Tarot ~ 5 of Swords
1.
Empty Victory. Swords
cooled down.
We shake our sleeves
as circus clowns
in hope to hear
a rooster claim
of owning the world
of sun & sovereignty;
at least to hold
the scepter to stamp
a new rule:
‘execute-no-pardon’
cock-a’doodle-doo!

ReplyDeletelabor for all and collaborate...ha.. never realized the potential for wordplay in this... and it would be cool if there was more collaboration
ReplyDeleteReally brilliant rhythm here.. Collaboration actually contains labor, and it start with ourselves..
ReplyDeleteGreat connection with the images, both… Enjoyed
ReplyDeletehaha a rooster crowing as all want to be heard. Shame we all just can't collaborate
ReplyDeleteI do believe the rooster shall rule!
ReplyDeleteSome real imagination in these lines.
