Advisory for Adversary

The sun unfolds, precisely peeking through
the light of stars, dominating ink-spilled nights. 
Its rays graze softly on blooming wounds 
as sirens set off warnings of incoming dunes.

O vulnerable soul! I pray you stay quiet,
hold dearly onto the kaleidoscopic life 
slowly flowing out of your diluted sight. 
O transient time! I pray you stay still for

Adversary To Victory

I don't care much
I was born to be someone
Who can hold it by my own legs
Life is never equal to anyone
But we have the same mind
With the same two hands 
And determination to succeed
I consider trials as gasoline
For me to drive through miles
To where I want my life to be
Independence is carefree revolution
For me things

The Adversary

I am miserably in love with life 
despite the tragedy it seems
I can't be bitter or be broken
Even through my tears I still hold on to my dreams
All I have is who I am
Pain took my pride, and shoved my heart down my throat
But this is me, this is mine
Nothing can break my soul
I wake

Premium MemberThe Adversary

From my heart
There is a peace, a joy
That comes from believing
He is always with me,
He silences the worries,
Fills me up with hope and courage,
Inspires me to give away
All the love that He stimulates
With the grace that He provides

Grace that is so much - alive,
Like the dazzling stars at night
Like the sun who shines so bright
Like

Culicidae: a Fearsome Adversary

Haphazardly, yet dastardly  
Chaotic but organized, that bastard, he
With vengeance unjust and supersized
In an earthquake, he is the aftershock
You think it’s done, but wait! SURPRISE!
World’s rocked and socks knocked off
You can’t ditch this itch, what a crock!
Some may mock, but he is an iceberg
What you see seems just the average jerk
When underneath is all

Here lies Abercrombie Wellington Jones
   Under the flowers are all of his bones

Young people like to deface his gravestone
   Due to all the slaves Jones used to own

What An Adversary

What an adversary!
All threats thinking necessary,
Even involving an emissary
And claiming knowledge of Sorcery!

In front of my peaceful door,
Ranting and later swore
To with me wipe the floor
And after hurt me the more,
For sweat to break out from every pore
And I feel ill-will to the core …

In front of my receiving door
Quoting pains no man ever bore
That

Premium MemberMy Dog's Dreaded Foe

He sits and scratches 
	With endless scratching
They cover him in patches
	Hope they aren’t catching

He struggles with them
	Longing to destroy their eggs
They darken and condemn
	Creeping and crawling with long legs

He dreads this affliction
	Which comes to him often
Yearning for their eviction
	His heart would surely soften

He is the dog of my dreams
	Yet he begs and he pleads
For relief

Valor

Cold creeps
from swift whirlwinds
left me quivering with chattered teeth
and drenching with sweat.
Trumpeting;
foreshadow of war. 

There I was
aghast on the battlefield
accoutered with no armor or shield
and no cavalrymen to deploy;
ashen with fear.

Venomous arrowheads
seared me with scars
as a sword ravaged my heart.
I yielded in anguish
at the acme of predicament,
kneeling forth my adversary.

My soul roared with rage
as it

Might Marry My Adversary

Might Marry My Adversary

Suppose a certain person I should marry,
Who had turned out being my adversary,
After we proposed,
Each other opposed,
And the two of us were different and very.

Didn't realize that a husband marries a 
husband and a wife can marry a wife.,
With Pete Buttigieg and Rachael Maddow
I am learning a lot.

Adversary Rhyme

Little miss muffet sat on her tuffet
Alone with no one to play
Along came a spider that hid just behind her
Keeping well clear of the fray
Little jack horner who lived round the corner
Heard an ear piercing cry
With jack and gill his friends up the hill
They raced to find out just why
Jack fell down and broke his

The Adversary

The Adversary

He watched them as day passed upon day, peering upon the intimate scene,
As God communed heart to heart, one on one with the woman and the man the only
Beings where his likeness and image could be seen.

Garden beautiful was unguarded and free for all to enter;
He crept in dexterous in all his ways with
