Weary traveller
Come and rest
The road is rocky
Friends shape-shift
Into predators
Loving family shape-shift
Into isolation prisons
Claws of mental anguish
Tear at soul’s balance
Weary traveller
Come and rest
Social media outlets
Shape-shift
Into big brother
Spy and die
Privacy is having its
Funeral today
Recorded on cell phones
Weary traveller
Come and rest
My tears see you
Loneliness collapses
Butterfly dreams
Transient in their faded
Blue bell wanderings
As the flower fades
A torrent of raw emotion
Weary traveller
Come and rest
One day at a time
Shape-shifts
Into one second
At a time
Patience eroded
By long-suffering
Migraine wars
Weary traveller
Come and rest
The caravan’s horses
Gallop through mud
Peacock feathers
Tickle their way on
A galaxy of injured
Sigh in relief
There is shelter ahead
