Buzzard

Buzzard

Soaring up high
Free in the sky
Detached from ground
Watching for prey
Elegantly upwind find
Scanning ground
Food or threat
Free or just hungry
Dinner chased away
I wish I could fly
She wish she could eat

This common buzzard (Buteo buteo) and its mate flies over me several times when walking in nature. To spite me they stay in the sun or behind trees so I can’t get a clear shot. This time I managed to get this okay shot of this fantastic bird.

Ha de Gött!

Synapses

Synapses

Branches back and forth
Brain winding deep
Shadow, seeking sun
Cloudy contemplation, clear mind 
Winding down, blowing limb
Winding thoughts, mind blowing
Forced down, striving up
Dark synapses, bright ideas

Yesterday I posted a poem and picture of a winding tree. John Malone inspired me to write another today, thank you. If it doesn’t make sense, welcome to my brain. Check out more irregularities at ullehaddock.com.

Ladder

Ladder

He was climbing the corporate ladder. Working hard but only felt sadder. Didn’t care who he hurt. Every step was more worth. Office politics became his trade. He put up a perfect facade. Fast cars and a country house. Got it all, worked like a mouse. Everyone came for Friday beer. Not for love but for fear. Family and friends he neglect. To make the boss him select. Finally got his crown. Took to his chest and fell down.

Was his life a prank? All went to the bank. He made a blunder. Now he is six feet under.

Inspired by the TV-series Suits that we have been watching lately. The series is about a guy, Mike Ross, who by accident starts to work as a lawyer. Problem is that he never attended law school. One theme throughout the series is how the lawyers are more occupied by winning than justice. Also that all new employees are expected to spend long hours at the office.
