The Craving Scoops of Cream- Based On Strawberry Ice Cream
Fresh and flavourful organic strawberries
Ground with the berries of our hearts,
Do blend with majestic creams
To celebrate this sweat-pouring afternoon
With a nice dish which feasts tongues.

This dessert is both life-giving and life-threatening;
She strengthens our heartbeats
While touching our taste buds;
And kills our precious lives
When she reaches only...

So glorious high mountains;
Fruitful green valleys;
Pearl floral green aqua waters;
O God you, just you created these...
How do you Father;
How do you;

Gracious skies blue and white;

Moneylender (Poem Based On Shylock; a Character From Merchant of Venice)
Moneylender 

You were rejected by your fellow man
A pound of flesh to heal your wounded pride
A just reward for squelching on a loan

Your hatred toward these men-- I understand
Burns deeply in your heart and it resides
You were rejected by your fellow man

They bully you, so...

Based On Belief
From vast emptiness, 
imagination is formed 
which births a substance.
  Reality is a seed of 
imagination based on 
belief which becomes a 
substance,for what is and 
what is not are based on 
belief.
   How do we really know 
if who we call...

A Note To Self - Based On India Arie's Song - Get It Together
A Note to Self
You and you alone 
can make the change
in your life to make it
brighter! 


Self
Self you need to try a different angle
Years of trusting the wrong person
Has left you frazzled and depressed

Enough
Enough self-inflicted wounds on your heart
Cease the long waiting to exhale
Stop blaming...

Premium Member A Mercenary-Based Acquaintance
A young pretty lady, seeking company from an unknown
and to the hospitality of my open arms, she quickly lodge.
A stranger still remains an alien until some acquaintance is established
seeing what is right in front of me, such a feeling was purged.

Sweet conversation, chilly atmosphere and...

Unforgettable-Based On Silent One's Poem
One day I decided to go and sit in the park.
I sought fresh inspiration and a new muse!
My decision was the perfect panacea done on a lark.
In no way would my spirit this time me refuse!

I sought fresh inspiration and a new muse.
Out of nowhere...

Limousine Ride (Based On Comfortably Numb Scene From "the Wall")
Slashed lines’ frequency extends 
Neon-freckled wormhole ride 
Unstable tide rocks the set 
Slashed lines’ frequency extends 
Ivory starlight, synthetic decay
Shape distorting abyssal cry
Slashed lines’ frequency extends 
Neon-freckled wormhole ride...

Sympathy For the Devil- Based On William Butler Yeat's the Second Coming
Burning and burning in the widening grave. 
My hero ends cannot hear the hero;
Foes fall and get pulled apart, this card is centered in my fold. 

Named anarchist, as released upon the world. 
This was before blood-dimmed for every vessel, and everywhere.  
Before heaven's...

Relations Based On Money
There used to be time where relations had the at most value.
There used to be times when people valued people!
There used to be times where people fought for each other!
These days we have times when people fight with each other for a penny called Money!
Values...

They Have Made Life Money Based
I have toothpaste because I paid money.
I watch TV for the same reason.
And this money thing is far from funny:
Without it you are as in a prison!

I have polish that I also have bought.
Water, power,...are all obtained for cash!
All existence seems to be by man...

Premium Member You Complete Me
My eyes
 Look for you
My heart
 Bleeds the truth
My Spirit
 Enters your soul completely

Your heart

Bled for me upon that tree
Loved me each second

When my 
Mind and heart were far away

 My soul 
Was dry as cirrus clouds
Empty
Being blown over desert land
Without
Hope or promise

My being
Without fruit
Or
Filled...
