Entrapped
The rocks and stones hit you hard,
And cause many cuts and bruises
Do you deserve this treatment
When your friend's future wife abuses
The love her lover gave to her
And promised to stay true
And now she has broken her word
To elope with you.
How do you feel
Betraying your good and faithful friend
Did you think
This illicit affair would end
Without causing

Entrapped In Your Web
Entrapped in your web
Infatuation supreme
Awed by your glory
Rolled in your pure devotion
I willingly surrender

Entrapped Imprisoned
Don't be
Fooled
By the
News that
I'm bound
I've been
Released
Set free
Now I'm
Found
Don't be
Entrapped
Imprisoned
By your
Mind set
Don't git
Trap up
Lock up
For time
Unlike

Entrapped Poetry
What would a hunter ever do with empty canvas, oils and brush?
Maybe with ease he might entrap the finest hues of poetry:
Catching moments in time and then painting them for eternity.

Entrapped
Alone in a crowd of wishers
Free to slip away
Fl[pant answers tying me in
To never ending questions
horizons remembered keeping me sane
Sunsets of past indiscretions
How did I ever end up in here
responding to guided impressions
What is it they're seeking?
So earnestly lost
Have they no caution to counting the cost
Is peace so unnerving
They have

Entrapped In the Space Between the Nib and Quinine
trapped in the space on a bard’s nib we slept,
Hibernated, slumbered and under the quinine stains we wept,
Yearned we did to spill ourselves on paper,
Bard he caged his thoughts and emotions for later.
Later, we heard them thoughts say as years went by,
Afraid we were for the burden on his heart was high,
Ever we knew

Tribute To God Entrapped By a Dream
In my dreams
I walk along the shores
The Sea is calm
The night is still
Under my feet the sand is soft
The wind blows vigorously
In my direction
I hear whispers
Voices calling from a distance
I stop, look and listen
Can't you hear them
My sight taken from me
The dark night fog has blinded me
Lost in my sins
Consume by greed
Broken by addiction
Confused
