      Oct 10, 2022

      I walked down the road with a hunched back and a wet cigarette in my mouth—the fire had died a while back. My hands were tucked into the pockets of my jacket, and my hair fell over my face, limiting my sight. But I wasn’t really seeing where I was go

      Written by Alexander M. R. Smoljanovic.

      Dedication

      This second book would not exist if it wasn’t for my wonderful wife Pia

      This book is dedicated to her.

      Introduction

      There are answers to most questions that are routinely asked. The answers are never apart from the problem and are contained in the questions.

      One has to be willing to accept the answer to understand its reality.

      Some often ask the same question continuously until they receive the answer that suits them regardless of the truth.

      Loquacious Lair Of Poetry ties up loose ends left in the first book creating two more trilogies and a sequel opening the door for a third.

      The deep rhyming poems span various categories including Romantic Love, Fantasy, Fiction, Non-fiction, Sad and Dark, Fiction and Science Fantasy.

      Each poem comes with original art created for that piece. Each image is a snapshot of the animation that was created for the poem.

      My previous book is Illusory Realm Of Poetry.

      I Realize My Time Draws Nigh

      I realize my time draws nigh

      dwelling on memories amassed.

      I can't bring back although I try

      the chances I should not have passed

      Deep down I know it is too late

      to buy them back at any cost

      I shaped my life with love and hate

      My youth gone now forever lost

      Shadows of thought play then rewind

      to show me that no bridge was crossed

      I dredge my past to only find

      Recurring dreams my mind accost

      Daybreak has broken forth its light

      revealing eyes without a face

      A cloudy lens impairs my sight

      But still my life it can retrace

      At noon I see how much is gone

      and wonder why I did not try

      Now with disdain I tarry on

      Without a rhyme or reason why

      I Realize My Time Draws Nigh

      Accepting life as it is may be easier knowing you always made the best decisions possible. Being human is most likely the biggest reason that excludes us from that reality.

      Mentally playing movies of the past can negatively impact our lives and sometimes seem impossible to stop. Breaking the tape and refusing to jump on the train is usually the best approach
