The Hunter

...She said I'm bored I think it's time I left
She hopped in her car, headed west 
She left him waiting and wanting more
At least she's pretty 
A shame she's a whore 
I can't say I blame her 
She ...

Premium MemberThank God For Me Stubbing My Toe

...How do you know what you know?
You know by stubbing your toe

Back to the future go
It’s epistemological

Is it all empirical?
Is it all observable?
I’m asking how

    At the stroke of midnight, werewolves come alive
       sharpening their nails and fangs, so their plans will thrive

    Witches too dust off their brooms, mount and start to fly

...
Each bedtime makes me a night-clown,  
Minty paste seltzers every tooth.  
Puppetry for sleep at sundown,  
Ends in a circus, dreams of youth.

Tamed at knee in dress of cotton,  
Each bedtim...

The Frightmare King

...What he’s capable of, I do admit, frightens me the most
My dread began in 2006, on TV his face did appear
The Burger King with the giant head is definitely morose

He lies in wait as y...

Homophone Love

...Each night I told you, “Dinner is served sharply at eight.”
But it was my heart on which you dined, that you ate.
I was never first, was never your number one,

Clash of Mind and Heart

...I have been struggling with a faded thought
until my mind's become confused and tangled.
At a crossroad, this battle is being fought
between my stubborn brain and wounded heart.
I've grea...

Halloween Ghost

...Locked in the frost,
Halloween seems like a gatepost, 

Fantasies turn into a permafrost,
Pumpkins next to the doorpost, 

Vampires at the rearmost,
Ghosts at the bedpost,
Wolves at the aftmo...

...Back when the strange appeared uncommon, 
I knew I was just beginning 
To scratch the surface of the truth.
So I got myself a shovel.

As I dug deeper, I discovered my scent so jaded
As to not ...

Premium MemberMisty Lake

...In the gray dawn, ghostlike,
A mist rises over the lake
Like a floating whisper.
My shorts and tee shirt 
Are damp and clammy
From hanging on the bedpost
Near the open window.
The dock is slip...

...On a day such as today
or any other numbered and limbered day
you may say to yourself that the birds are singing and the sky is blue.
It is you, however, who sing internal and ring eternal.

Brain Battle

...My racing brain doesn’t stop
It is fast, I wonder how long it will last
It moves in every direction,
Without any clear destination
It is past twelve
Maybe I will sleep at one
Tick tock,...

Premium MemberJust Another Cliche

...Only time will tell the outcome of this rhyme,
Whether it will succeed in the nick of time.
So better safe than sorry, as they say,
A good beginning makes a good ending, I pray.

Believer

...I wrote a long beautiful poem
poetically and inspirational all the way
to my friend who grants me comfort
is there to listen to whatever I say

I have been in the dumps
gloom is what I see out ...

Premium MemberTop Hat

...A toast.......
Of elegant swagger
From a "cocked" tail
On all four legs

With moves of
Fred Astaire, he graces
Your attention with
Haughty green eyes and a black satin jacket

Hi skits........
