Silence, on waves of our tide motioned heartbeats,
cascading rhythms, a smooth metronome

beneath the surface, the feelings we’ve grown

Hidden so...

Premium Member A Lonely Ruin
Etched in my soul
is the peace of a lonely ruin,
an old chapel on the skull
of a hill surrounded by pastureland
and wind-swept trees.
Below a lake stretches...

Acquiring dispositions like hate and lies,

And never grows old

Through troubles and trepidations of seasons in throes;
Sometimes reveling sunshine, sometime in glum of shadows,
Always...

Harboring inside these darkened walls
High in the loft, of the barn where she rests
Calling her mate to come back to the...

Premium Member Zoo Life
Mangy-Monkey;
Gum thief.
Raggle-taggle,
Tail-waggle;
Bone-breath.

Gaggling geese, 
Webbed feet;
Penny-anney,
Corn-candy.
Snakes-alive,
About five;
Or six,
Playing tricks.

Babbling brook,
Nearby nooks
And crannies;
Harboring teeth.

Fighting bribing,
Monkey-see,
Monkey-do.
Fickle-furred,
Out-turned
Waddle-feet,
Bearing bird.

Roaring-money,
Never tamed;
Hungry for
Avian-brain.

Itchy-scratchy,
Eggy-hatchey;
Teeny-tiny,
Shells cracking.

Tourists gawking,
Feathered-squawking;
Metallic-clanging,
Cage doors.

All this,
Attended quick;
When hungry
Bellies roar.
