the valley of the forbidden
The Valley of the Forbidden Sat under an oak in the valley of the naked woman admiring her rounded breasts, a malevolent oak took offence, not that I minded, after all, it had been at the same spot for a hundred years, long before the valley had a name.

Premium Member The Ballad of the Forbidden Flame - In memory of Oscar Wild
He wore no mask of murder’s face, No blade was in his hand, But still they called his love a crime, And could not understand.

And...

The Pope’s Forbidden Tunnel
The Vatican hides many books, but some stories bleed through stone. He was Pope Fourteen, God's chosen hand, A shepherd cloaked in crimson and command. But beneath the weight of holy crowns, A man still burns when no one's around. She was Anna, a Catholic nanny, pure and fair, With ink-black eyes and Marian prayer. She sang the hymns with sacred grace— But...

Combatting dollars
Clashes of riches For everyone wishes to be pronounced “thor” Their hammer being the only way for them to score, For they all need keys to unbind forbidden doors. The answer meanwhile has been stitched to a lame roar, He who hears it, can decipher all the nameless lores. ...
