Cupid, 
God of immortal love,
Thy sharpest arrows for me
Prepare

For

Thy archery, on my aching heart
To practice,
Be accurate, I THEE, Implore

Because

I will die at once, If THEE miss 
The TARGET!

Arrows of Anger
Arrows of anger pierce my heart with their hate...one spark on the tip sets a nuclear blaze
Lost in a homicidal haze I'm looking for love
I'm surrounded by ravens...Where are the doves?
Now I twist and I turn
I'm playing the fool...as you fiddle I burn

Shooting arrows of...

Multicolored hands dissolved the pain, that rose within me
You were there; certain you'd win your part in the ring
Condescension became sparks I used as light to see
I held to my song you sought to silence, by your sting

Once again, your buzz faded and you fell...

Dancing Arrows
There was a time of love beneath plantation trees,
A time where I was young and beautiful and quite attached
to the woman in the mirror,
In fact I was doing just fine carrying her skin, 
Her leather-like skin breathing heavily beneath the Nevada sun,
And there he was….

Then...

Premium Member Broken Arrows and Wounded Hearts
Armies of men and arrows
Have conquered nations and great lands
Arrows sweeping through the air to make the living, tumble dead
The dead dance no more

A single wounded heart
Has conquered nations and great lands
A bitter heart worth more than one thousand arrows
One wounded heart shall make all...

Premium Member Burning arrows strike the target
What can we expect from a government denying God's plan 
that which speaks in parseltongue the language of snakes 
this which is a skill that converses through black magic 
Pretending to care it focuses on taboo subject matter 
how blind has become the darkness surrounding...

Slings and Arrows
I foolishly fell from a mountainous high only to land on a desert dry
Images of liquid lust within my emotive eye calcified to a crusted cry
Warning winds in delusory distance holding hurricanes of resistance
Conjuring catacombs of assistance within isolation of nonexistence	

The pensive pain penetrates as...

Quivers Full of Arrows
When a puny mind 
with no virtue of humility
Tries to reach the heights above 
But threatened by a fall into 
the depths below
A life with no intentional destiny
No bivouac 
No ideal but tedium 
Quivers full of arrows
But with no fixed target
An unforetold obscurity
A menace only...

Cupids Arrows
Cupids Arrows
Written by Catherine Reinke 


Chant our gods
“Play today
entertain us!
Amuse
away.”

All day long
up above,
contemplate mans
Folly.
Laugh
in love.

Boredom demands
our Gods be entertained.

Mans creators
have gone insane!

Perverted humor
at mans expense,
dance around, dance around,
black comic stench.

Cupids arrows, shot defiance
married bliss, their long reliance.

Isn’t it amusing to watch and stare,
cupids arrows
torment this...

Feathery Arrows
Deep in the feathered woods, my ancestors wait
 Ghostly haunting quite solace
 Lighted forest of there paths connect
 Soft light enters to sooth there souls


 Celeste beings shelter there comings
 My heart feels the sadness, they left behind
 Each eagles wing dance the heart canto...

Cupid, the Flirt

			By Charles G. P. Chard 2nd
			Chevra Gavri Hanita Hazaka Abir Selek 2nd 


Cupid drew back his bow once more,
And found my heart with his arrow,
You came into view, just past my door,
That threw me over a barrel.

My heat knew you would be the...
