Premium Member SHE - POTD
She looks down her nose
At the locals in the town square
As she sips tea from her fine china cup
Pinky in the air

Criticising and complaining
Judging one and all
Negativity runs through her veins
Only she matters….all others insignificant and small

In the evening in the seclusion of her mansion
She...

Premium Member Woman In Chains
A band of gold
bound them together

At first Sue’s blissfully happy
but little by little
he starts controlling
every aspect of her life
eroding her self confidence
by criticising her appearance
choosing what she should wear
and when she goes out
holding her back
with silken threads

Sue loves her job
but he persuades her to quit...

Premium Member Poisoned Words- For Dark and Twisted Contest
You stung me with your waspish words
Injecting poison into my very soul
Again and again with those stinging syllables
Your words buzzed around my brain
Still you flew in and continued your scathing attack
It all came so easily to you
Viscous vitriol freely flows from your foul mouth
Deeper and...

Book: Radiant Verses: A Journey Through Inspiring Poetry



Beyond Understanding Why
Why are we sanitising gambling, 
Why are we legitimising gangs,
Why are we legalising harmful drugs,
Why are we marginalising so many,
Why are we maximising profits,
Why are we criticising anybody and everybody.

Could we not do more prophesying instead.
Could we not do more minimising instead.
Could we not do...

Women's Rights
A deep, dark kindred spider looms to proffer the sentiment, 
That abuse just objectifies the long persistent winter:  
Scouring around playfully, but embedded in the night - 
Two way of seeing it but only one plight. 

That black body, its piercing eyes drive acutely,...

Premium Member Charity Begins At Home
Many people'll give to strangers, folks they've never met,
While to and for their closest, they conveniently forget.
Many people will give to others on the world's other side,
But when their own are in need, the same is not applied.

Many will donate time, money, items, and so...

It’s the year 4000 and chef Shapid Gu uses her Mac to create images of meals to enable customers to magically produce them right in front of them on their table, once they’ve transferred money magically by their minds into the restaurant’s bank account to...

Clairvoyance of Insomnia
Every night,
Down this road I walk,
Clairvoyant in perpetual insomnia,
Pencil etches of truth and fantasy,
Criss-cross my vision,
Fourteen cups of 5am coffee,
Still no closer to reality,

A solitary car passes me,
Like consciousness,
Through my net like mind,
It escapes me,
Streetlights of piteous constraint,
Revealing nothing more,
Yet revel in what they supposedly...

The Three Travellers In a Body
Today I stood Me in front of a mirror
And invited Myself for a talk

There we all stood for a minute or two
...looking at each other... and into each other
Searching... appreciating... criticising

Hey guys, thiz wassup ... I initiated the chat
Time has come for us to set...

Premium Member Political Ordeal
Political ordeal 




Criticising every good move,
Is that what opposition means ?
Putting party above country
politics left no more than a dirty game.

Feeling joy of having an honest PM
positivity is apparent in the air,
His dreams of taking us to heights
which no citizen has any doubts about.

Yet for...

Trump America 2
There will come a time for you to stand
Remember you will be fighting for a dream
Until the truth is truly revealed unto us all
Many are choosing to be blinded by the lies
Place your trust in what you know is true

A nation that fights amongst itself...

I Thought I Was In Control
It's not about me, it's all about you.
Every choice, every decision, every breath is all taken with you unwantedly occupying each and every square inch of my space.
I cannot move without you weighing me down, judging me, criticising and suffocating me.
I wake you are there,...

Walk In My Shoes
WALK IN MY SHOES

Will you live my life for me you seem to do so
Already constantly telling me what I should do
Life can be tough for me at times I dont show
Knowing I have to hear you always criticising

I know that I do make mistake...

Raise your children so
