21st Century Emperor's
The emperors have no clothes on! People are living in a trance Psychologists like to call it cognitive dissonance Perhaps even a carefully crafted chance To see what isn't there, only to praise a hollow show, While truth and reason disappear, common senses go. It’s just simply a situation gone sad I can’t help but wonder, have we been had or merely...

Premium Member Yesterday in a Moment
Soon dawn at plum morn though pearly moon still keeps watch, for the golden end. Afternoon's recalled in dreams adorned in wild color schemes. Memory Lane sleeps as orange noon is coming, after dusk scarlet. Lemon-lime hours revisit and bluebird returns vivid. Pink skies are coming a jade past is repeating, since tomorrow's gone. Time's fallen asleep, at last skewing the future and past. ...

Premium Member May the forest be with you
May you remember the sail ship white wake behind, seabirds about When the bedrock begins to slip When life's purpose is in doubt May you remember every friend When enemies abound When only on few can you depend And harshness is the only sound. **(Chorus)** May the mountains come in waves That lift you up from under. like desert rain that saves. Like a cavalry's thunder. When...

Jazz notes ring out, Teardrops beat down on my window dress. Thunder has grown, Thunder sings loudly and repeats until finito says. Jazz notes ring out, Inside, Sunshine comes and goes instead, Again and again. Train tracks come along and eventually lead to a dead end, So; There are no take backs for what’s been said. The...

Premium Member Unintentional Innuendo
NOT FOR CONTEST He took me to breakfast then suggested a movie - he had a roomy, would watching at my place suit me? Our first date, I wasn't feeling him, but then, okay, maybe we'd become friends and good company. When we arrived, I set the movie, he sat the couch. I said, 'be right back, need the little girl's...

Moon
Candle glow at midnight The hatch is locked A scrambling splutter As I reach for the key of circles and bolts and lines But just as before The circle ends Four corners behind And I'm scrambling again for another key I plead the glow as I– Well, do I cherish my existence once more? Foot taps to the humming Blood rushing under my skin I'm thrown to...

Premium Member Race Track Thinking or My Mind's Raceway
Race Track Thinking 16… little did I know the initiation began. 16 is hard enough navigating adolescence. Hormone dumping, the anguishing struggle to fit in any way—- relinquishing my individuality, and being true to myself. Unbeknownst, this was at my expense. I didn't choose these ADHD and BPAD diagnoses, and the other Alphabet Soup “ingredients.” They...

My mercurial mind
Never at rest, ever restive like shifting sands of the desert, my mind is a labyrinth of quagmires and booby traps, you step on it and you’ll either be sucked in or blown to smithereens… Going in is a child’s play Coming out— A gauntlet run! ...
