A Box of Truth
I bought a box of truth from a peddler down the street,
even though he told me its veracity might sting.
I handed him a stack of bills and asked for a receipt.
 
The box was wrapped in violet silk and tied with silver string.
I gripped the...

Frankenstein's Lament
I have no spirit.
I have no soul.
I am nothing more than a terrible troll.
I’ll never see Heaven,
And this is my Hell,
To be shunned by all men and the fair mademoiselle.

I was made by a madman,
Assembled from parts
Of decaying cadavers, and life from a spark.
My twisted...

Premium Member Paris March Against the Beast of Fear
The raging beast of fear in darkness was
Conceived
Its father: Terror  
Its mother: Ignorance, 
With the black milk of hate was it
Breastfed, 
By wrath was it, nurtured    
By fanaticism its character was forged 
And 
Its soul saturated was with repugnance

Thus

The deformed prince...

War...
War…
     By Dane Smith-Johnsen

War is good for greed.
Hatred!  Repugnance.  And death…
It reinstates need....

1. To the clear bidding for one, a mug wump it stands
showcasing mouthwatering care but with dirty hands
for trophy, for lust, all in a virulent game
changing faces and smiles and treating them the same
so surrounded by females, happy but flurried
after each kiss is a mark...

Holy Water's Magical Elixir
Hallelujah, born again

chapels scheming, mankind reeling

 in holy water's baptism of wizardly elixir

  postulating an all consuming reverence,  

rejuvenated myths of deiform fears

 as reinvented nature flows in

    lickety split's Latin discombobulation

 Aggrandizement randomly written 

  in santuary's intensly...

Premium Member Festering Wound
 It was past midnight
The moon, a sphere of luminosity! 
But she saw the frozen grimace of death
And the nocturnal bats in gyrating motion

Meteors of shame and repugnance
Flashed past her darkened sky, 
Cockroaches scurried in her brain, 
All the nerves taut and about to break
Her...

Human Trafficking
She ran away,
Into the night,
Alone and sad.

They saw her,
Watched, then approached,
Offered her kindness.

She felt safe,
With innocent trust
She accepted friendship,
Went with them,
Believed in goodness.

They beat her.
Force fed drugs,
Imprisoned, bound, gagged.
Trapped and scared
She wet herself.

Men came in
Violated, ravished, despoiled.
Screaming in pain,
Hungry and cold.
The abuse continued,
Day after day
Death...

A teenager with the expressions of a middle age individual
is the wonder-creating characteristic of its accelerating growth.
Dwelling in a land not presented with natural gifts;
it still beat all odds to be a member of the Asian Tigers
and a competing contributor to its domain’s prosperity.

The birth...

An Uncanny Truth
A few also rented words by David Archuletta:
"A Writing style technique that hides with an evasiveness, while still long steeped in confusion."

Premium Member Red In the Inside, But Black In the Outside
This Poem is about the 'hard to get' attitude ladies portray to interested guys.

Despite my unbelievable swag
repugnance is her reaction to my flow
despite giving no attention to her
she seeks every opportunity to shout "NO!"

I seldom want to be friendly
but she spits on me like a...

It had been a hellish week.

On Monday
my lonely and tired AfricanAmerican husband
told me, as gently as possible,
that what I had hoped was a temporary separation
is to be extended into perpetuity.

This separation had been scheduled to terminate
when my Fetal Alcohol daughter turns eighteen
and can move into...

Woes of a Man
Once upon a time, I used to be you. 
In my misdemeanor I fell out of your love. 
Now you are quick to judge, but you don't know me. 
In your silence, you wish me away.
Invoking ancient curses, praying I stray. 
Tiny streams of tears...

My Lady
Eons of intimacy, still the one I dote on;
My lady, embodiment of mother beauty,
My ecstasy and salve to my sorrow,
Thou shall always be embraced and recalled
Until my soul gets rid of my mortal body,
Till the end my life exhales the final breath
And the last beat...

Battle of the Sexes
All armored in gear of silver, he stands tall
at the battlefield of war.
She carelessly awaits for the hour, watching
him and learning his many flaws.
He tells her that she can forfeit at any time,
regardless of the state that they are in.
She giggles a laugh of mock,...
