Nail Polish

I’ve polished all my fingers,
And polished all my toes.
There’s polish on my knees,
And even on my nose.

I’ve watched my sister do it.
She always gets it right.
But when I try to paint it on,
I’m such a dreadful sight! ~

Though I get it everywhere,
I really wouldn’t...

Nails grow long and shapely
Standing out against the 
Finger where it is filed
Down to a silhouette
That forms an erotic
Design against
The backdrop
Of fleshy
Fragile
Skin
Nail
Artistically
Colored with
Reds, pinks, auburns,
All the colors of polishes
Meant to reflect the glowing
Profiles of these well-rounded
Voluptuous digits that correspond
To the beautiful hand they are attached
To...

He bites his nails beside me on the bed
so loudly!  This strange habit is most grating.
I’d like to throw a pillow at his head,
but he would just continue, not abating.

I’m used to just how vexing he can get,
like when he begs for food that...

Today, upon the ground, I found a rusted nail.
Red and yellowed since its use,
It was caked and swollen; cracked lines top to bottom
With one turn in its body where last it was removed.
And the head was tilted slightly from a blow
Received when it was first...

I am nail polish in tiny jar
and I resent the lack of room.
The brush takes up too much space.
I hope I'm used up soon.

My name is "Crimson" on jar front,
and I feel I'm sexy doll.
My owner slaps me on her toes
when she goes off for...

On A Nail


Dust pan on a nail.
Worn out burgundy sofa in the corner.
A scratched window pane 
and empty liquor bottles.
Bruised black banana in a brown bowl.
A discarded nylon stocking.
Lipstick marks on a cracked mirror
and tear-stained tissue paper.
A ripped up photograph on a bureau.
A dusty blanket...

 Is something special 
 happens when you read

 my hands are cold to touch 
 you,leavening my pen
 holding you fingers 
 biting your nails

 door of sky is open 
 with the paired of birds
 in the sky,stars...

(Limerick) 


A fellow was pleased with a sale 
Till noticed the boat was missing a sail 
He was very sad 
And got so mad 
He hit the man who did the SALE with a NAIL!

My nails I’m biting
Crashing noise so frightening...
Thunder and lightning...

A story about a young boy and his father,
The boy was smart, diligent but hot tempered,
When vexed he has no choice of words,
He is careless even if that gets you annoyed.

One day he realized he had said something bad
So he walk straight to his dad,
'I...

I want to write a funny poem now
after reading Darryl's poem
Why do men think there is no tomorrow?
Because they always want it today
What does a bird say to a bee?
Watch me haha
I'd better keep it clean
Keep it down, will you?
The neighbors are sleeping ha
Is there...

The nail

One point
One arrow
One strike

Blood spurts
Blood Flies
Blood cries

Two moments
Two holding outstretched hands
Two lonely lovers in strange lands

Veins cease to flow
Veins leaking into the earth
Veins grasping at all the possibilities

Three days
Three Crosses
Three lies

Life dances over the rainbow
Death creeps up from under earth
Three times I have recited...

Tooth and Nail

In this space, this world we have created,
it is - for most – a very slippery slope
that seems – for many – to be frustrated
by this feeling – there is very little hope.

Upon the edges of this world – scars of mans
attempt –...

CH.    His nail scarred hands shows me the way.  His nail scarred hands holds my hand.  
When I'm lost when I'm afraid.  His nail scarred hands shows me the way.

VI.     I heard Thomas didn't believe...

Hammer and nail,
After beer and ale,
Big red swollen thumb
My prize
Seemed that nail
Was doin' the hula,
Right before my eyes!...
