Two Caught in the Draft of a Door Ajar
We're mannequins peering from a storage bin. We slouch across from the "No-Food" paper sign. Its message sags to a pulp taped to the shoulders of a glass door. Shoppers, incoming, their shared orange squirts juice. Our mannequin-custodial grins bar us from the lips' sweet 'oh'. Crowdsourcing emboldens shame, our French kisses hung on tangy wind chimes breezes tongue.....

Door Ajar, Open House
I went to my son’s open house last night Hand in hand to meet my ex, his mother His classroom was adorned with delight Doting parents greeted each other I held on to my son clinging with fright I listened to his poetry so purely innocent He wrote of birds, the sun, and his soul He wrote with such lightness only...

Secrets
Gently now, my sweet tell me the secrets you keep. What fashions the mystery you are? Whisper it, Love, with mind ajar. Whence cometh your charm abundant? I praise it such I’m often redundant. What put goodness in every pore? I partake of it, wanting ever more. What gives rise to your alluring smile? It’s a model’s asset, part of your...

Never Leave the Gate Ajar
B-eware of the devil, E-very door must be closed; L-ike a roaring lion he roams, looking for prey he likes most. P-adlock the main opening O-f your mind and your heart; N-ever let the evil enter T-o tear your soul apart. E-very hour you must be alert, N-ever lose the spiritual war; O-r you'll be...

Premium Member Doors Ajar Bar
Doors are used to come and go, To lock out and lock in Doors are not very welcoming. Doors ajar disquieting Half-hearted gap foreboding Door neither open nor shut is worrying Do your doors ajar become you? What do your doors say about you? Do you care? Others do? Because doors separate humans from apes What's mine is yours without doors Because laws outlaws gewgaws Open your...

Ajar
I hate to keep the windows closed No matter what the weather, ‘Cause fresh air’s a connection To the outside, like a tether. Apartment living has its flaws, The lack of space most glaring, But also, there’s no exit out To see how things are faring. Except the windows, which, to me, Must always stay ajar (Or open wide when temps outside Will let me...

Axed Ajar
AXED AJAR when the sky comes down where will your peace be when the ground trembles will you stand beside me pause with bated breath calm before the storm we’ve been waiting for blood red days at dawn as mortal battle starts in hearts of darkness where war fires flare amidst arid starkness without grim warning the sun will turn black sick earth axed ajar with explosive crack in...

The Door Is Left Ajar
I’m dancing without a care in the dark of night I need a shoulder to lie on and I need support as I fight the good fight Your goodbyes were reduced to lies Your farewells were wicked lullabies I can rise above this pain in my heart I’m falling apart in the dark of night I need some reassurance that I...

A Heart Ajar
A heart ajar a dream half seen in a chest whose lid was quickly fastened. A heart ajar a smile half delineated upon a flake of snow which in no time melts. A heart ajar a long beautiful sentence whose verb never dared to come out in the light. A heart ajar a poem half read before you reach its climax and touch its heaven. A heart ajar...

Ajar
How long ago did she lose her tears honest tears of sadness or joy a trusting heart lost for years pretend emotions now her decoy weeping heart captive and barred concealed essence slowly clears bound emotions begin to shard now feeling her inner guide showing her she should not fear her trusting heart will open wide when she finds her unshed tears...

The Door Is Ajar
Someone recently said something about, "the door is ajar" I scratched my head and challenged him, " A door is a door, and a jar is a jar... Where'd you go to school? How'd you get as dumb as you are?" He started to argue, But I'm too clever for that, Next he'll tell me, "Tell people to go s__t in their hat!" Now, who's...
