Beta Poems

H2O

I'm more watery than women
under the skin
altho' my body's composed
of 6 chemical elements within
and all that remains
to go with the flow
is approx. 60% H2O
and the gravity of the situation maintains
if I stand
on my head or hands
or do cartwheels
(head under heels)
(tho' I prob'ly shouldn't oughta)
on the cranium I'll have water
(hydrocephalus)
then again who knows
how else would I

Premium MemberBeta Test It

Slap it hard beta test a ‘nu jam on me,
your voice is more than a cover song;
I swear I’ll give you honest feedback,
just promise me that you’ll have fun;

Your voice is more than a cover song,
I’m dying to lick up that intensity;
Just promise me that you’ll have fun,
it’s nothing if what’s left is morose;

I’m dying

ALPHA BETA

ALPHA BETA

As I understand it
Back in the distant past
Communication was at first, verbal
Distinct, if limited
Every tribe began with its own
Finding it a challenge across boundaries
Getting an understanding, the first step
However difficult it may have been
In delving deep into facial expressions
Just as tribes began to share stories
Kinsfolk with greater vision
Laid down a simple written code
More in

Premium MemberMy Life Still In Beta

An invasion of privacy, increasing my anxiety;
All for the sake of piracy, stolen opportunity. 

No where to go from here, just a name to smear; 
Why? Just to cause tears? Yet they’re the only one that cheers.

Robbing all the trust, blown away by a single gust; 
an identity left to rust, a digital life to

Mr Alpha and Master Beta

Mr Alpha and Master Beta 
here to put you in your place 
after all they know much better 
than you with your stupid face 

Too much time on their hands 
noting you and your ability 
challenge you with no chance 
better than you’ll ever be 

In their head they have no equal 
all their friends

Maria hums to the tune of “Taps” as she scoops out the betta
One red, one blue, Wiggles got ick, now it’s just Padma blue
Doorbell rings, ding dong, Maria rushes to answer, Ahh, Greek feta
The delivery guy left as the maid pounded on the screen, birds flew

This is cheddar, Miss Sparks will be upset, hmmm. It’s

Beta

The taste of blood is on his tongue
A scent carried by the wind
Haunches move to a rhythmic song
A song only he can hear

Beneath the moons dim glow
His eyes have found the prey
His mind is drawn to slender throat
And flesh torn away

He is the horse and rider
A silent Death approaches
Space between the two grow tighter
But only

A Tale of Creation Pt 2 Beta

Part Two (beta)

1. As the aeons, uncounted, unmeasured, transpired,
the Lord of hosts immortal vied
to bring to the fore, 
true denizens of life,
with the power to choose between love, and strife.

2. As yet, only goodness unchallenged existed.
And so on, the heavenly host persisted.
But into the static paragon of heaven,
God placed one flaw, one imperfection.

3. Seeing this,

BETA’s sense of nervousness in Agent Arkansas was triggered and BETA, being the nosey
