It didn't matter that you cried blood, like dew on the brow of a forgotten world, it didn't matter that you cried tears, like hidden springs in the mountain, it didn't matter that you loved too much, like a sun illuminating the earth, it didn't matter that you loved with all your heart, like a tree stretching its...

Premium Member Clinging To My Brow
Veiled by clever branches, limbs silken strands, protecting me from the eyes who’re like pseudonyms beckoning with iris’ clever and wild secreted beneath gossamers, flowing in whispers of hope for the morn risking each breathless moment, unknowing what to expect with the journey’s quest shrouded by the strands, elusive like the moment when I knew true pain beyond the shadows, so abusive feeling the fears who...

Before the brow grows cold
lazy bones, bound in poverty’s grip in a garden, where hesitation weeds grow~ filled with s t r a n g l e d d e l i c a c i e s… a recipe of wisdom, never tasted couched like a fly in an endless stupor… abandoned in...

Premium Member On Sorrowed Brow
When ones children face their final breath And precious days are borrowed now The reason for their untimely death Remains perplexed on sorrowed brow What is the price of what was treasured And how will parents journey on Their anguish can never be measured When all their hopes and dreams are gone So say a prayer for all those that's died...

An Impossibility
Why do you still chat With that Common Rats? As blind as A Bat; A Gathering Fat? Yes, I’m dead upset And for Bad Fight set. Would for A Gossip Who lets his lips slip Where had Poor Chloe stashed The money she cashed That could widen eyes And trigger Wish Cries… I know A Callow: At theft who’s shallow; The idea A Brow Would never allow....

Premium Member For the Boy With the Furrowed Brow
Expectation Is a wasted exercise. Attempting to surmise The content of a situation Leads to misconceptions: A woman cries, A source of pride, The setting of the sun; Exchange it for another one And stand aside.

The Fever Came and the Good Lord Mopped His Brow
The fever came and the good lord mopped his brow.
