Should it be a poet's duty
To write solely about beauty?

A POET’S DUTY by BETH EVANS

ANSWER ON A BED OF NAILS

let me answer the quixotic brioche —
we all need a delicate pinch;
brachial bruising a warning

all the flowery talk dispels the magnitude
of cancer, the carbuncle of abuse,
the...

"Nine Inch Nails, Ten Pins and the Purl Stitch"



She takes the cake 
they offer, chewing too rapidly, 
she Shrews when she speaks 
I’ll beat warpath drums, she says, 
no mistake

I’m a groper ... goody two shoes
she says

mouth wide open
songs problematic 
she's done and she's gone

Premium Member - the Blood Under the Nails of the Martyrs -
Sunset, before dark ... you broke your promise
Forging a Japanese sushi knife ready for attack
Days which is controlled by negative conventional thinking
It does not work to knock on every door when you fall
Fear and suffering, human threat is not necessarily death

When the wind blows, hungry...

Spare Nails and a Hammer
Your mother always yelled at your father to fix the nail protruding from the kitchen floor.
“It’s going to hurt someone someday,” she would bicker,
but your father hid his face behind his newspaper as she spoke. 

The nail remained sticking up from the ground,
but you taught...

The Cross-Jesus Chose the Nails-Out of His Love For Us
Today.. a stranger gave to me
5inch Nail.. 
Representing.. the Nail 
Like the ones Jesus had on the Cross

Jesus Blood Shed.. Was Real
By His Wounds.. We are Healed

The Nails.. didn't hold Him to the Cross
It Was... His LOVE for me and You

Christ could have called any...

Premium Member Hair and Nails
have you ever seen
a bird uncombed
or a kittens hair disshovled
is a lions mane unmanagable
or a rodents fur in stubbles
the wolves teeth
are always straight 
never a miss aligne
and animals feet we always find
fur and claws well defined
the peacock and the parrots feathers
may never be refined

no dog...

Nails
My nails grow longer in the heat,
I like to keep them short, hands and feet,
pedicure and manicure by the girls in Phuket,
they give you more, full service and yet . . . .

I don't need my shoulders or head massaged,
there's a slap on the back...

It All Started With Three Nails On a Cross
It all started with three nails on a cross

Written By Dean Masciarelli

March 6, 2010 (9:28am)



It all started with three nails on a cross

And then when Jesus died he went to hell

Where he spent three days and three nights
there
for one purpose to try to save some...

Tough As Nails
Hopeful doesn’t mean stupid
That doesn’t mean I wasn’t stupid
I was in a state and messed up
Simple as that.

I could dramatize
Spill all the stars from my eyes and mouth and cry out for answers but,
I won’t. 
My spirit can dance alone.
A lapse in judgement will not...

It Wasn'T the Nails
It wasn’t the nails that held Jesus to the
Cross. He could have come down but my 
Soul would be lost. The ransom was so high
Only he could have paid the cost. He paid the 
Price to set me free, from addictions fear and
Countless things from...

Three Nails and a Cross
He come into this world for our sake
His unconditional love made Him sacrifice Himself
With each step He took, we follow
God was merciful unto us,for He loves us more
Opting to give us His only son so that we could be saved
Three nails and a cross was...

Nails and Hands
Miss Nails married Mr. Hands
And their marriage is a
“Yes we can- can”

He’s a go-getter and she is too
They’re a power couple
Who have paid their dues

It’s so nice to see a couple who
Understands “Through thick and thin”
Because the payoff entails great dividends

Mrs. Hands is a friend...

Nails 
If a cardinal, the day before the pope is cleaning his feet,
washes them himself day before and clip his toenails short 
 will he be cheating. Or do all cardinals do the same before
letting the pope clean their feet? 
When I go and see...
