As Sharp As a Razor
Me barber’s still one of them blokes who lives the school of old,
using methods quite old fashioned to what modern trends unfold,
so with scissors, clippers, hot towel, then lathered with a brush,
he’ll shave you with a cutthroat, though never in a rush.

And he offers further...

"Sharp Nibbed, Diminished"



Ignominy, cries softly ...

When the ground swallowed him
When life imploded inside
When the little girl cried
At that moment life died

When his heart broke
When all words dried
When his tears cried
the second time spent

absent love wept
willows drowning dreams
turning pages slowly

a life boat floating aimlessly
sharp-nibbed oars
beak-like bleeding

dipping...

Premium Member Oh, She's the Sharp Edges
She decides, 
it is set;
her eyes 
ask 
and answer.
Shoulders 
stretch 
back,
one higher 
than the other,
breasts 
push 
out, 
pelvis in-to 
a shallow c-shape,
rhythmic movements 
like breathing,
more gliding 
than walking;
a slight touch, 
then
a slow turn 
to the right,
slender fingers 
moving 
the air of 
her body
deep 
inside

The Sharp Tooth of Truth
I stood atop of my pointed view and felt the sharp tooth of truth.
How elegantly we lived the lie,  a fictional legend always on the edge of a prequel.
But the sharp tooth of truth really cuts the fat right down to the bone.
So what...

Premium Member Sharp Words Leave Invisible Scars
Sharp words leave invisible scars, and pain,
They pierce like sword and harm the soul.
Such painful words keep echoing the ears,
With no scope left for the heart to console.

        Like arrows sharp words hurt deep inside,
   ...

Sharp Teeth Clown
A clown so cute
Can’t be a brute.

Ten foot tall in size
He called him Penny Wise.

Children abducted and killed
Parents hearts with pain filled.

IT was not a clown at all
But a spider hundred feet tall.

Don’t go near it might rip your throat
In the sewer you’ll definitely float....

Premium Member Next Poem, Erased On a Sharp Black Line
"Next Poem, Erased on a Sharp Black Line"



The more I try to erase you
The more you present sharp and present
Oligarchy claps on, 
Teeth sharp and tongues bite venomous in numbers

There you are walking
barefoot and blindfolded 
on a Sharp Black Line
Daring to dive in

Here I await...

The Blade: Dull, Wise, Sharp, and Forever Heard
The stone, icy and arid
He brings it to the table, all the while a fable plays in his mind
He remembers a girl, a girl from long ago
His blade in hand, shining armor dawned,
He charges forwards, to save the girl,
He slips, falls, his heel tender, his...

Premium Member Your Sharp Tongue
No torrid steel rod will cauterize my wounds
I cannot lick these festering gashes clean
Your sharp-bladed tongue has bitten deeply 
fangs plunged with each vile cursed scene

No mere prick or scratch did you inflict
as thorns draw drops from a finger laid bare
You severed our dangling cord...
