming its own

Ripped from the oven
Instant oxidation
Quenched, checked, and tempered
The blank is ready

Ready to be beaten
#wrought into shape
Stuck between
The hammer and anvil

The smiths could stop
And call it a day
Hang up their aprons
And go out in play

A true master knows
The piece must he sharpened
Polished and honed
Respected and corrected

For this child grows
And wants to be
Be your side
Forever more

I don't know which asshole #wrought
The complex tax system we got
But it's all geared to the rich
And companies make sure that we pitch
Hours towards working it out
They hope we'll give them a shout
Our tax info to them pass
And afterwards pay out the ass
For them to go through all the works
But that's their whole business, the jerks
They bribe Congress every year
So this process isn't clear
And then the poor people mock
Fuck Intuit and H&R Block

My life is slipping away
Cricket will do that

Insecurities wrought havoc in his life,
confidence shook at an early age.
He tried to pretend but,
he wasn’t a good storyteller
emotions mapped out for all to see,
like a billboard,
or a scrolling marquee.

Blacksmith bends and bows
Wrought iron twisting turning
Masters of their craft

@tanweerdar
We are vessels, base elements
And primal chemicals, wrought
In the furnace of ancient into
Living sentience, but never
Understanding what made us,
Nor what we are, and love is
An unexpected reaction of these
Strands of acid never meant to
Be mixed, never intended to be
In contact with eachother, and
The explosion vivid and out of
Control, and final.
