Premium Member Hankering For a Kiss
Come dear beau
embrace in my shadow
beneath my leaves
for a kiss or two.
I am a mistletoe
a parasite,
that needs to hang
on a tree as host,
and moreso,
I need kisses
to excite and powerup!...

Premium Member A Human Hankering
The calendar counts the weeks and months of COVID.
Yet, every pensive daybreak I am granted that for which I never asked.
Of course, suffering sickness and death tolls are endlessly morbid.
Still, my morning strolls find dazzling nooks where wonder is unmasked.

Plentiful pansies splash passion rainbows over...

While Hankering
Hey! What are you prating?
Nobody in here desires waiting
With everything being instant
Why should waiting be a constant

Sarah, for Isaac waited until ninety years
Rebecca, begot Esau and Jacob waiting twenty years
Waiting for Joseph, perhaps made Rachel shed tears
Her words could have been bitter in Jacob’s ears

Ruth’s...

Hankering
I’m hankering to leave 
To lightly tread upon the resilient clover hiding from the path
To touch the soft moss frosting on the garden rocks
To search for footprintless paths and linger in the stillness
To listen to the breath of the salty wind
To mentally needlepoint the stars...

Haggard Hemispheres Hankering
dusty drips drooling
inky lits lurching
felon fits fostering
callous contractions cupping
Haggard how hankering
oily oceans assembling

nocturnal nature nimbling
fiery feelings seducing
airy allotment amputating

bounty pulses puncturing
severed seals smirking
damp dark dancing

multifarious means metamorphosing
all transcending tottering.

Hoisted Hankering Fart - Day 22
smirks drip dances
seeped'n rustic rhythm
birthing moaning melody
spanked by surges
airy ambiguity fostered
callous concerto register

punctured piano pulses
riveting reeling rises
squashing sassy capillaries

then haughty halt
diminuendo digs gore
perforating pulpy pores

hoisted hankering fart:
callous emotions' cart.

A Hankering For Sweets
Seemingly out of nowhere,
I have experienced an incessant yearning for sweets.
When I see mouth-watering sweets gracing my table,
An intense temptation grow inside me,
My desire goes on elevating;
Making it hard to satiate my selective hunger.
It's always an overwhelming feeling,
triggering a happy spot in my brain....

Hoisted Horizons Hankering
punctured pleasure pulsing
bounty beats blushing
hoisted horizons hankering
damping dark dances
on tainted torrent
cupping callous crest

wielded waves whooshing
heaving vying hymns
with felon verses

Ironbounds mystic move
swaying stray mood
feeble fishes chew

on and on
punctured pleasure's pawn.

let
me
taste you 
head to toe,
just like forked lightning
tastes air, if you feel so inclined.
please allow me to savor your saccharine sweetness;
you're much like lukewarm honey oozing generously into my salivating tongue!

His two-way hustler?

My wishes sit on fates shoulder
A hankering to sit over
I lie asleep in my fog of desire
For I can’t cast a spell un pondered...
