Best Clutch Poems
Destiny's ClutchThe dawn spoke her name like a silken secret
carried carefree by the tradewinds of lust and larceny
imported from the traderoutes of paradise and pandemonium,
sequined with violet venom she venerates the virtue of volition
her love is unlawful, unequalled in unrest, righteous in conquest,
tender in temptation,...

Thirsty ClutchI wanted something bubbly
Coke with ice cream trick
That fridge, again, empty
So I made my trip to Kwik
Swerving around this town in my horses
Parking up by the front door
No training could have prepared me for
What waited inside the store
Standing with her 2-liter of Diet 7-Up
If I...

Coffee ClutchWe meet every morning in the coffee shop, opening our eyes with a bold cup of java.
Chatting about the daily news in the paper, the controversy, hardship and damnation between lines in the pages. Our beverages getting cold as we talk with reservation and restraint,...

What Are the Roots That Clutchyet the people rebelled against me
in the wilderness locusts and wild honey

yet i did what would keep it
from profaned in the eyes
of the fighting nations

remnants of burnt carcass

Clutch, Cling and ClimbIn a sense everything that exists,
Exists to climb and cling.
All evolution is a climbing
We clutch and cling
Towards a higher form
As it reaches the consciousness,
Towards a spirit.
One loves and honors the high places
As sense them to be homes of senses
A higher place of awareness,
A spirit that...

In the labyrinth of shadows, where trees clutch the forest's shade like a hidden talismanIn the labyrinth of shadows, where trees clutch the forest's shade like a hidden talisman,
Like old, diligent guardians, they embrace the unknown stories of the night,
Hidden under the petal of an ethereal flower, a hidden world whispers secrets,
Under the azure sky, previously unknown, limitless horizons...

ClutchSomething had to give
Or, it was going to break
…shatter
…explode into fragments so sharp they could sever gravity
The machine had been running on vapors for far too long
Nothing oiled
Nothing lubed
Everything got too hot too quickly
Everything groaned, screeched, & whined as it threatened to seize
Irreparable
Each piece, to...

Touch and Clutch MuchTouch and Clutch Much
There are those men who like to touch;
Happy when women are in their clutch;
Definitely endowed,
And very proud,
And are always enjoying it very much.

ClutchI watch the hard-top slide into the truck
the desert sun immediately floods
elating, intoxicating, bathing me
you were right, this is just what I need
ease off the clutch, onward I speed
the cool wind blowing through my hair
driving off without any cares
just for once I'm not looking...

Out of My GraspNo matter how fast I run, or how high I climb,
It always escapes me, that being called “Time”
It is a cunning sparrow, taunting with each rasp
But with each step nearer, flies out of my grasp
Fleeing from my hands, away from my clutch
Just millimeters away but...

Couplet
GraspI paused, the moonlight to inhale
As I put my steep climb on hold
Thick grape vines held tight in my grasp.
On I climbed to clutch a buttress
My breath reduced unto a gasp.
On I clambered higher to clasp
The dark hued castle tower cap
I donned my rig...
