Joy Breeds Hope

As my eyes look up to bright sunny skies
And I view soft shape shifting clouds float by
I feel hope instilled through my joyful eyes.
I take a deep breath, let out a long sigh.
Look at the trees how they've weathered the storms
They remain steadfast...

Premium Member The Sleep of Reason Breeds Monsters
The demon spawns temptation in the minds of mortal men
Exposed is their dark desires, lifted from the pits of hell
Evil breeds in the fiery depths of Satan’s beastly lair
Seeds planted to grow in shadowed corners of a heart

Abysmal minds of the frail are openly inclined...

Desire Breeds Suffering
Craving is an arrow in the heart,
the poison of ignorance;
that spreads its toxins through desire, passion and illwill.
Bound with the bondage of craving,
our minds smitten with suffering
we are bound with the bondage of desire;
with no safety from this vicious cycle.
Beings going through the wandering-on,
headed for...

Perserverance Breeds Success
PERSERVERANCE BREEDS SUCCESS

Jss One was an insult, I cried
Like time should hit full stop,
My breakfast was sweet without
Salt,
My parents tasted like this evil
Citrus,
I continued to hide like Air Force
Was only for my seniors.

Jss Two arrived with the wind called
Releave
I began to breath as an aspiring...

Negativity Breeds Negativity
How can you live with such a negative mind
Only thriving on misery and tales unkind
You wonder why you have such bad luck
When its all Happiness you drain and suck
Your outlook is dark and bleak
No positivity do you seek
Inflicting your woe on all that will listen
Like...

Silence Breeds Hatred
She watches the knife hit the chopping block.
The blood runs deep, a river's lake.
Nails that scratch a door with lock.
Hinted humor drips in failure's wake.
Romanticized thoughts, so hard to break.
Yet love is so hard to fake.
She keeps from screaming
As his voice is quieting,
Her mind is...

Dying Breeds
Hearts broken, bleeding unkindly deeds
Gothic flighty missions behind enemies  
Sand storms ragging beneath sandcastles’
In the sand, star lighted passage rumors a merge
Impossible measures undisclosed 
Ventures, seductions lustful curses

Empowered trustees guided missiles
Heavens educed powers, misplaced by earth
Under fire enhancement drooling mode
Entombed rivers blinding earth, chanted...

Untitled #276 / Today I Know Her Heart Breeds Evil
Today I know her heart breeds evil
observe how her garments slide down her shoulder
exposing freckled yet immaculate pallid skin
oh, the power of the flesh!
the desire of touch!
my jealousy of the other men she is flirting with!
I am at her mercy, the one quality she lacks
and...

Premium Member Quadro-Widow's Loneliness Breeds Sadness
Quadro-Widow's loneliness breeds sadness



between those four walls
breeds sadness as the widow cries
her fallen husband
staring out to lonely mothballs

Breeds of Late Legends
BREEDS OF LATE LEGENDS

The soul of Bob Marley - 
Tap it from the Caribbean reggae. 
The ambition of Tupac Shakur - 
Immortalize a generational legacy. 
The mind of Malcom X - 
A monument for all world's activists.
The dream of Martin Luther King - 
Still holds...

Faith’s Lack, Breeds Fear
Written: by Miracle Man
4/5/2020

Gone are violins that usually play,
that can soothe a troubled soul throughout the day.

We are mired in a time that we can't see past,
and media coverage- leaves us downcast.

They paint a picture of innocent dying,
our future looks bleak and...

Love Ends Contempt Breeds
At the slightest little mishap she resorts to anger;
And as I look around to see what might warrant such reactions;
 I see nothing, nor do I see any life changing threats at hand.
So I step back to try and contain those impulsive angers of my...

Laziness Breeds Gloominess
If laziness gets a fair chance
One can never at all advance

If health must be kept intact
Exercise must be the act

Prayer is the curing pill
Peace in mind it will fill

When a prayer is made
True bliss will pervade

If prayer is resorted to
The best God will do

When duty...

Less Breeds Less
A cellular division and weakening, 
at each sever and subsequent split, 
emotions diffused, dilution of feeling, 
by fractions, bit by bit. 

Every letting down word, every reason, 
every tactical blind, each excuse, 
are delicate chisels to fracture the contour, 
chipping fragments of love cold and...

Shaggy Dog Limericks Ii
The Bichon Frise

The Bichon in chiffon looks so frou 
That the crowd duly wowed has to coo 
‘Til the dog starts to droop
And its owner to scoop 
Some acutely embarrassing doo

The Border Collie

It was not Albert Einstein who dared 
To think E = mc2
But rather...
