Premium Member Go Ahead I Dare Ya Breakup Poetry No One Should See
And He
my dearest
maturest mate to date
has bitterly regressed
to a child irate
from man of logic
to impish state
a hexer vile
filled with hate
while I don't believe
I've changed a bit
he thinks me evil
my mother split
as saccharin 
as the Harpie race
bewitching temptress
evil face
necessity
I do suppose
for his childish fit
to so dispose

Two Days Ahead
I must try and lead my dreams,
to where the lost and unforgiving answers,
rejuvenate their circle.

Two days, have somehow passed
and my eyes are half empty.

I still need to sleep.

Two days, ahead now
and my eyes are half full.

Hence, the satirical tear shed,
to hypothetically cleanse....

absolutely nothing....

Ahead of His Time
Young Shakespeare didst say to his tutor,
"Methinks I wouldst be much astuter,
And per chance, I wouldst say,
Mightest write a screen play,
If some fool wouldst invent the computer."...

One Step Ahead
Neil Armstrong shot off to the moon
Strapped into a cosmic cocoon.
He came to renown
When one foot went down
Ahead of poor Buzz -what a boon!


But as they returned to home base,
Buzz had a big smile on his face.
For there on the sea
Of tranquility
He'd aced the first...

The Road Ahead
The road ahead,
  opens up before me,
  suddenly, wide and wondrous and untraveled;
The trees rise high, stretching, inching higher,
  touching the sky and unseen horizon.
It is a blend of indescribable color,
  flowing profusely in the path along the way.
The air is...

Write like it's your last poem
  Sing like it's your last song
Love like it's your very first love

Weave through the day in a special...

I hail each  bronze, red, and blue coloured dawn,

as pulsing heart  mould torch flame of bliss,

to gaze across some awestruck mint sprig lawn,

that golden birthright never goes amiss


Eye beam urban verve one duly savours,

coruscating joie de vivre street life,

bursts of swift dash coffee’s...

Premium Member The Steps Ahead
. . . and with a haughty drink 
of Virgil’s water 
from the River Lethe
I venture forth knowing nothing
bring on the steps ahead 
and what awaits . . .

but the waters have a taste
and some things feel familiar
a few of the steps ahead
look like my...

Premium Member A Few More Miles Ahead of Time
I often wonder if it’s worth the effort 
with a keyboard or paper and pen
to pour out my thoughts, heart, mind and soul
from the ocean and rivers within   

The marrow in my bones 
hidden deep within these veins
“This universe is a miracle,” 
I’ve...

Premium Member Still a Brave New World Ahead - Cloning, Eugenics Not Dead
Is government control of humans’ birth, aging, and dying
In century 26, as practiced by a new World State;
Different from 20th century’s use of eugenics,
Which used “fitness” to determine people’s reproductive fate?

A high-tech London, where humans’ material needs are met,
Setting of Aldous Huxley’s, Brave New World,...

          red tide comes ashore

dead fish waste on sand
    gulls peck at infected food...
