The pungence of heartbreak swelters
in the tangled dreadlocks of love-lies-bleeding
Take me somewhere exotic
to breathe not the foul aroma
of disappointment and despair
Show me fields laced with...

Premium Member Moonlight on the Ward
Midnight. This white ward
drifts softly through chalked moonbeams
shifting walls argent to cream,
sifting sterile halls.
Full moon fingers reach within
touching each silvered sheet-shroud.

Jaded nurses drowse...
vials drip crystalline...

On Blue Ocean
On Blue Ocean

Blue ocean rises
and falls with cool
serenity,

of roving waves,
seeking yellow,
sun-bleached shores.
Aah! Behold

sparkling spumes,
that elatedly
lick and tickle
flashy red...

Red heart that...

Like tidal waves keep beaches at bay.
