Reading a post by Alfred Vassallo, I have decided to start a discussion on soupers about the ortodoxy of poems. Vassallo complains that the site is boring because comments are not directed to favour the production of better poems.He is right. A soup must be...

Three o’clock in the afternoon: 
the sun should have been 
scorching the asphalts 
and the shingles on roofs, but 

spurts of red electric spark
ran across the sky.  Blackness 
smothered any hint of light. 
Molten earth spewed out 
from the gates of hell. The ground...

I must give you a very stern warning:
Don’t ever call me at three o’clock in the morning.
You certainly have some unencumbered effrontery.
Why at such an inconvenient time do you want to pester me?
Normal people find the time to sleep at that hour.
How would you like...

A tempest of Emotions
cradle her raw explosive rapture
at a distance she saw her man
she desires of her unaware wants
her blood boils
from the thoughts in her head
as it rages through her body
her extreme need to be fed ...

The hunger burns like sulfuric acid
eats away the pure
catches...

When the Lord God Almighty gives us a job to do we must obey. We must place everything else in our lives on hold and obey the call. We must lay down our fishing nets and pick up our sandals and go! Go to where...

50N sulfuric acid
If sprayed  on any fabric
Instantly turns it to rags
Just like some absences
Which sweep as a storm
N'tatter our souls
Bruise our hearts
Up to

You should only read this
if you’ve nothing better to do.
I’d advise against it,
but, it’s strictly up to you!

It’s all based on things I’ve read or heard.
Some quotes from famous folks.
Some from anonymous writers.
Some from sayings or jokes!

Why I wrote this is a mystery to me?

Enriched hearsay disaster spread faster
than the raging radio talk heard — 
Kindling of conspiracy flames
With howling winds of thermonuclear quickness,
the rumor shockwaves came
As did the radioactive tone rain

When the silo mouths began to open,
the clandestine missives went below-the-radar, 
dastardly drone flying
Hugging the public opinion terrain
But...

I accidentally let one loose -
like an egg bomb laid by a sick goose.
It smelled like a place where they mass produce
sulfuric acid for nostril abuse!
I got out the spray can to introduce
sweet smell to the air. It couldn’t reduce
the odor! The stench was so...

A place so serene with myriad colours,
With nature's beauty so plenty,
Yet wild!
A land full of rivers, lakes, ponds, hot springs and volcanoes
An wandering eye would love to behold,
But!
Neither the springs have water,
Nor the lakes are azure,
Neither the ponds are crystal clear,
Nor the lava is red.
Instead!
Hot...

Sulfuric acid
 Contact lenses blinded 
As my eye see it's not 
Pupils dilated as my spinal cord
Begins to rot 
Skeletal remains where is my brains I haven't been chopped
Gordon Ramsay reminds me what's all the fussing and yelling about
Is it problematic would it be ever...

"Aliens!" I shouted above the roar of the blaze.

Please rescue us from this godforsaken place
veritable hellscape, where angels fear ingress.

Just then an unexpected pleasant distraction
woke me from induced stupor linkedin to Los
Angeles fires jump/kick starting telepathic wife
high connection between yours truly husband
to a righteous leftist...
