If either player abandon the game by quitting the table in anger, or in an otherwise offensive manner; or by momentarily resigning the game; or refuses to abide by the decision of the Umpire, the game must be scored against him.

Waiting For The C

The death sentence
received
there's no reprieve
in palliative care
but quite resignation
and private tears
death is imminent.

Small Flowers

The familiarity of a flower is so small,
I love to admire and drink this alcohol.
I may at first be appalling, so splendid,
Yet now the mother in you is abdicated.

Never in this mind of a lovely lady
Do I see applause, like the raining indecency
Of a mild season, one of the efforts,
May appalling weather have comforts.

I've analyzed the best I can... and I have not found an impeachable offense, and therefore resignation is not an acceptable course.

Reading is an activity subsequent to writing: more resigned, more civil, more intellectual.

I Begin To Think

Abdicating the shadows;
totemic.
I return back to dig up the buried-
moon from the ruins of poetry.

It benumbs.
No response was coming from
cajoling the black secrets-
of time-cast.

A storm was raging in a pack
of emptiness. Like a dead fly
between the pages of skulls.
I couldn't find the exact words.

The religion of wish-lists.
Can you find the end of desires?
From thought to thought-
was there any vision?

A sense of duty is useful in work, but offensive in personal relations. People wish to be liked, not be endured with patient resignation.
