Premium Member Going All Bruce Lee
"Going All Bruce Lee" 

It’s like holding water
in your hands. 
they say, be like water
as if on the drop, 
the turn of H20 on tap, 
one can go all Bruce Lee.

he was rather gung-ho;
but the subliminal message
he  projected, without malice
in his lithe fluidity 
brought...

It
It grows
beneath the surface
It grows
Behind the curtain

It grows
And when it is seen
It’s too late
It’s there to stay

It is like a gas
Hovering 
Following
Enveloping those

In its Smokey tendrils
Entrapping 
Clinging like brambles
To clothes

It coils itself
Around 
Tighter and tighter
It sits

By the ear
And hisses
Cruel music
To those unaware

Invisible It follows
Infecting the...

Premium Member The Right Road Taken
I hear a voice call out to me 
through whispers in the wind at night. 
It haunts my soul and sends a plea 
for love to shine its brilliant light. 

Within my dreams my spirit seeks 
to find the source of this request. 
To share...

My Anxiety
Anxiety can fuel a person with imaginations created from the darkest corners of the mind, overwhelming them with the negativities of the unknown. 
It is in those moments where it’s critical to take a step back and remember to breathe, to exhale the toxics fumes...

If
Let not olden days aspire 
All about the you and me 
In wild, wild winter of desire  
Longing and longing to be 
In each other’s warmth

Love is in the air, they say
Oh, with it the minded minds
Vibrantly wish to live and sway  
Embracing...

Echo and Narcissus Part 1
King Cephissus lured Liriope
.  To bathe and frolic in his stream
   Entrapping her she lost all hope
   His favours now she must redeem 
   Her ardent struggles came to naught
   He ravished her, lust was the...

Premium Member Tale of An Old Crow
I was hiking in the hills, and I was talking to the air
when a fork in the path, took me first here,... and then, there
Prickly thickets, were aflame with brilliant crimson,
entrapping my feet, with a pin-cushion prison

The foxgloves too, grew in mass profusion
My head in...

Does This Gun In My Mouth Make Me Look Suicidal?
guilty war pigs with nowhere to hide
the shame of a nation that doesn't try
the obsession of bad to the bone
does this gun in my mouth make me look suicidal

no

die for the cause of someone elses desire to kill
blackmail and pigeonhole the stool pigeon

Struggle To Write
prosaic prologues bewitch 
   feeble minded scribe doth undertakes 
tend toward lugubriousness ring tone 
   for goodness sake

echoing across, 
   a figurative lake woebegone, where quake
shutters latched storm windows, 
   clapped closed winter season didst make

A Zealous Poet
All right, no more Abecedarian again!
Buzz off,
Cut me some slack,
Dogging me,
Entrapping me with a 
Form of poetry I am not
Good at,
Hamilton!
I entreat you
Jot down some other forms that won’t
Knock me off my rocker, like
Lyric, Limerick or Lay on
Myth and Mystery,
Narrative, Ninette or Nonet,  
Ode,...

Forcery
Freedom for a soldier,

a redeemer getting older-

centuries existing,

a string blissening,

and it's best to bet that you're listening...

Its captured by niss-niss-
niss...

They get printing-

evaporating,

haggard slapping,

as the tonic water is happening-

booze is entrapping, 

I am now water,
as the goddman is blotter-

I'm now happily rapturous and re-camping....

Slings and Arrows
I foolishly fell from a mountainous high only to land on a desert dry
Images of liquid lust within my emotive eye calcified to a crusted cry
Warning winds in delusory distance holding hurricanes of resistance
Conjuring catacombs of assistance within isolation of nonexistence	

The pensive pain penetrates as...

Penalty
It only made sense to me-

like I only wade in destiny,

like I only drink very dark tea,
on summer mornings when they are scorching...

It only made sense to me,

like it's scoring the dividers detracting O' tall and torry,
at the worried hello sojourning,

...of a next year's encouraged
deuteronomy,

Regretting Cake
Cake was desirable,
And so deliciously dreamy,
People were attracted emotionally,
Using it when they felt down,
Hiding their dark secret from others,
Feeling guilty about their indulgences,
Uncontrollable affairs,
Enticing and mesmerizing
Entrapping people with sweet charm,
Candlelit nights secluded rendezvous,
Passionate words spoken,
Entrapping with taste,
Sometimes disguising,
With different dressings,
But was the most appealing,
When covered...
