Premium Member It Never Gets Old
It Never Gets Old We do; It doesn't. The caring that fills the deep dark The warmth that flows From self to self The deep, dear chains of love Forged from a lifetime's memories; It never gets old. The march of our little history Revolving with the cogs of other histories Themselves moving other, ever greater histories Never gets old. From endings emanate new beginnings Change is constant, Yet...

Premium Member The Batter Gets in the Game
I stepped up to the plate, with my old, familiar stance, thinking my set routine, would parry the pitcher’s prance. The first was a curved ball, curiously spun with such intrigue. I watched it drift in, then away, off the plate. A ball! The next was a fast-ball, right on line. I swung too early, too locked up in dreams, Convinced I...

Who will hold her exhaustion when it gets too heavy
Exhaustion was a burden she would always have to carry A lingering shadow that gave her no peace Even haunting her in her sleep Her most notable feature Was her eye bags so heavy They begged to be heard Screamed to be released Hoping someone will save her from the abyss Of Exhaustion Tired from a life of always running Away...

Lovely weather for Dunners' ducks
Lovely weather for Dunners' ducks (tongue in cheek peek at Dunedin's historic deluge) "Stares upstairs.. Angels’ weeing above.. Be a good chap.. Show some love bruv.. Turn off the tap.. ***** No refuge from the subterfuge of the deluge.. Parched sandbag phalanxes.. Ranks marching in flanks.. Arching across busted banks.. Quaffing..scoffing..downpour spanks.. ********** Disbelief at the leisurely river Leith.. Despairing at it baring...glaring..teeth Hurling....haring to unsheaf grief.. Mischief rashly unfurling… Brashly whirling...

Someone Always Gets Hurt
Love retreats and longing starts, A hush where once were songs and stars. We do not fight, we do not plead, But silence grows like the wind-swept weed. The walls are kind, the floor is cold, We touch no more, and never hold The aching pulse beneath the skin— The trembling sigh, the tears begin. You wait for me, I wait for you, Like...

It Always Gets In The Way
I don't have questions Nor the answers to them I don't ask Because I don't know I don't have love Nor the definition to it I don't ask it Because I know fear And it gets in the way...

Premium Member Zora Zebra Gets a Boob Job
Zora Zebra does not know how to be subtle does she? I looked at my cousin, who is snotty notoriously. What’s going on? I asked this uppity Georgia peach. Look down there she said, nodding toward the beach. Zora was coming up for another breath of sea water air. I noticed right away that there was something added there. A boob...

Crime never pays, sooner or later the long arm of the law will reach you. Quote by poet. Sergeant Tim Wheeler’s shift was nearing the end, it had been a long day.

When fun gets easy bail
A festival for all who so to hail, Who freely get anticipatory bail To break all social norms, Turn on head all set forms And get a nod, the powerful to rail. A mixed blur of mischief, Freedom, so what if brief, Where humour and prank’s prime, Irreverence no crime. In any a kingdom Carnivals blur wisdom-- Hoping to kiss bosom Gets to kick but bottom, Yet, what...

Premium Member Still Life: Seventh-Grade Art Teacher Gets High Marks
I'm a woman now. I have means to be mean and get away with it. He died—too fast for my liking. I’d already hired a detective, ready to face it— or at least harass the details of the since-me life he must have lived. I've never spoken about it, the last...

Wait until Morris gets here, the settlers told the Guerillas. The notorious gang laughed without an ounce of concern. They had encountered tough opponents, and reigned victorious. Where is Morris? Someone whispered. Others began to whisper it too. Morris must be some badass, the head of the gang thought. It would be fun to put Morris in his place. A blonde-headed...
