Best Couplings Poems


Premium Member Honeymoon On the Flying Scotsman
With a snakelike hiss, the train doors close
the engine rocks and rumbles on clicking
over welded metal couplings: iced, glazed, froze,
the steam heat in clouds arose, rail licking.
On velvet we sit, lace behind our heads,
stewards bring tea for the clock is ticking. 
High tea at five,...

Kubo
KUBO

The “kubo” now complete and done
With all the spirits and blessings
Adorned and commends
All sights of beauty existing
No faults of structure than woodborer
Can ever be commented  to dissuade
One night or two or month long
Of couplings and bliss
Under the moonlight moaning
Pure gold of love shared
Oh, I...

Premium Member Jetblack God of Earth's History
I might best not say why,
yet I finally admit,
Taoist me imagines Yang as a JetBlack God,
Creator of this Universe
and, therefore, also ProGenerator of Anthros
with YinGoddess Earth,
blue-green Gaia,
surrounded by an ultra-violet rainbow of White Bright healthy climax-climate,
currently experiencing a more degenerative period.

Mean Streets
Newspaper blows along rain-washed streets,
dying echoes of hash tags and tweets
promising hook-ups, flash mobs and meets,
long gone to their bed-sits and urban retreats.

Puddles painted with neon gaudy,
could be Mancunian, Scouse or Geordie,
late night streets, care-worn and tawdry,
home to the reveller, the lewd and the bawdy.

The...

Blame, Champions & the Spaces
Foresight is an appreciation
sitting squarely upon furrowed fields.
Banishing nurture to perpetual silence
in its non-meaning, intentional way.

Sperm ejecting from rumored couplings,
nameless offspring slipping beneath sods
of radiant maybes,

all motes in infinities grasp,

and what of their promise?
Its circumference measured
in aerial battles of misplaced thoughts;
intrigues of wishful thinking.

Sentinel to...

Premium Member For Oscar On His 7th Birthday
Take joy in all childhood affinities 
  for they are the makings of you my son.
I am a witness to boyish sallies
  and, you child, its face to always gladden.
That in some small measure you become me 
  so your beginnings shine...

Enola Happy
I think that what happened was that we all wanted to be Oedipus and possess our mothers.
But because society frowns on such couplings, 
we actually sought to BECOME our mothers.

Since only a woman can make a life, 
and because our sex is opposite and we...

3000 Times: a Poem of Passion for S

3000 times… or more… 
much more, my love, 
I have gazed at your nakedness
with lustful adoration

3000 times… or more…
I have kissed your sweet breasts,
drawn to your flesh,
craving your amorous embrace

3000 times… or more… 
much more…
I have stroked you...

Coyotes, Sex, and Cartridges: Mary in the Window
The American South sits in my throat like grief.

Faded floral curtains on
Either side of a square, stained window
Brown flecks, sometimes red, like the one in
My brother’s eye—
Nobody knows where they come from.

Do you think
	Eve and Lilith used to kiss?
		In the garden where no one could...

MonarchS.cry as the butterfly came and sat by me
Beautiful color on delicate wings sang with a song to be
Whales swam and sent a voice, in waters came the call of choice
Windy shores holding sandy feet, a pulsing river drums a knowing beat
... and I stood,...

Premium Member Spiritual Color Associations
WellBeing,
personal and political,
economic and ecological,
comes in at least two colors,
maybe four,
possibly octaved more,
but for every listening then speaking you,
natural health
green-blue,
and spiritual wealth
red-blooded true.

Natural health
longs for individual freedom
for nutritional,
nourishing,
nurtured rights
of cooperatively creolizing life
toward more wins winning climax climates
and long-term polycultural outcomes.

Spiritual wealth
belongs securely in interdependent polypathic...

Words are funny
Time is a word used to understand things that have passed,
A word that could mean slow or conceptually fast,
Do you understand what that means,
Or do you grab on and fly by those pant seams,
We use words to try to make sense of things,
From cosmological couplings...

The Great Names
This, as it is, stripped and reduced - undone by 
raging, torrential, opened senses;
To its elemental couplings of unbridled pieces.

Here is life, in towering, brindled expanse, that 
swallows whole all of the lightest and darkest;
Peaks, valleys, and channels of odds and uncertainty.

Winds of feathering, vast...

You Sold Your Soul
This poem / song is inspired by the many famous people out there, particularly in the entertainment industry, who sell their souls to get ahead in their business. Oftentimes, they lose their way and never recover.

The Party
A voice speaks:
"Let's get this party started!"
Strange...we all know
that the party has been going on
for many lifetimes.
People enter and leave
promising, escaping, disappearing
returning. Bad pennies and
great expectations
mill and spoon in a party room.
The bash is a mash
where blood overpours
for the drunks.
Partings and sweet sorrows
are unwanted guest,
in...
