Premium Member - Dark Brainstorm -
Being strong is his only option
Satisfaction is not always the fulfillment of what you want
when you gets stuck in an unwanted situation
Witch hunting and lynsjing
He loses control and it makes him desperate
The bitterness has taken over, as a development of a toxic virus
Bile from the...

Premium Member Brainstorm
From an insufferable, unceasing rain of disappointment,
I try to hide my scars under the cloak of a smile.
Alas, this master of disguise, fools but one.
My dreams are like a reverent prayer
that's lost its relevance to love.
Shrouded in ominous clouds of deception,
I am a refugee of...

Premium Member A Poet Must Brainstorm
" . . . madness . . .  retain,
Which rightly should possess a poet's brain."

Michael Drayton (1563-1631) 


a writer of poems must be quite mind fractured-
we brainstorm the abyss of our thoughts

Premium Member Brainstorm
a diabolical grace ...

dark, deep, warm-black arms of
an endless night wrap me ...
head thrown back in abdication -
arms spread wide in surrender,
falling backward, back, back, onto a
hard dogwood blackness ...
nails of my own stark weakness
fasten my hands to a
weighty tree of terrifying introspection ...

poison saturates...

Brainstorm-Finding Abigail
Finding Abigail

“Abigail! ~Abigail!...where are you, my love?
I can’t see you, nor smell you, let alone touch you…”

A nebulous cloud encroaches the corridors of mind,
Where a fallacious hope seeks its refuge in silence.

“Abigail! Is that you? I thought I heard someone talking…”

Disembodied voices revel throughout the...

Premium Member Brainstorm Colors
Waking, she inspects the color under her sweater
and sighs that vague orange is still wearing her.
Orange can’t be her friend until it reveals its core.
While white is already a friend, the floating ones
aloofly speak of odd concerns she cannot pattern.
At times, float-whites hear, but never...

A Brainstorm
I want my anger
In the dark of the night it protects
Nourishes 
Provides
It is useful 
It keeps me wary
Ripe
Watchful 
Without it I will crumble 
And be reduced to smallness 
softness
sadness
I need my anger
It makes me a woman 
Feral 
Untamed 
Fierce 
Anger faces unflinching what  
Would...

Premium Member Unanchored Life In Brainstorm
The hidden blueprint of destiny encoded in gene
manifests in marvels of anthropogenic evolution,
constructs shifting designs of life’s kaleidoscope, 
changing with the time and morphing with vision
of the complex landscape of innate human nature 
the architect brain makes.

Premium Member Brainstorm: a Letter To a Poetess
When the sun tries not to shine
And the rain won't fade away
When the clouds black the sky
And you can't tell night from day
Remember why we're here 
We make the world a better place
When the tempest is severe
It's the tide we can change

I can see the stormy cyclone 
in your eyes
as your stare helplessly
lost inside your mind
reeling in a flood of confusion. 

Desperation rises in your voice 
as you rapidly express
disjointed thoughts and fantasies. 
You wander inside a mirrored 
maze of distortion 
frantically searching for an escape...

Premium Member Brainstorm
A melancholy thought, travelling at the speed of light
 Moves through the universe of the mind
 Seeking to find answers 
 Dealing with matters of the heart

This storm of emotions, caused by heartache
 Seeks to escape from the mind
 Like an electron from an atom,...

Perfect Brainstorm
Inside my brain resides
A deadly combination
Of my mother's maniacal heritage
And my father's drunken rages.
A perfect storm, if you will,
Leaving behind dreams
Destroyed by doubt
And hopes undone by fear.
Leaving darkness and chaos,
Echoes of what was
Or what could have been.
Broken bones scattered
In the recesses
Blown by winds of despair;
The...

In my dream, I dived into the cauldron of magic potion and then... here was what I beheld:

There they huddle together seeking for peace
in their brainstorming session
as agonizing creatures of the night
tortured with self-inflicted guilt...

for my daughter diagnosed with...
