Premium Memberwe bought him off

He was a fop, a weirdy cat, a popinjay
foolish, ridiculous, cheeky and brash
we landed on a big secret one day
he can be bought off with a bit of cash
at family events, he annoys others
paid to leave us alone by me and my brothers.
Why isn’t you dad coming around? Asked our mother.
“I have no idea,” lied

Dearly Bought

Wielded 
like a
loaded gun
His phone
was thrusted
forth

Proof
of what
I knew 
was false
Refusing
all
discourse

Armed
with but
an empty 
tweet
Chosen
by a
bot

His mind
was trapped 
inside a myth
Whose fiction
dearly
— bought

I Bought the World

I bought the world. 
Can you see where the merchant likes to sit?
I wanted to buy, that strange thing that pearled.
I offered my heart 
but it wasn't enough.
So, I offered my spirit, 
for they should never be apart. 
But he would not trade for it.

The shady merchant offered me riches in gold.
envy of people, a

Premium MemberAll the fake stunts I pulled, you never bought them

All the fake stunts I pulled, you never bought them,
All the cigarettes I rolled, you never smoked them,
I need a light in my life to illuminate all the darkness,
I need a space to breathe, to heal from the pain that weighs on me.
You and I, when we meet, we surpass all expectations, we lose ourselves

Premium MemberBought Me a Russian Horse

    I traveled to Russia, bought me a horse
    When we got home, I had buyer’s remorse
       What would I feed it

Bought myself a Guitar

l bought a classical guitar
a dream l'v always had
l dream't l could go far
but is it just a fad ?

So took my lesson first
while sitting on the bed
they said that is the worse
bad habits in the head.

Not easy as l thought
l dream't ld learn in week
my fingers are too short
and my pinkies far too weak.

Premium Memberwoman who could not be bought or caught

she was a woman who did what she ought
with a smile that was a hundred watt
all of her causes were valiantly fought
her integrity cannot be taught

confident since she was a tiny tot
she does not fit in a pigeonhole slot
as unique as any forget-me-knot
a character who is not easily bought

she charms even the weirdest crackpot
always on

Premium MemberHe Bought The Farm


Even during the least happy times in our lives
It is never so unhappy that we should ever lose hope 
Whoever said, “Tomorrow is another day”
Had the secret to a happy life
Another is, “Don't sweat the small stuff”
So simple yet so obvious, it make a whole lot of sense
I don't have any secrets or special potions

Premium MemberBlood Bought

When time stands still and we never need to see a clock again,
When life reveals the music and the light of grace,
When hearts can feel all the wonder beneath its silent faith…

I will remember that it was You, the only One who knew me,
So well, your blood clung to me,
Covering me in grace, leaving a

On your account.

Taught.
Ordered toys and naughty
Thangs.

Bought Boat in Remote Shallotte

we were in Shallotte
far away which is remote
when we bought a boat

we rode down a stream
which did appear in a dream
was rare so would seem

house by bank we bought
with me my wife I had brought
love them both a lot

knew nature was near
bird at window would appear
glad we have been here

Premium MemberNo Store Bought Dresses For Me

My mother was a perfectionist.
A seamstress who made all of our clothes
She would look at a dress in a window
Run home and make it but prettier.

I did not have a store-bought dress until I married.
It cost $19.99 and I was askance!
How dare they ask that much!
My husband had to send me back to buy it.

I Bought a Submarine

I bought a submarine. Not the sandwich either, a full on submarine. I got rid of all the useless stuff of course. Scrapped all the metal hulls, dumped the useless motor, left the curved propellers in rectangular dumpsters. I didn’t even splurge on the Captain’s wheel (though I definitely considered it). It came yesterday in
