Premium Member Angels On Your Shoulders
Stare all over, O World, you scarcely utter.
Bear stalwart angels to arise over the air tugger.
Odoriferous water may abscond the realm of prosily.
Such as the Goddess of Heaven perpetrates an odyssey,

Please, Lord, I pray you are aware of my plea heed.
The blunder I committed thwarts...

“Fire burning in a hill
The lines are rocky rough
Red angels wait to pick remains
The cindered shoulder
Of confused men”

Burnt you in Hell back then you were just a...

When darkness falls and life seems colder,
I will be the sun and I will be your shoulder.

When your dreams seem to fade,
I will remind you and come to your aid.

I will be your rock and make your...

Premium Member Between the Shoulders
Right shoulder: 
Just don't overthink it,
   your first draft is fine 
Stop arranging and changing 
   each poetic line
A thesaurus for every
   last word is absurd
Your soul speaks the truth to you - 
   trust what you've...

City of All Shoulders
im in the train station

of the city that i love

my city

they call it the second city

but it is second to none

it is the city of big shoulders indeed

big shoulders

fat shoulders

skinny shoulders

white shoulders

black shoulders

hispanic shoulders

asian shoulders

middle eastern shoulders

all kinds of shoulders

but above all

strong shoulders

shoulders strong enough...

A Weight Upon My Shoulders
A Weight Upon My Shoulders

Sometimes the world feels heavy
Its weight upon my shoulders
As I seek to find some order
And sort things in mental folders.

There are things I know important
Things that shan’t be missed
But it’s hard to remember all
With daily additions to my list.

It’s tiring and...

I had a long argument today...
Whilst sitting by the 
surcharging charging airport port,
shouldertoshoulder with this pastor.

Delayed flight and low juice
kept us there, squared off;
shoulder to shoulder.

He with his Righteousness,
me with my Right View.
He with all his carefully tended and
Sunday-stoked Fighteousness,
me with my caringly intended and
Hyundai-broke...

The Economy of the World Rests On My Shoulders and My Shoulders Rest On You
All the windows are boarded
the room is big and loud and bright
I never hear doors opening and closing
I no longer hear silence
I can no longer feel silence
the ringing in my ears never stops

I place the platinum chip in the cell receiver
there is no time to...

Premium Member White Shoulders
I am her child again...
I'm wearing my pink flannel pajamas, the ones with tiny roses.
I'm curled up in the middle of her big four-poster.
And watching her dress for the party.
She has just fastened the clasp of her gleaming white pearls
It isn't often that she has...

World On His Shoulders
To hold, to warm, to embrace, 
Standing in the mist of dawn,
No warmth,
 No loving arms,
But for the cold mist embracing,  
Clutching heart in its hand, 
Ice coldness enveloping
As sounds so eerie darkness surrounds
Whispers of the mist in the mind
A man longing to still...

Upon Their Broken Shoulders
Through their unselfishness
They fight for our rights
Never giving up
Enduring the darkest of nights

As they continue to fight
We angrily protest
Yet still they fight on
Never asking for rest

They struggle to live on
While we safely sit here
They die to protect us
Giving us no reason to fear

They fight out...
