Premium MemberBlack-Eyed Pieces

You're on top, so, you think you've got 'em,

But, you don't understand, boxing's pugilistic ways.

Then, you're dropped, you hit rock-bottom,

They say, Hey Punchy, who carries your luggage these days?

You won, cuz, you knew you were, "The One,"

Now, you've got scars, broken bones that...never really healed.

With no more, "Glory Days," in the sun,

It's December, can't remember,

Christmas Tree Lot

They dressed me up in tinsel
and lametta I recall
stood me in a corner
not as a wallflower
I was the belle of the ball
but now my needles shedding
the moment I've been dreading
limp lonely forgotten neglected
not long before I'm ejected
and two weeks later here am I
a sad and sorry sight to behold
enough to make one cry
discarded by the

LC

I bought an eighty-inch TV,
just for the box—
set it up like a teepee.
Jump in like tee-hee!
Throw the screen out the window.
Let it crash.
Now there’s an 80” stuck in my lawn,
and people slow down just to whisper,
“Wow… this guy’s artsy.”

Turns out Mary didn’t even have a lamb.
She was just a crack head

Life is better made of

outta new york
your 2 turn in a table
gutter pork
fake brass rings detailing how
wedding ventures
meet her news cow
ill and straight
the dhali llama's
trying to show you
how nazi's brew

now celebrate the kings wife
she's hung like dmx on top of kobe
these are some objectives and adjectives

We forgot to buy a loaf today, but there is an apple tart in the fridge for breakfast tomorrow   we will feast on cake and think of the daft woman in France, whose name I have forgotten
Putin was offered a 30-day break from warring, and he gracefully thanked Trump for his interest

a Sunday eleven year ago

Any Sunday 2015


Long is Sunday, empty streets
a tunnel of silence,
damp pavement, water trickles
into gutters.
Burnt matches, *** butts and
yesterday's leave forms a rust
brown dike, it bursts and floods
tiny pebbles-
flowers on the window sills
admire the rain on glass.
A life spent in a pot fear
no weed and see no evil.
A black cat decides not to
cross the road,
a child

CHRISTMAS — BOXING DAY 2024
By Leon Enriquez


Here on this good earth
A story draws near
A tale of wise mirth
To usher good cheer
A touch of true peace
In a world of strife
Sad hurts in this life
Blessing of new lease
As true love draws near
In a sacred birth
Of faith and hope here
Of goodwill on earth

Premium MemberBOXING DAY BLUES a hiku sonnet

shorts,white socks
sandals and panama-
winter-white legs

no wind,blue skies
dozing in a deckchair-
my afternoon tea stews

hottest day of summer
flying ants on high-
a swallows' drive by

summer-days ever-lasting
memories so tender-tasting

Premium MemberBreathe

I was in His bosom 
With no form or comeliness
Created from dust
Nothing moved me
Until dust came to life by 
 His breath
The very nature of Him
I am created to praise Him
That I will always do
Let your breath come afresh
 on me
Renew me with your Spirit.

My Amrit

No one only his eyes
Shows the symbol of love 
Even If I commit mistakes 
His eyes reflects sign of guilt 
Perception differs 
Not even we have single matches 
But 
Our hearts crawl to see each other faces 

No one was able to lure my heart 
His innocent face was one 
Which took away 

Even the

Pitbull Boxing the rules have changed/
It's a little different in this pitbull Boxing ring/
We fight till the death, nothing more or less/
There's no time to think, no time to catch your breath/
Put your paws up, I'll make you suck a knuckle/
Step into the ring, I'll beat you to the buckle/
Once I lock on you, there's

Drollery The Antisetic Poet

Allusion the word used
it seemed out of place
and wedged between
repetition and simile.
Her thick English sounding accent
was as attractive as her
Gorgous face and , she had
more appeal then all the Ladies here combined!
She was talking about writing and began
bragging about the day she
was in Windsor Canada and meet
Feasty Broadway ( the world renewed)
Musician and singer.
She said
