Time is a ribbon of silver thread
Spun by the spider, Space,
Cob-webbing Man’s bewildered face,
Snarling his dense, doomed head.

Love is the only sure weapon Man
Wields against the net
Time has woven and tautly set,
Sword it as best you can....

Poetry has a hidden meaning, 
words designed to invoke a feeling, 
unveiled by the writer to his prey. 

A graphical hook, the trap now set, 
imagery, a heroic couplet. 
The poet’s task is finally a lay!

Ballad, limerick, and sometimes haiku,
envoi, epic, and often rondeau,
His hunting...

prey’s ensnared by pulling sticks…

In evil all of us you bind,
make bitter greed seem sweet.

You grotesquely twist my mind,
till every temptation I can`t beat.

With your whisper, my heart wavers,
it becomes so hard to reject your sinful favors.

The clock stopped ticking,
my ears are ringing 
Tale, tale signs that something is wrong here 
Everything looks normal,  
nothing out of place 
Then I looked in the mantel mirror 
And seen that horrid face. 
Not the reflection of a man, 
or anything I've ever...

she whispered in his ear
 Torn
 hands, eyes & heart
 at first he plunged into her like an ox

 caught up in the charm of the moment
 in a blink of an eye it was over
 under the covers
 she treasured a red rose that...

Noise, blood, mayhem, joy....

In pale dawn light, when dew drops glisten,
I listen to a chorus of larks as they chatter.
Scattered about my garden, lilies are in bloom.
Perfumed petals varnished by the fulgent sun.
Spun, is a tangled web between the leaves,
as a busy spider weaves a gossamer snare.

SNARE
By Quazi Johirul Islam

I am back to New York after four days
She embraced me with her wide opened arms
Offered love but I don’t find the old charms 
I’m back, in an unknown place no one stays.
Someone must have raped my beloved town
Scars are palpable on...

FOWLER’S SNARE

pages torn from the pews
tossed to the birds

Do you rejoice when visit's trouble upon your kin
do you with verbal twist do cast your snare
when hurtful things present to neighbor men
and with sarcasm say you do not care
 
For time and chance in trouble are cast we down
what man among you escapes a...

Sured my inclination
To goad trapper's ware
For I seek to be strung
By the trap that ensnares
If only to acquaint 
With a pardoner's air
Thee whom unwittingly
Summoned my dare...

Werna wakes up in a fast unnaturally strange, unfamiliar way.
Her body is racing, she is disoriented. What time is it?
She looks at the clock.
It is 5:23.

Harold has been caught in one of his traps!
She knows it without knowing how she knows.
Her body cannot settle down....
