Premium Member A Knife's Edge Draws Blood
Dangers plague the rebellious world in which we live Too much greed and vengeance. Too few willing to forgive It's a never-ending war cry of accuse, fight, and repeat We’re all walking along a knife's edge with bloodied feet It's nation vs. nation, brother against brother; combative. Everyone is power hungry to become king of the hill Stepping upon each other...

Water Draws Near
Water Draws Near The rush of a wave in the ocean, the babble of a creek, the stillness in a pond and warm wet cords of relief in the shower, water draws near. It’s the Living Water that took me here today, to tell you all I wish I could have said back then. ...

Premium Member Looking into the mirror, again and again, my reflection slowly draws near
Looking into the mirror, again and again, my reflection slowly draws near, with a breath, it twists my hands—and I know what it wants from me, it has always envied what I love, despised what I adore with passion, tonight it returns, her fingers lightly touch my lips, tracing their outline like a lover, until she delves deep, the blood...

Premium Member In the deep darkness, where the soul draws its night curtain
In the deep darkness, where the soul draws its night curtain, I write with the blind cruelty of children throwing stones, Hitting a madwoman like a crow in chaotic flight, No—not writing: opening a passage in the twilight, So the dead may send cryptic messages, An equation of shadows and light. What is writing, if not a whirlwind of senses, To steer...

Premium Member As Evening Draws Near
A sailboat gently floats across a peaceful lake and suddenly the world befriends me once again Beyond all time the memory of our fishing trip still lingers on my mind; It lays softly upon the Huron lake, like a plethora of Petoskey stones, reminding me of the way the sun used to slant softly, across your misty green eyes; I...

Premium Member Mother Nature Draws the Dawn
** Mother Nature Draws the Dawn ** Already, Dawn sets off This longitude’s waking, Displaying nearby trees Into their scribbled silhouettes In shades Of gray with blasts of black masses — Points gathered Fronting the quick brightening over Yesterday’s leaving darkness, And bringing forth this day’s white-glazed, Cloud-faced sky — Appearing before my sleepy eyes Without any distinguishable color, and Simply...

Jude Refused Winning Numbers
Sir Jude never gave them a thought: Not the kind of ideas he bought. Well-wishers went down on their knees "Please sir, play the draws - Double Please!" Soon, the draws great miracle wrought; On other palms dropped what Jude sought: Millions that shan't take one to court; Big cash for life of any sort And since then Jude body heat fought At home...

Premium Member When God Draws Nigh
When God draws nigh, all nodes within form sigh Magnetic heat peaks, opens our third eye Soma nectar flows, our heart’s all aglow Presence abides in tranquil stillness slow Throbbing rapture takes us to a new high Fears recede, as our ego cravings die We dance to tunes of love, no longer shy Between our eyebrows, bliss pulsations grow When God draws nigh Life...

Premium Member Spring Draws Nigh
Warm winds rid the land of snow, as daffodils start to show. And as cold spells ebb and wane, winter's Ice Queen ends Her reign. Leaves unfurl on bush and tree; ice breaks up, and creeks flow free. With each dawn, the sun shines strong; night shrinks, the day stretches long. Winter is fleeing the scene; it'll soon be time for sunscreen. But...

The Child Who Draws Is the Most Lovable
——to Bianbian's Raised by Blood The blood in her fingertips Was ticking into a clear rivus The golden fish were swimming in the universe The man who could understand it can't understand The man who couldn't understand it can understand On June 16th, 2017...

She Draws the Stars
She draws the stars Late into the night Standing in an open field Soaking in their light The beauty that they cast Helps her pen to glide When she's finished drawing Is when she takes to flight She draws the stars Colors them by numbers Throws away all diagrams Prefers the use of different colors Gives them all the oddest names One after another The furthest ones away Names them...
