A Talk of Devil and Poet
My hell is full. Please, go to hell 
with all your “as”, “too” and “as well”,
find peace in somewhere else.
Get out of here. My hell is full.
The arguments you give is bull-
sheet. My fatigued tongue swells
to say over and over: hell 
is for bad poets...

Premium Member The Talk of the Town
New York's the talk of the town.
New York, New York.
When you're passing through, 
you get a scenic veiw.
Of the Statue Of Liberty.
New York's celebrity host.
They're the talk of the town.
Manhattan's day, a queens souffle.
A trip through Long Island.
Hudson Bay along the way.
New York, New York.
If...

Premium Member Jive Talk of the 1940's
The honey was very well aware
As she went flitting by
That all the goof-offs hanging out
Were giving her the eye.

She didn’t mind they stole a gander
As she saw them standing there
Admiring her newly shortened skirts
And giving her gams a stare.

As long as she wasn’t a real...

Let's Talk of Graves, of Worms, and of Epitaphs
Oh I have done it now, I have failed you yet
Upon whose bones and shoulders I've trampled 
With the rightful heir's death
Chaining myself to a throne of thorns
Unequally yoked with my kinsmen
Who drag the crown over these hallowed grounds
The dead tell no lies for we...

Premium Member The Talk of the Barnyard
She is the talk of the barnyard the alpaca’s whispered in tones.
She is gorgeous, leggy, furry, and she has the prettiest bones.
We were anxious to meet her but were jealous right away of course.
Everyone was super excited about her beauty, even the camel and horse....

Talk of Joys
A full African figure
Is how I can describe her
The Joy of seeing her
Is it not to be found
In her leaving as they drool
Her face contemplative
And easy grace mixed with charm
A voice tantalizing as she browses
I think she is on Tiktok now..

Fala.. she jokingly calls me
When...

Premium Member Talk of the Town
Luther Vandross recorded a song
that says something like
"We had the best love around...
We were the talk of the town."

I can't think of the last time
a greatly famous and resilient love affair
was the talk of even TinselTown;
and certainly not New York,...
maybe Paris?
Hong Kong?
Too Western commercialized, I...

The Talk of the Town
We keep to ourselves amidst a fight within

We dream of dating Billy Joel's daughter then wake up alone again
In silence we erect portals to honor the dead;
Shattered fragments making mutations out of store bought bread,
As Poe did having felt a funeral in his brain they...

The Talk of the Town
Here's the kid that took a **** in the urinel
they picked on him and threw his books down in the hallway
used to eat from the empty tray lunches
gave him rides home from school
kids told me I wasn't cool
yet who are they anyway
folks said he went...

Talk of Leprechauns
My grandkids talk of leprechauns 
As if they are alive
And finding one is something
For which both of them do strive.

They know that unicorns aren’t real,
So telling them the truth
Seems easy, but they still believe 
A fairy takes their tooth.

Of course, because St.Patrick’s Day
Is right around...

The Talk of the Monsters Ball
I went to the Monsters Ball.
I must have been 7 feet tall.
I was wearing stilettos so steep.
They were really hurting my feet.

You will never guess what I wore.
And not to tell it I always swore.
But I guess I'll have to confess.
Someone saw me and now...

Premium Member Frankenstein's Tea Party Is the Talk of the Town
It's Fall, and the night starts to creep up with stealthy footsteps. 
The sky is darkening and getting stormy. 
Lighting volleys down as thunder calls.
Leaves have all curl and tall trees have swell from fear. 

Frankenstein's tea party is the talk of the town. 

The...

The Talk of the Street
I have seen love in your eyes 
Baby it’s so sweet
Baby I love you is now
The talk of the street

Baby please don’t change your mind
Feel my love’s sweet heat
Baby please imitate my
Rhythm of heartbeat

Baby if you are a song
You are my top hit
Whenever you stare...
