Inanimate Thing
At night, a huge creature floats to the surface of the tart ocean to dream into the moonlight, which barely penetrates the sulfur clouds. She sighs, her skin made of stainless steel is luminescent in the dark, her nuclear heart continues to work, but she...

Have you ever had this happen to you?

You're walking along, minding your business

When a pole leaps out in front of you

Rattles your brain leaving you senseless

Inanimate objects aren't so inanimate 

It seems they have a mind of their own

You're strolling along when a boulder appears

Stub...

Confessions of a Swirly Straw

The Swirly Straw said to the Clear Cola 
“I don’t mean to pry 
but I’m tired of getting double teamed 
Like some harlot in a trashy movie 
If I wanted so many ménage a trios’ 
I would have wished to be...

Confessions of Pistachio Pudding

The pudding said to the whipped cream 
"I love the way you feel on top of me... 
all light and sugary...but I have a confession 
I was not always a bowl of Pistachio Pudding 
I used to be Lancelot 
And 
I suspect...

Inanimate Object
cold and steely with no mind
smooth but rough at the same time
no control over the damage caused
needed for protection 
but lusted after for the power to rule...

A Delicious Inanimate Hare
Come Easter day, the little ones are impatient to shove down their throats
their candy-coated forest-folk, and to this all their time they devote.
And who am I, you kindly ask?--I'm the idol of woodlander sweets!--
more scrumptious than a caramel egg, more momentous than marshmallow Peeps!
Much like...

Inanimate Thoughts
Our car must wonder why the heck
It isn’t being used.
Cosmetics in my make-up drawer
Are equally confused.

My pocketbook forlornly sits,
Sure it’s been left behind.
My brand-new jumpsuit in the closet’s
Crowded and confined.

My MetroCard and cash are tucked
Inside my wallet’s folds,
Perplexed at never leaving,
Stuck inside their stuffy holds.

I...

Practically Inanimate
They say I'm inanimate and hardly ever move,
mostly hang out, eat, sleep 20 hours and occasionally poop,
that want me to entertain,
they must all be insane,
Hey I'm a sloth and thats all I can do!...

Inanimate When Abandoned
Diary vs poetry.
Conscientious, I turn the pages
Of the riots spilled, emotions stalked
And confessions redefined. 
Words of the same caricature
Sometimes misplaced, sometimes misinterpreted
But all speaking the same..

When Diary is my best friend,
Poetry, my lover
Passion instills my heart both ways,
I can’t live without either.

Betrayal, will be the...

Inanimate Hopes
Crystal ball what do you see

Why is the world laughing at me

Tell me what can you foresee

Show me where to regain my integrity

Crystal ball do you mock my lack of dignity

Give me answer, give me a clue

What is there left for me to do

If I...

Inanimate Praise
cold has no time,  motion has no voice
 and it has been so long since the stones
 cried out in the open fields.  hardened 
 still cold stones whose only reflection is
  to bruise all flesh.

  graveyard vulgar granite lips have...

Premium Member Arguing With Inanimate Objects
Arguing with inanimate objects
Can be very distressing
To them
My Roomba drove itself down the stairs
The Keurig switched to decaf

Alexa told me where to go
Siri filed for a restraining order
My iphone deleted the “find my phone” app
My robot pet brought poop into the house
When I hit the...
