Appetitive Poems | Examples


Premium MemberParents

Parents, the keepers of the door to this amazing universe..

To them I am a fragile sapling, staked for its own good. Protected from sweet kisses, funny and salty, somber and delicious.

Parents, those figures of authority - from whom our true lives are kept.

Protect me from scars no deeper than a blush, from rustles on a soft battlefield, caressed curves, tousled hair and appetitive breaths of each others air.

Parents, who guard against loves bombardment, the persistent courtship. Giving ground in slow but immense movement, like those of continental plates.

Parents, whose power will fade with no more cause than time, gentle as mist, as powerful as a waterfall.

-long Before Time Ago-

WORLDS AND WORLDS OF TIME AGO AND BEFORE

   IN EONS AND EONS OF MOMENTS OF LIVES

   HAVE INHABITED, ON AND IN WORLDS OF WORLDS AROUND,

   RESIDED IN WORLDS OF SEAS IN EMBRYONIC STATE

   COMPLETED AND VIED WITH CRUSTACEOUS OBSCURITIES

   DID DINE AND WAS CONSUMED IN BONELESS APPETITIVE ZEST

   ROMPED AND CAJOLED AT PALAELITHICAL STAGES

   ABIDED WITH THE GODS IN SPACES OF YORE

   AND SOARED AS ETHEREAL BEING'S WITH WINGS OF ETHER


   DONNED SUITS OF ROBOTIC CLOAKS OF ARMOUR

   SURVIVED ELECTRICAL BARRAGES OF PERSECUTING CONTROL

   DELVED IN SUBTERRANEAN HEWED CAVERNOUS CHAMBERS

   AS ASTUTE EGOISTICAL TERRIFIED SCIOPHOBICAL MORTALS

   TRUDGED VAST GLACIAL AND TURBULENT TORRID MORIBUND PLACES

   COPULATED WITH ABORIGINAL NATURED SOULS

   ROMPED WITH FREE ABANDON O'ER ALPINE HEIGHTS

   THOUGHT POSTULATED, THOUGHT MADE ALL POSSIBLE

   LONG BEFORE THIS WORLD WAS CREATED, I WAS.
