Premium Member Monsters Lurk
Monsters lurk within the dregs of my soul
suckling upon my primitive urges.
And feigning normalcy, they're but shadows,
thus invisible; and invincible.

They stay somewhere between sane and insane,
able to influence reality.
And despite my defenses, wander free,
causing turmoil and havoc in my life.

Fear's an accomplice; an effective shield,
ensuring...

Where the Rockfish Lurk
Where the river runs into the Chesapeake Bay. 
The currents run strong and they say "Beware". 
Many a man has ignored it and sunk to his doom.

On white capped waters beneath a crystal blue sky 
where a thousand men live by the tide, 
one boy...

An Initiative Lurk
When you fail to entertain ask someone for voluntary work.
to learn about boring, to apply a healthy jerk,
Don't hurt anybody, build climax, wisely and warmly,
Patience can promote you when you have an initiative lurk,
Believe me, you shall seek an appointment for ceremonial Kirk....

The Nights That Still Lurk In Your Mind
blurry vision
and impaired judgement
we are in your car
the music is blasting
some rap song
lyrics of drugs and money and large asses
you're bobbing your head to the booming bass
 and you wink at me 
slyly
through red, glazed eyes
joint in hand
you take a puff and pass it to...

Premium Member Warning: Barely Closeted Monsters Lurk Here
Warning: Barely Closeted Monsters Lurk Here!

Religious freedom’s what’s at stake! True monsters wage this war!
God’s told THEM (1) just when life begins (so faith that differs SIN)!
My Bible does not say, does yours? Raise hands if you’ve heard Voice.
But God, Herself, proves Thumpers (2) liars...

Shadows Lurk
In dankest corners danger lurks,
unseen to human eye
hide creatures from the realms of hell
where none can ever die.

For demons of the lowest plain
cannot a body wear
for they’re destined to feed the pit
with those lost to despair.

These demons lurking all around
seek food for torment’s fire,
there’s no...

Premium Member Demons Lurk
Demons lurk
Flying high into the air
Spreading their wings

They follow demonic code
To frighten all who walk alone

They try to posses
The lost and unwary
Taking them alive

They create evil
Within the stray pumpkins
That just lay about

Making them frightening
Forming dark Jack-O-Lanterns

Demons will ruin
Through the eyes of a pumpkin
Any person’s evening

Argh What Accursed Fate Did Lurk
Argh...What Accursed Fate Did Lurk...

Regarding thee 2009 Hyundai Sonata

debt tub bull vehicle, that at
this moment finds sinking 
feeling akin to led

this car manufactured with damn) sped
to countless destinations,

no whomever drove head

Premium Member I See a Narcissus Lurk
Minds stratified in complexity
The layers different in all living
The psyche forms unique entity
On alien parasites it won’t cling.

In deep layers many secrets hide
Search of sub-conscious can’t find
Probing calls from world outside
Echo, can’t enter the closed mind.

A lone prisoner of own making
A cocoon in introvert isolation
I...

Words Lurk
Words Lurk

Believe not,
	That you cannot.
Believe a word 
	Lurks round each corner of your lighted soul.

That a poet lives
	Within your heart, apart from any cold distraction.

And with loving action, 
share your being, leaving your print upon the world....

Memories Lurk
memories lurk beneath the pale,
behind the brow of sorrow,
too many hurts, the thoughts impale,
of lives in tempest and death grow stale, 
 lest, remembered, some tomorrow....
well known beyond the veil,
which no one else can borrow,
some try to no avail,
tomorrow yet tomorrow.....

At 4 years i told...

Premium Member Where Shadows Lurk
Where Shadows Lurk
In the depth of night I wander,
Through the corridors of fear,
Where shadows lurk and ponder,
On the mysteries of the yesteryear.

From the shattered, broken windows,
Gleams a beam of spectral light,
Like a blade, sharp and pointed,
Piercing the heart of the silent night.

On the walls, I...

Depravity Lurks
(By GreatFaith) 

My human heart fails me.
My soul is burdened with crisis.
And strong is it’s depravity, 
Vengeance is longed with savagery. 

They say it’s worse than this,
My human heart fails me.
The sorrow and pain exceeds thee,
And hopefulness isn't hard to miss.

And strong is it’s depravity!
Fear...
