Caught In The Glow
Do you like knowing or the idea of knowledge The pretense of perception or a wellspring sublime Political correctness or the search for a moonbeam Relighting your way as you glow — in its shine (The New Room: August, 2025) ...

Caught By Surprise
Caught By Surprise Not writing a poem for years is crazy work, But she is my motivation. Standing ovation. Demanding no replacement of her kindness, Her energy caught me by surprise, But not blind sided. I see HER. She sees me freely with no judgment. I love it. I mean I love HER... My thoughts of her are poems picked from the most loving poetry book...

3 Copper Coins, And The Kite Caught In The Telegraph Wire
The man was handsome, intelligent, and good in bed. But he just had nothing to say. And all of his days were the same. Monochromatic introspection followed by a sort of smothered self-expression. He never felt like himself. And he always felt worried about what other people thought about him. Who even was he? His routine? His career? His interests? His beliefs? Beliefs? The man had no beliefs, the man didn’t need to believe. For if he started believing in something, he may have actually needed to...

CAUGHT BETWEEN
songer.co/song/n1092pfg1121ti05c0ohw9k4 [Verse 1] We were hidin’ out where the lights ran low, You were talkin’ soft, just takin’ it slow. But I was somewhere else in my mind, Caught up in a face I’d left behind. That sideways grin, those late-night drives, The kind of heat that don’t survive. You saw it hit me, didn’t ask why, But your quiet stare felt like goodbye. [Verse...

May is the season of Rain droplets of soft note tapping rhythm into my coat tip— tap. tip— tap. she walks with me and starlight for a silent talk midnight May is the season of Rain I watch her dance as sun sinks beneath the fence— tip— tip— ...

Two Caught in the Draft of a Door Ajar
We're mannequins peering from a storage bin. We slouch across from the "No-Food" paper sign. Its message sags to a pulp taped to the shoulders of a glass door. Shoppers, incoming, their shared orange squirts juice. Our mannequin-custodial grins bar us from the lips' sweet 'oh'. Crowdsourcing emboldens shame, our French kisses hung on tangy wind chimes breezes tongue....

Premium Member In the deep silence of thoughts, where the poet's soul flutters like a butterfly caught in winds
In the deep silence of thoughts, where the poet's soul flutters like a butterfly caught in winds, He carves his path through the shadows of a culture that swallows him, relentless, unforgiving, A son of words, a bastion of verse that refuses to be shaped by the hands of time, He stands before the storm, bare-chested, unwavering, seeking...

Caught in seaweed forever I guess My legs are tangled; they’re in a mess Merman comes along and cuts me out I am too weak to flail about Who will save a wretch like me? Floundering in the Baltic Sea...

Premium Member Broken generation caught within the web
When looking at reflections it draws and paints from a spirit certain visions sit on the sidelines set aside afraid to choose honestly and grow a backbone straightened by facts in those refusing to stand up for the most basic human right Then again many follow the bully name calling suppressing the truth branding wisdom is...

The thing that caught my eye
The wings of a butterfly do not compare No fish of the sea would compete for my stare And stars and the rainbows are just things in the sky Why is it always the thing I can’t try The beauty that captures the attention of my eye ...

I was caught
I know she is strong, I know she is independent, I know she is courageous, I also know she is a little impatient, I know she is curious, I know she is adventurous, I know she loves to explore, I also know she cannot lift her trolley up, I know she is short, I know she is cute, I know she is beautiful, I also know...
