As the winds breathe heavily darkened within fury
Moaning filled with clouds begins speaking 
Through stormy turbulent assaults with waves that kill

A ballad is blown away like feathers from angels wings
Rain falling heavily driven by natures unyielding force 
Trees bend to salute the host's almighty anger...

Striking Deeply a Painful Reminder 

Striking deeply a painful reminder comes of you now.
Salt falls inside my open wound bringing untold pain.
My soul has one choice to make amidst all this pain,
Telling me the considered direction I must take now. 

Washed through a dirty ocean...

Everyone Is Out Striking For Better Pay
Sorry your kids can't come into
school today

As all the teachers are out on strike
wanting better pay

So are the doctor's and nurses and
paramedics as well

If you are sadly unfortunately feeling
unwell or have any form or other of
medical emergency or have an untimely
fall

As they also want a...

A Striking Love Physics
3x+2(x^2/10)=20

From this, we have quadratic 
equations of two lovers entangled,
One is either twenty or five 

x^2+15x-100=0
X2+20x-5x-100=0
X(x+20)-5(x+20)=0
(X+20)(x-5)=0
X=-20 or 5

They were drunk  in love and 
became two numbers of themselves
I thought you forget your thought at home because my teacher do not teach us maths but...

Striking Aces
I drop to speed like a falcon
I dominate the heavens like a typhoon
I complete the landscape like the sun
And heel my will like a stallion

Shining through time like a diamond
You’ll only find my spec if you rewind
When cave lions hunted and killed with fury
And cavemen...

Premium Member Striking Steely Eyes
Steel – striking steel
Her eyes demure
With a stare
Stern – congruous
Strongly infiltrated
Harshly deviated
Not from heartache
But from necessity
Crazy tears flow
Not from the pain
That crosses paths
With the hard creases
But from the nature
Of steely eyes
Crashing into oblivion
Where she falters
I hone into one
Of those fierce eyes
To stare at the universe
And...

Striking a Blow For Freedom:Confident, Courageous and Called
Women have been battered and abused 
Since day one
Systemic domestic violence
We are so done
A movement has started #me too
That has opened up the doors
To shine a light and give a voice to those
Who say "I ain't gonna take it no more"

No longer will women be...

Striking Out
The color of lemonade washing the sky—
Popsicle memories revive
Of  baseball connecting with ash wood, hit high
In an arcing, outfield drive.

Are summers forever?  Or only a day?
Moth-eaten , major-league hat…
December’s the umpire, miscalling the play,
And there’s ice on my Louisville bat....

Premium Member A Striking Llama
There once was a llama in my pocket,
as my eyes did expel from each socket.

          His snout stole my snack
                ...

Big Ben is an enormous clock
That has a loud tick-tock
A young man fell off his bike
When he heard that clock strike
As he rode around the block...

Striking It Rich
Never attempting of striking it rich,
whenever my cravings give me another itch,
I'm used to a quite and simple life:
enjoying good food and sharing a coldl glass of wine 
when relatives and friends drop by;
why be someone you weren't meant to be?
Any millionaire around the globe,
sipping...

I Will Soar
If I were a birdie,
I'd head up to the sky.
I'd spread my wings like sunshine.
I know I could fly mighty high!

If I were a birdie,
my feathers would be bright.
Every color would be striking.
I'd soar and reach new heights.

If I were a birdie,
I'd sing a lovely...

Premium Member Dining With Dysfunction
Mother asked her big brother to pass the sugar;

big brother ruined it by splashing on liquor;

father rued spilt liquor by throwing his jigger

that hit sister who lit an elbow hard slammer

straight into the hand of their rare guest and butcher;

butcher stood to secure a full-face...
