Pay No Attention To the Man Behind the Curtain
Blissfully ignorant and supine,
Lost in the economy line,
voters don’t have a clue
that liberty is through.
Apathy dictates all else is fine.
People keep telling me how foolish I am,
but frankly I don’t give a dam.
I’m going to tell you what I see.
You don’t have to agree with...

Premium Member Quiet Attention
Together we would whittle sticks while chewing juicy gum

We would find a place to rest beside a river green and wide

The skies were blue, and tall grass would grow, and brush against my knees

Where willow trees, and dusty trails and nesting squirrels would hide

With tackle...

************Please Have Fun & Read VERY Closely:)***********


now and again
a word 
sneakily obscure
approaches the fog in me
screams its name 
suddenly 
apropos adverbs appear
clearly 
startling 
perplexing 
precarious adjectives
slick little nouns
caught hiding 
beyond babbling brooks
sent to exile
defiling crooks
"pro"fessional nouns
jailed
beneath eight parts of speech
preposition'ed 
pre'fixed...

It's Your Attention To Detail
Gentle caresses sweep my skin
with creeping tenderness,
devouring every curve of my body
and feeling its sizzling melt 
against your skin.
Your loving gaze enters my soul
striking away all attempts 
to keep the padlocked
heart and mind 
shuttered from any harm.
Your finger tips tantalize 
my womanly form
raising delightful awareness.
You...

Just when she thinks the coast is clear
In walks the ghost with a smile and a can of beer
“Come over here - let me tell you a story”
“Sit on my lap - you don’t have to worry”
“Do as I say and it won’t be...

Attention Poet Destroyer!
Hello my friend! Where do I begin?
I hear that your posting has come to an end.
I understand that you might want to take a rest,
Even though the soupers enjoyed your poems the best.
I would love to hear an explanation,
Not that I have any expectations,
But I...

And from the tree of knowledge, a serpent slid into view 
He’d seen it all before, our future he already knew 
Moses on some mountain, taking down the tablets god drew
Jesus climbing Calvary, being mocked by fellow Jews 

Later history repeats, Galileo scanned the sky...

Premium Member Not Paying Attention
I took it all for granted. 
The sky, the stars, the wind, 
the flowers, the grass, the trees.

I expected to see my friends every day.
It was boring, dull, 
humdrum, if you please.

So here I am, in my mediocre mind-set, 
walking to a friends’ house, not...

Sitting quietly, breathing in and out
Centred presence feels blissful and complete
Bliss strobes within let out a silent shout
Our vaporised self’s awash at God's feet

Time ticks away but we are oblivious
Grazed by bliss mists, we feel its benign burn
Ignition within is continuous
This play is enacted in...

Hey you reading this lend me your eyes and ears.
