Satan flees whenever see them
How many deeds are the ungodly people doing in the land,
They are unethical! Are they forcing Islam on them as sand?
India and Pakistan used their religions! But this is a secular country's seeds,
Use the Islam religion as peace! Will there be no end to evil deeds?
Some are saying their prayers, and

On nights when sleep flees from me like a shadow scared of its own existence
On nights when sleep flees from me like a shadow scared of its own existence,
I wonder if we are cursed or blessed, we who think beyond the edges of reason,
For "bad" is too simple a word for the complexity behind our perpetually awake eyes.
We are the architects of our own mental labyrinths, builders of castles

My Food Flees From Me
Musing with Caren Krutsinger’s musings. I love
our dear poet’s imagination. Thank you, Caren
for allowing me to use your poem and a few phrases
from your poem. Used poem by permission.
My Food Flees from Me
Caren,
A creepy thing I would devour
But wait, wait, wait…
not fuzzy wuzzy in the drain;
are you insane?!
Tickly tasty, i won’t wasty,
wiggles and waggles -

Swashbuckler Flees the Ship
Let’s swashbuckler for fun the fox said to the owl.
The owl was encouraged, for he was an optimistic fowl.
They got out their swords and they fought to the brim.
Pushing owl to the edge of the ship, fox’s eyes got quite yellow and dim.
Let’s fly away fast! The owl said to the furry bandit.
Come back

As Winter Flees Giving Spring a Begrudging Nod
As Winter Flees Giving Spring A Begrudging Nod
As winter flees giving Spring a begrudging nod
So the farmer waits to turn over life giving sod
Mother Nature, bows to Heavenly hand of God
Summer too, waits to embrace racing feet unshod
Young lads dancing forth with live bait and fishing pole
With promise of joy and food from fav fishing

No Modern Man Flees From Books
Which Modern Man longs
For the folksongs
Helped by rusted gongs
Or their lines sing to a throng,
Very sure that nothing is wrong?
Which Modern Man eats with bare hands,
Because on them unseen sands
And this publicizes with bands,
Heroically skirting lands?
No Modern Man flees from books
To simply keep learning from looks;
To libraries and books
Forced back with hooks!
The Modern isn’t

Flipped Hourglass
We flip the hourglass for time,
use moments as each hour's pawn.
Then store Today, when past its prime,
midst Yesterdays--now finished, gone.
If we could make one moment stay
just by flipping the hourglass,
how to choose the hour, the day
so many moments come and pass.
Or, as time's measure disappears,
will we, in greed, pound on the door
of hours, minutes, days,

Not Everybody From Danger Flees
Not everyone form Danger flees
Some do beg for it with “Please!”
Their entreating voices loudest
Sounds producing of the Noisiest:
Blokes who’d shun a state of Ease,
For ordeals paying all their fees,
Their unspeakable imagination, The Best’
Sure Danger, absent from the East, is in the West
Not everybody from Danger flees:
Danger keeps advancing and they’re trees
The Gone ultimate

Antelope Flees
lioness with her sights on the prize
antelope feels her; pops out her eyes
the chase is on
one is a pawn
antelope’s heartbeat is on the rise.

Not Everybody From Danger Flees
Not everybody from danger flees,
Some do beg for it with ‘A Please’;
Their beseeching voices at their loudest,
Sounds producing of ‘The Noisiest’ ….
These are blokes who shun a state of ease,
For ordeals paying all the prices and fees,
Their unspeakable imaginations, always the best,
Sure if Danger is missing in the East, not in the West,
All encounters with

Raven Speak Not To Me, For a Plague Flees Thy Lips
Raven Speak Not To Me, For A Plague Flees Thy Lips
Sadness came, in clumps of ripping hard, smashing waves
as if morbid thoughts could such sorrows ever save,
none but the blind and deaf could know a darker realm
or more lost ship with, blinder captain at the helm.
Yet even in such pains, one must seek out the

When the Lone Bird Flees
Though she holds his hands, he feels all alone
As moonlit desires sense his dissonant vibes
Emanating from pulses beating in discord
Plundering away ambiance to vacant thoughts
When a cogent conversation becomes a task.
Silence he placates discarding her prompts
Preferring the dark over company of stars
As a lone-bird sits forlorn on a leafless branch
Awaiting for daybreak to

Life Flees, As If Faint Whispers In Moaning Winds
Life Flees, As If Faint Whispers In Moaning Winds
As fleeting hours flew into eternal abyss
once youth and love imagined to dream
so went grave error that time allows this
facing life, always with full head of steam.
We marvel at the beauty of ancient oaks
majestic towers stretching to eager skies
oft captured in the glory of artistic strokes
yet burdened

The Darkness Flees the Light
the darkness covers
surrounds the light before day
day runs from the night
open up your eyes
see the darkness in your path
surrounds day stillness
beat the drum today
run from the cold black darkness
flee the night turn day
