The Frost Bitten Leaf
O last withering leaf hold on to the bough
Whatever be the terror caused by the lightning
       Whatever the ruthless winds may avow
            Your glory lies in waiting until...

Tightly closed, the petals warm
the autumn heart that summer lost ~
a blackened bud, once struck with cold
      appears to others dead,
but burns within - a passionate soul,
and heart of bright and crimson red!...

You move your body
but you can’t  change your mind
To many broken bits
It’s your choice to waste your time
You wish and you want
to finally be fine
Penny for thought thinking
another glass of wine

You hide behind screens
Blinded by your bliss
Nothing could be better 
Than your imagined kiss
A...

Bitten By September
Forbidden to remember
Terrified to forget
She is bitten by September
As the rising sun sets

He sinks his teeth into her cold, lifeless flesh
As what is almost breaking is her very last breath
The agonizing fire courses angrily through her veins
She would do most anything to stop it, the...

Bitten Lips Don'T Stand Alone
Common among us may not be everything
With some love, some hate, some passion, some disdain.
But when our hearts ignite inside
To a happy memory, a simple smile, 
Or when we gently tap our feet to the beats of a rhythm-
We feel that one united fire.

So I’ll...

"Gold Bitten"

delinquent minds 
call the creative in
gold bitten terror bites

he thinks he’s a poet
she thinks of other things
not so equivalent

she thinks she’s a brevity
he believes he’s a harlequin
the point mute and hammered in

golden words delivered
shining against the banished burnished
flowing in the unleashed freedom

Poor Frosty’s carrot had unfroze 
Quite useless for a snowman’s nose
It looked such a sight
Bending to the right
Looks like a limp ‘dong' I suppose

So frosty visited his doc
Said his carrot looked like a limp ‘sock’
It’s gone soft and looks pink 
Kinda looks like a shrimp
Kid’s...

Bitten
I awake with an unquenchable hunger
Hot bodied flesh is now all that I crave
I'm destined to be another zombie
A nightmare from beyond the grave
 
My appearance is beyond hideous
I walk with a wandering sluggish stroll
I am only able to make a raspy gurgle
To eat another's...

Boy Bitten By a Crayfish



When women seen with no powers to create

Vessel to feed male seed for generations

She could make images live and update

Both of procreation and creation.



Once drew a painting of a laughing girl

Sent to Michelangelo to review

Quickly returned the painting with a hurl

There once was a lion so dread
His trainer must keep him well fed
For if this bad lion
Got hungry for Brian
Old Brian might just end up dead!

Ole Leo the lion acclaimed
Like to play the “I’m so sweet” game
Slow Brian was lulled
And his arm it was culled
Now,...

Bitten!
What malevolent thing
with intrinsic sting
attacked me
a few short days ago
whose coming and going
a mystery?
Doctor says it's a bite
but it stings alright
I was laid low

Tablets, gel and a pack of ice
"keep it up" was the advice
I hobbled about the place
my leg on show
an inconvenient episode
and painful?
Very...

Once Bitten, Twice Shy
I often recall the days of past 
When love was deep, strong and vast 
The abundance of dreams once forlorn 
Deep inside me, all reborn
He opened my heart to things obscure 
Showed me passion true and pure 
He unleashed the me that longed to be...
