Premium Member Oops - It's a Bit of a Cock Up
Ted enjoys a quick roll in the hay...
He’s sleeping with his buxom P A
She confirmed she’s with child
Ted baulked, then got quite riled
I wonder what his wife’s got to say!

5/26/18...

Inside such dreams of never lasting days
We traversed such wanting thoughts in emotional astray

On that December night, to our cottage on the hill
Where on many a moonlit walk, we allowed our thoughts to spill

Our footprints of life we took in threaded tread we walked
When one...

Premium Member Apollo and Daphne by Bernini A collaboration with Di11y Da11y


We start at the end, with the warmth of his breath on her skin
Baulked by proximity, he never knew how to begin
A golden-tainted obsession, bitterly laced with lead
Transformed rapture to quicksilver the instant Cupid fled

A moment held, made static, tender touch met with distress
For seeded...

Abstracts Are Never Absolute
He deems the ways and dares to understand,		
a measure of a love that went astray,
from libelled forces, which compelled his hand,		
to lies, and morals left to slow decay.

No one forgo or risk refute her right, 
a stubborn choice is seldom steered by sense.
To cease callow...

Ron desperately wanted to have a girlfriend
He’d looked after his old mum right till the end
Ron was a tall and extremely attractive guy
Unfortunately poor Ron was so terribly shy 

He saw a poster in a window for a single’s night
There’d be lots of ladies, it...

Take me away with your eloquent talk
Tell me news about my ideology
Show me the opportunities baulked
Smile at my unsaid apologies 
Put me into scheme where I’m just a screw 
Within a machine that makes war
Stereotype me with anything you
Distinguished about times before
Your precious guidance is...

Premium Member A Diamond In the Rough
Kobey is a Diamond, who despite his verbal trials
Got taken to a courthouse, for he baulked at dingos wiles
He lost his rag, he'd grabbed his phone; he swore he'd
Had enough, he rolloked the state premier; said life was
Tough enough, he e-ffed at him and made...

A Deadly Game
Just to share an incident caught on video clip.....
About one very tragic accident no parent could possibly  forsee....
Good thing  we've social  media to educate you and me... 
A moment of harmless fun between a son and his father..
An instant later, the ...

The Village Ritual
We groomed him to perfection
lured him with our lights
cooed him with our sizzles
blurred his dreams and sights
We slotted him in awkward
hampered his imput
laced his drink with moonshine
on his fingers shut
We cautiously immersed him.....while his mind involved
then cut him in slow motion.....as our pills dissolved
Goons staggered...

Welcome To the Underworld
A victim of the streets

She's one of the homeless,

A victim of society

She left the broken home,

Try as they may there was no fixing it,

Her parents deciding, to go their own ways,

She turned to drugs and drink

And lost control,

They said was nothing they could do, now...

Premium Member A Savage Stroll
A Scotsman sat on a thistle,
If it was a flying missile,
He would have seen it in the air
The prickly thistle just sat there
It didn't even need to whistle.

This Scotsman's name was Jock,
Every morning at 8-o-clock
He took his puppy for a walk
Suddenly the puppy baulked
'Cos he...

Frustration
I am desperate, and demoralised, I don't know what to do,
What will be my very next step; I have not the faintest clue.
From street to street in search of work, tirelessly I have walked,   
Because of innate diffidence, success has repeatedly baulked.

Born less...

Sixtyfour
The charisma of his car eclipsed ambition,
By a margin that defined his wife's contempt,
It became a precursor to superstition,
That he'd lose some race from which he was exempt.

As his ego baulked at masculine pretentions,
While his Missus cringed at alcohol-free beer,
The addiction of his sixty-four abstentions,
Were...

Graveyard Argument
Graveyard Argument


"Today's people are not at all cowards
"They don't fear treading graveyards
"Though' wisdom of the dead we cherish
"To fear the dead makes us all perish
"To shudder in front of the cold dead
"Is banging walls with one's soft head!"

"Your mind must be miles away so lost
"To...

Tv Cowboy
He rode his horse side saddle
Across the rolling plains
Scarlet polished finger nails
Gripping diamantéd reins
A little cocktail hat 
Resting on his head
Dingly dangly earrings
Sparkling ruby red.

This dandy of the cowboys
Dressed to impress one and all
Showing off his finery 
On route to the Ranchers Ball.
Beneath his jeans...
