Best Terrifyingly Poems


Down On Me
Crusty old oaks
wave brittle arms angrily
overhead, threatening
to drop dead
crushingly
heavy limbs
Down

Taller trees
having achieved
the highest heights
pine away, lonely
jealously pouring their
sharp needles
Down

Towering above
terrifyingly insecure
in their position
they shakily
throw their shade
blocking sun and rain-
trying to keep me
Down

What did I do
to deserve such spite
but struggle to survive
with limited might
a dogwood sapling
that...

Joyfully uninhibited, forthright and super-friendly,  

Uniquely uncaring about order, actually loving mess,  

Sassy, and spirited, once crazily sexy and sensuous, 

Terrifyingly independent, willing to jump in without thinking, 

Memorable to those who bother to answer my first “hi” 

Me...

Love of the Ocean
Lingering waves surge into the shore.
Ominous glory, it rages for a score.
Vivacious peaks beautify its core.
Each one different, then the one before,

Once you have seen the power it holds.
From then on, the greatness unfolds.

Terrifyingly beauty raptures your mind.
Hearing its sounds enthralls us to find.
Earnest thoughts...

On 11-28-2015, Hurricane Ben, slammed off the shores of Sydney Australia,
Its tremendous waves beaching the second largest shark in the world today,
Colossus, killing him on impact, his remains were taken to the eco science
Lab, nearby for scientific study!

Gateway To Hell
Tales of sacrificed fear
on scared tortured terrain
wild strengths smoldering beneath
tantrums of the fractious.

Gateway opens, rocks vault, liquids spew
fires burn and soil creep

Vented anger, terrifyingly unleashed
scarped lands and chard boulders
tinged bushes, strewn trees
flowed hard blackened beds

Gateway to Hell, Masaya volcano, Nicaragua....

Zelirious
Amongst bawdy carnal desires,

Every familiarity galvanizing hedonistic intent.

Juicy kisses lustful, multiple noisy orgasmic pleasures;

Quickly raging, so terrifyingly ubiquitous,

Vanquishes wacky xeronisus years; zelirious....

Premium Member My Reproductive Rights Attorney
An attorney friend of mine once said,
We have two opposing views
of the hows and whys of law and time and natural evolution,
including natural law,
and including U.S. Constitutional Law.

One assumes both natural and spiritual nondual legal obligations
to invite and respond to the friends of our allies
as...

Premium Member The Woods
On quiet nights 
the woods are wicked.
Terrifyingly dark.
Unknowable evil lurks
just beyond the clearing
moaning, creaking, thumping,
haunting.
In the woods.

When there’s trouble
in the yard,
flee to safety 
in the woods.
Shelter in shadows,
breathe sweet relief,
become invisible
in the darkness
which fuels nightmares
on quiet nights....

Last night I dreamed.

I dream--

sometimes too athletically,
fertile regeneratively,
viral, positive and negatively 
and in-between sub-climax performing 
some wins and some perpetual losses 
more ambiguously back and forth, up and down, in and out,
and not nearly sensual enough--

every night,
Full through new moon great transitions
of climates black and...

*********** 2
Our skills of trust have fallen into dangerous levels of atrophy
As cyber-optic dream worlds pump ‘values’ into our core
The eyes of men and women taught to view each other with suspicion
And as cliché as the Matrix, many of us have never used them before

So what...

Premium Member Scream Dreams
Have you ever experienced a scream dream
In which you are terrifyingly scared 
You attempt to scream in the dream
Yet no noise is released just air!

As you lay asleep in the real world
You are making strange whimpering sounds
The scream in the dream never materialises 
Before you...

Sometimes I Call Myself
Sometimes I call myself shipwreck,
Suddenly static, stagnant,
Somehow less than a person, a fragment
And everything moves in slow motion.

Sometimes I call myself abandoned building,
Viciously vacant, vapid
My mind is cloudy, heartbeat rapid,
And it all gets too quiet.

Sometimes I call myself time bomb,
Terrifyingly tameless, thinning,
My hands are trembling,...

Bermuda Triangle
Bermuda Triangle

This event was terrifyingly true,
Out in Atlantic, on the ocean blue.
It was ‘81, after we left Fort Lauderdale,
Hoping for happy Bahamas vacation tale
Aboard chartered sailboat, ketch of 52 feet,
Even air conditioned for the Florida heat.
Three couples, all best friends, comprised the crew,
Plus hired captain,...

The Beginning That Ended
Standing fifth in position
Is something 
Terribly unpleasant 
When once was first
All the things stood before me 
And I collapsed in soreness
Smiling while suffocating 
Laughing while prisoner of fears
Trying to keep to top 
While all the fences are high
And all the friends are fake?
I never wiped...

Soulseeker
I'm on a verge of life's defining moment.
I feel it in my bones.
In my head, like a stones,
My thoughts collide
I'm afraid,
I shake,
What decision should I make...

I touch my head,
I hear sound,
all around,
a doubt, a fear,
that is what I constantly hear.

I hate night,
when, I'm alone,
then, I'm...
