short forms 10th June 2017

some hope
for happiness
should be allocated
Her future shouldn't be as bleak
as mine

morning rain
strawberries with slug holes
wasted harvest

jiu-jitsu trial
I realise I'm not very good
kidding myself
New guy at class
higher belt than me

my life
seems pointless
I am unrequired

I could die tomorrow
and no-one would mourn
for more than a fortnight

even the dogs would forget
