Alphabet Dreams
A much belated entry to the Abcedarian challenge...
Awareness beckons callously,
casually dispersing ephemeral fragments–
forgotten ghosts haunting insecurities,
inconsiderate jesters,
juicy kisses lingering,
lustful moans. . .
Monsters–
nameless,
nocturnal ogres,
opportunistically prowling. . .
Preposterous quests,
questions raised,
rarely satisfied. . .
Spasms–
seductively teasing,
trembling uncontrollably. . .
Uninhibited violence–
vicious words,
wrathful xenophobes. . .
XXX yearnings. . .
Youthful zest.
Zany aberrations.

Spectating
I can't imagine dying like this, in a place like this; on a cold, dirty pavement with rush hour traffic screaming by and a crowd looking on while paramedics struggle to find space to move. Who could? Deep down we all think there should be a reason, a moment of clarity... or a family presence, at least. For this man, this boy, the rail thin woman lighting a cigarette in a faux fur jacket will have to do - she's been here since the start, her eyes tracking the movement of my shoulders as we fight to keep him on the right side of the line.

Beautiful imagery here, Lena, and better late than never!
I've had this dream before. I'm sure I have! Interesting abecedarian variation, Lena. Well done.
You took the challenge to another level, with repeats of each letter. Nice!
Loved those first two lines so much! Wonderful work, Lena :). And your image is beautiful 🤩
This is beautifully written. Well done.
