Premium Member She Loves You Because
Spit fire and spin honey, the target-a wealthy man and his money. She has no other talent that qualifies, just the sum of what quantifies. She's got cause and family ties, under the guise of friendship and lies. Depending on time to line her pockets, she waits like a spider to sign the dockets. The honey it dries, the old man dies. It evokes such...

Suspicious Grave and Digger
A beckoning hurt hand Something to understand And then try to withstand Or, else, vacate one’s stand… ‘’See, I’m badly bleeding, My ignorance pleading, That it be told the truth And nothing but whole truth About this grave of Ruth! That had caused Frank a tooth! ‘’Does grave wish to be dug? We could off the stuff shrug, I leave with what I have Cleanly...

You Got Me Once
You got me but you failed to see me For you were looking for a jewel In my thoughts I shined brightly But you were digging for a well You broke my heart in two And made my spirit wander You didn't see how much I love you You only cared for your plunder Don't you...

Never Be a Gold Digger
Don’t dare be A Gold Digger, Who pays like A Never one's treasures near While permitting no fear. Never either bestride a farm That didn’t weary your arm Nor try to closer go To any of its inviting row, For one should not at all experience charm Of what didn’t occasion one harm: To never dare reap What...

The Bullecourt Digger
I stopped looking up at him standing so tall And I wondered how they stood to the end of it all When it was mud and blood that ruled the day And the cannon and machine guns held sway I felt I could see them standing watching me Laconically leaning on the wall now carefree For they had paid a price...

I smiled invitingly, the screen Revealed woman of my ideal Russian silk beauty, pure, unseen Pillow lips, brush eyelash appeal I said I could serve her well, my earnings Would purchase nicest things of her yearnings I'll fly her here, get her spousal visa Her eyes alight, replied, "Sure...

Premium Member The Local Grave Digger Laments Again
(A True Story) Now I grow older, and beauteous memories turn to weeds, this blood in my veins turn to water, like the shivering river cold desolate in the valley bleeds. Yet still on the hill rise I see 'Aunt Mary' her hair more golden by the day, when my memory returns and I think of September,...

Gold-Digger Sonnet
Shall I compare a summer’s day to thee in an effort to make lust seem profound, you’re hot, wanted, and can make men sweaty, but is it worth it when the sun goes down? Paying so much to go out on the town, at the nicest restaurants you have to eat, vacation at the ritziest sports around, reveling in being looked at...
