Premium Member Brace For Impact
I'd finished work early so I went, to pick the kids up from school
I thought this time tomorrow, we'll all be bathing in the pool
We were travelling tonight on a family vacation to Spain
I put the luggage in the car and we headed off down...

Premium Member Not for Contest - Impact of AI on poets
Oh AI you are the tell I need 
Painted orange words in the feed
Liars revealed that hide behind screens
With false personas and insufficient means
You provide generic words, never in tune
The vibe is off, you've misread the room
Fake spending time within a hearts space
Analyse algorithms without...

A Rapid Impact
A breathless voice hissed from just behind the child’s
left ear,
he glanced back
to see no one there,
his mind was filled with the thought of death,
his chest heaving as he tried to catch his breath,
and as if he had been running,
his face in the mirror darkened suddenly,
his...

Impact
She birthed me a star...
Her inner galaxy well travelled.

Seized by womb impact...
Silence - Rattled

Tone tormented yet blissful sigh...

Return to the source - yield rescue the cry...

Triumph this claim as we draw near...
Partake in this memory...

We both share....

Impact Your Ni
Impact Your World!

World gives birth to worlds
Planet interacting with other planets
Knowledge acquisition that makes no impact
Is like a stagnant water that will soon be full of shits
Impact your world!

Many talents lying unused
 I can do this , do that , yet no action
Living in isolation,...

Premium Member Impact and Noise
Stadium full of Fans
Many paint face and bod
Human refrigerators trod
A play surface just as odd
Both chemically enhanced
Opposing teams do their dance
Fans bellow and prance
Knights without Horses
Joust back and forth
Jersey covered Armor
Enhances their girth 
Beating the other team
Elevates their worth...

The Local Impact
The bakery on the corner
“Closed” spread across the door

The grocery gathering dust
Will open again no more

Gone is the ice cream shop
A child screams and cries

All of this can happen
When a local business dies

The people know what happened
They didn’t want to say

Their products might be better
But...

Impact of Drugs
My childhood had a severe lack of love
I had to pick myself up anytime I fell
Waking up from nightmares without a family to tell
I've never touched them, but I've felt the impact of drugs

Born into a family where being a new born being wasn't enough...

Premium Member Impact
Life is a game of chance
sometimes forbidden
far from reach.
Ignited...
but destined for doom.
   ~~~
Sometimes it dares you
 to step up and take
 all the winnings.
   ~~~
Sometimes the
attraction fades quickly
but sometimes...
fleeting moments can impact
changing an entire life.
   ~~~...

A Positive Impact
Night and day, a thrashing
     like an invisible whiptail
surge van hail,
doth swell me bosom
     excruciatingly, doggedly blackmail
capriciously be-numbingly,
     aggravatingly assail
mine conscience in

     what paltry pale
capacity of this gamboling male,
I...

Premium Member Blue Dress' Impact
Blessed by God* to fulfill varied multi-faceted roles
Dressing-up well is vital among my functional goals.

Notable are engagements prodding me to don special blue raiment
And recalling them gives me delightful excitement.

As Dad’s first daughter, I had a light blue that propped my princess’ poise
Enthralling my heart,...

Premium Member Be Conscious
you have no idea
how much power
you wield
a word a smile
a minute of your time
enough to touch a soul
to shatter or heal a heart
be conscious of your strength
you have the capacity
to be superhero
or archvillain

let's make this world
a better place
there’s thirst for harmony
and need for healing

Premium Member Digital
Digital age, digital technology, digital people
Digital adds to life
Digital subtracts from life
But why?
Because:
People make things
People change things
People use things
People abuse things
So:
Digital education for everyone
Then:
Digital technology for everyone
Young and old, rich and poor, here and there
Reboot society
Reboot life
Reboot digital!
