Each ring alone
too big to fit,
slips on finger,
disclosing its excess.
Too tight the hold,
the urge to control.
Too much the hope
to fill the void,
the more it squeezes,
the embrace to yield.
But, when entwined and combined,
the three rings loop and interface
to make a perfect fit for finger.
A trinity in harmony.

Entice with Advice Which Should Suffice
when we do entice
will be with some great advice
surely should suffice
was enough and more
while always worth waiting for
so started to snore
would keep up with score
runs made had been more
uniforms they wore
wanted to make sure
what you would do can endure
of our house took tour
tasks had been assigned
even though was in a bind
correct tools he could find
out in a hot sun
completed tasks one by one
until completely done

"How are you, my friend ?"
I am not nice
I am full of vice
and sometimes, yes, I do entice
I don't like pasta, I take rice
and if you invade my temple
I'll trample you like mice
or squash you between the nails
like a loathsome lice
so before you ask me again
here's my advice
oh no, not twice better think thrice.
did it suffice ?
or shall I say more...
in this life, how I am
how I remain
where we always pay the price
no matter how much we try to spice
being born IS the sacrifice
and I ask you, if God does not,
then who is throwing the dice?
hey, I may be a little bitter
but my heart is not ice
there is nobody
who is not a little bryce
and trapped like a hungry wolf
in their own device.

My Haiku About Daily Events
need some nice advice
write a poem which should suffice
enlighten and entice
Seahawks Versus Bronchos
Football Game Overseas
more money must make
long trip we will have to take
went across wide lake
Results of Hearing News
suffered such a strain
did like driving us insane
had been a big pain
did have a delay
they never knew time of day
with minds like to play
would lie and procraste
on them pulled something fast
now am an outcaste

"When thoughts cease to flow,
where does ego go" Unseeking Seeker
Can Ego escape its demise if it hides?
In mind's chimeric forest it abides.
It can wear a transparent look at times,
to entice Mind's oft-changing designs.
It might think to enter an empty mind
of concepts echoing when left behind.
But, not allowed, where its ego must dwell.
Our Ego's meeting its own type of hell.
Mind, ID and Ego, the three contradict
the others' views, creating their conflict.
Yet, in the end, it is mind that commands,
altho ID and Ego will make their last stands.
Ego: What are you sans me to add spice?
ID: Remember me, I'm the one who's nice.
If mind disappears, both also must go.
Loss will extinguish Ego's torrid glow.

Most Entice While Others Apall
America has many mirrors in her each hall;
Most usually entice with others may appall;
Could have been,
But forgot when;
We might sign up now or wait until the fall.

Trump Would Entice
With all of his energy Trump would entice
Us to do terrible things that are not nice;
Bad things did,
God would forbid;
None of the sins I did ever would suffice.

We stood at the side of the pond
Listening to a noise so loud was absurd,
Looked into the murky waters beyond,
No sight, just this very loud sound we heard.
Talking to the locals who laughed out loud
Made it more of a mystery beyond measure
So every night we would gather like a small crowd
Trying to fathom what fish or insect intruded our leisure
Then one local whispered in my ear
Was a tiny insect smaller than a grain of rice
The guilty one whose noise we heard
A water boatman, rubbing his genitals on his stomach to entice.

Mankind is a vicious creature,
senselessly slaughtering its own
flesh and blood.
The Devil,
upon his throne,
laughs and pours
his red wine.
Mother Earth, she does tremble,
from the raging war of Man,
and the violence of their guns.

Entice me and delight in me...
Lure me away into your strong embrace...
Strive after me...so that I can thrive on you...
You leave me breathless...with thoughts of you...
Every step toward me I count with anticipation...
You stare with piercing blue eyes...
I am forced still with no will...
You leave me breathless...with thoughts of you...
Encircled in your deep aroma...I am dazzled by your charm...
Left unarmed... I am unharmed...in a web weaved in love...
Your soft lips leave a chill on my skin...it is a sin...
You leave me breathless...with thoughts of you...
Caught off guard...I stumble hard...into you...
I have fallen for you...lost in bliss...I am amiss...
you've put me under your spell...for I will not quell...
You leave me breathless...with thoughts of you...
You are a drug...I can't get enough of you...
Your touch on me leaves a trail of lingering and tingling sensation... Adoring me with wicked precision...
I cannot make a decision...
You leave me breathless...with thoughts of you...
Slow and thoughtful your fingers caress my body...
For you leave me breathless...with every...thought of you...

Amongst the speechless... Choirs of drift-n-stilly...
'Tween a deep mouth... And hollow paradise...
Herewith breath and ~ Deep invisible sleep...
Cometh the dark brass... Oft a Raven's plea...
Betwixt a knee's bend... And deeply rooted slice....
Of earth's aye pastures ~ 'Neath the rose's blush...
Flirting with curtain's murmurs...Bound by sweep ~
A crescent breeze.~ Mid morning's cup of tea...
Hush mid restless dreams ~ Tamed to entice...
Soaring to heights of dizziness.... Too steep ~
To see scars oft left behind......Mid the rush.....
Tending to madness ~ Might amidst fury...
Sing I the song of the stars.... Boundless hush....
Loft an ease.... That only the stars shall see....

Interlocking souls
Except strangers to each other
A reflection of myself in you
As if a long lost lover.
Chemistry pulling me
To your unknown body
Skeptical yet at home I feel
No signs of anything gaudy.
Plunging my heart into the abyss
Taking the road unknown
Instincts take control of my mind
Luring me to a new zone.
In praise of mysteries
The magic of this life
How we come together
Blinded without light.
The allure of the unknown
is the definition of pure sparks
Instead of walking of away
Listen to your subconscious remarks.
