Do I miss you, or do I miss the smoke - Of your promise on my lips? Both are warming on a chilly night, But here I struggle to breathe, I choke....

Premium Member We choke
It’s not as though we lost our cool without any reason at all; the unschooled should follow this rule: no smoking’s allowed in the hall. Others may call it a defect but it’s the butterfly effect, against which fragile lungs protest and smokers, we speak not in jest....

Peace of Cheese
Can you forget that piece of cheese that you inhaled? Oh, just a crumb it was. But breathing while chewing, then choking! Was it Cheddar, Cheshire? Or that Limburger, Parmesan? But, oh, that piece of cheese! Not a morsel you'll forget, or a temporary amnesia that will bring you peace. A double Gloucester, some feta or mozzarella? What about that Parmigiana-Reggiano? Better, far better, not...

Water of Life
I On this terrestrial ball Water is it, almost all But for prayer II When love blooms, we can fast Avoid breakfast, any repast But "whence such love"? III Prayer will consume private sins Or Sins "will choke prayer," Wrote J.C. Ryle before dying (1900) IV When all is dark and I'm hopeless Yet i pray (Thy will be done, O Universe) Because prayer is my water, living water....

Just about to launch a new career Or maybe I should call it a hobby Dani Spies has certainly caught my attention With her mouth watering recipes And easy step-by-step videos to help us along I'm drooling all over the keyboard as I type I'm always game to try something new The payoff at the end is the ultimate reward Now I hear...

Smoke
Today is one of the days I feel like smoke. Choking myself.... bottling every feeling, not allowing myself to breathe. Covering everything with white ashes, turning things monotonous...black and white. I am not kerosene yet. I am not kerosene yet...it never corrodes, it forms impenetrable layers… not allowing a chance for reversal. Not letting down a...

A Christian Mother Unhappy With a Smoker
Your swell appetite for tobacco Is a sure life-time divider; Of winds making her a sirocco, Even as she stops being your provider … Softening and calmer, asks you aside And entreats you to her sit beside For a voicing of her disappointments in you And challenges to say “It isn’t true!” Soon, absorbs her rude shocks And for you Heaven’s Gate unlocks But...

Coughing, Bound To Choke
Clouds above are covered, flying kites of smoke Yet we, careless, continue to disappoint Murky Mother Nature, coughing, bound to choke The world’s beautiful wonders we must exploit Leaving its shining rivers dry and broken Climate change arguments, just to make a point Its rich gold minimized to money tokens As we complain about the rivers flooding Our own atrocities going unspoken Violent change...

I Choke
air! why did you perish? sewing my death cloak, i choke. shrieking, my limping words go nowhere. tongues are but brown worthless pawns. the body has the pace of water running in a gutter. glory dives behind the sun. condensed milk without water. devil’s sick laugh. blood moon for generations. we dream with boots on, to...

The Path I Choose
Demand a love so big Oh Yee! don't succumb to lips It makes you choke now don't get jealous of me Because I'm successful and you are not Don't envy my time Patience is a virtue Your time will come For slowly slowly we blossom No more will we have to ask... What do we do? How long will you play with fire Untill your heart has...

The Sound
I dreamed of a note A hollow tone in oak The bark of a symphony And every rest a choke Brass nails in the timbre Hummed with lovely hues It split the wood and killed it while Hells bells chimmed in blues Fluttering green wings clinging to branches The giant cried and shook I stood wrapped in dispair As the knots and I shared a...
