The crocodiles teeth,
They n'awed into me
And tore me up limb by limb,

But I am not dead, nor alive
I'm a vision, a spiritual surprise!

A woman who bleeds from the eyes
For justice, and not to be criticized! 

Do you understand that
even ghosts have to be remembered?
To be...

The two for one price deal read “Open here”
with slick dotted lines and sharp arrows clear.
But false perforations
foiled nails, teeth and patience.
Surrendered, she opted for pop tab beer....

Your smile overshadows your desire to cry
but I see the sadness beneath those eyes
your soul needs a place to hide and disguise
the true feelings you harbor within you

Why are you so sad tonight?
words come still, yet so contrite
don't speak at all - you've got that...

I'm fed up with the trolling
  I know what I will do
Now that I am outraged
  I'll insert the screw...

Hey! Maybe wait a minute
  I'm acting way too rash
Revenge is not productive
  Why respond to utter trash...

Yet! Trolls deserve an answer

I was 18 years of age
still green behind the ears.
Had enlisted in the service
was full of doubts and fears.

Larry was from Arkansas
and had a real slow southern drawl.
Real laid-back and lazy
is the way that I recall.

He was funny and real pleasant
a real nice guy to...

I know I’ve done wrong nobody’s perfect, 
For those sins forever I will repent. 
When I put the effort into someone, 
I own all the emotions before the moneys spent. 
I tried to be your friend, 
I looked away from your past. 
Thought you had...

I've got Jesus's face on a wallet insert
by Michael R. Burch

for the Religious Right

I've got Jesus's face on a wallet insert
and "Hell is for Queers" on the back of my shirt.
And I uphold the Law,
for Grace has a Flaw:
the Church must have someone to drag...

You beg to breath in my emotions
To get high off of my thoughts
So sure it's something you can handle
I'm not so confident in the strength of your "lungs"
For the term, "smoking you out" is a very great understatement
I've considered letting it all out
But I can't...

Poetry

It is our dreams and failures,

It sounds like the rain and thunder,

It looks like the calm before the storm,

It feels like a never-ending rollercoaster,

It makes me feel sick.

~Insert catchy title here~
Sometimes that's all  you need
To get the ball a-rolling
To get your poem its read

It may not make much sense at all
They'll figure out in time
But before it is they do
~Insert here the perfect line~

As you're drawing to a close
The readers mind...

Blame hardly ever helps unless it is used to express anger

it does not achieve any more than venting raging frustration

levels the playing field to a point apportioning recrimination

without actually achieving anything but turning on the tap

of seemingly futile emotions seeking for a functional cause


My lover...

You're lost in the charm of a midnight ride,
as I imagine your body as the chest
where the ring resides.
Truancy of care;
hide ablaze and bare,
not an inch of YOU is spared.
A blank canvas,
you let me paint whatever the (    ) I want.
Mixed and...

You’d think the whole of Christendom
Would know better.
You’d think the snake
Would have told them.
“The square root of pie…………Is equal to blah, blah, blah………”
Define this……………
It may make you feel wiser.
It may allow you to delude yourself,
Into feeling more in control, more on the ball……………
But you were...
