All Tasks Poem by Doris Cornago

All Tasks



Life
Starts at
Early Six am
Ends sometime
Near Six, so there
Starts and ends a
Day of traipsing on
Winged feet, or riding
Half naked like Godiva
On a fleet white steed
Skirmishes on dark nest
Will-o-wisp, merry crispy
Wafflemaker malfunction
Spreading with oily brush
Coffee, tea or instant oats
Marking map for demolition
Audio on full, where's Don
Wave the white flag, done
All tasks, don my tea mask
Slack on slack, hurrying up
Defrozen pack, saucing up
Dock on microwave dollop
Diminutive familiars in gym
Brandishing familiar brand
Mr. Sunshine Netflix brine
Maintenance maim game
24-hour shield concealed
Loving the lap sans gap
Powering 4-hour naps
Storm surely's coming
Pagasa on prediction
Laundry on location
Apollon viral doom
Safe makes sense
Predilection burn
Mixing margarita
Leisure ensure
Shatter shards
Pixel pleasure
Outed umpire
Mystic spire
Messy mix
Photos
Prix

POET'S NOTES ABOUT THE POEM
Life is how you make it. You make your own bed and lie on it. You often hear these ages-old sayings but do not really take their meanings to heart until you are on the spot and you do what you can to survive. And thus, you know how much you love life, all the perks of it, like on a buffet spread, pick what you will, knowing the consequences and blaming no one. My philosophy in life is "live and let live". This is my epiphany, what's yours?

When I read your poems I feel like I'm caught in a whirl! It's perfect!

By the way, the poem contains words which come from my arsenal of newly found rebranded action words, culled from daily usage so cannot be considered cliches. I am a gameplayer and a poet as well, which make me well qualified to transform experiences into words, and vice-versa, making gaming and poeming part of my unique existence.

You plan, then comes a glitch to your neat plan, and you improvise. Stop dillydallying or you lose the game. Then you realize, things were better unplanned as you end in a place with another man who constantly amazes you. This is life on the blockchain future, unalterable and transparent. Whether you stay or disappear, all your legacy remains.

My philosophical offerings are in my poems. They do not include cliches.

Good for you, my friend. Sometimes we just take what life dishes out and roll with the blow. Thank you for coming, Robert. This is not a cliche, :)

You can just be an insect placed in this rocky barren location to be observed as an experiment. So, what's the best way to survive? Pray, pay - or play? It does not take long with your natural intelligence that the best recourse is to seek a course of least resistance and blend in the background - and learn. Life is learning. Insects and other forms of non-vertebrates have lasted long due to that knowledge. You are human - shouldn't you be better equipped?
