The Grasping Talons of Desire
I want to cling To you The way vultures do Circling in On every movement Until the last exhale in winter’s air Replacing bed sheets With blankets of Frosted covered grass Opening up to me Slowly Like a flower at the end of March Almost as if The exposure Tickled your rib cage Tell me About the...

To Maintain
Rescheduling to allow enough time so that what had been done in 15 minutes could be done in 7;00 minutes. Re-learning the graft is how he described the doings of "Allocated Time"! in working hours are expensive. In Lescer often their isn't enough time to accomplish what you wished or planned to do. In understanding time is set aside to show how different things are. In a relationship one...

Grasping Nightmare
Sleepless every night, My mind's deprived of the light. Even in midnight, I can't sleep tight. Sleep's always in delay, It feels like a replay. Can't rest even for a day, I feel like my body starts to decay. My eyes are heavy, But I can't rest idly. Every time my eyes shut, it's clingy, It feels like a demonic entity. When my eyes are open, I...

Premium Member Grasping For Goldilocks
Burning off the excess Things got out of line Everything is golden Until it loses its shine Pendulum constantly swinging Quick to overreact Impermanence around the corner Grasping for what is fact Need to seek balance Stand on stable ground Know things will settle What was lost will be found The scale evens out Water finds its level...

Vanishing Spirit
Time reconstructing the construction cell by cell eroding, trying to remember something something beyond my grasp, There is a vagueness a shaft of light Through a darkened door. a transient brilliance that fails to illuminate. a truth that i once carried lightly on my back something essential has gone As if its floating out there among the stars....

Premium Member Exquisite Love Grasping Hands
The eye-to-eye association flick life away. Pretty natural tones ring out in my flyway Light, invisible hands bait me to the clay. It's excessively captivating of a grasp to assay. Blissful lyrics led me to find my way to an archway. I heard a sublime newly birth beat straightaway. This soft, serene sparkle enlightens my allay....

“plunge in now, into the current reclaim true self, luminescent” _ quote by poet ________________________________ heart throbs soar when blessings in-pour consciousness core, seeking encore let’s out as gasp, failing to grasp fleeting illusions cannot clasp down on all fours, we yet seek more each breath we inhale, must exhale letting go then, why fears assail with God our guide, fearlessly glide propelled by His...

Premium Member Grasping Nettles
My father showed me how to pull nettles without being stung. With a confident and downward grasp and without hesitation, To grip and flatten the stinging hairs by following their direction but I have never reached to do it, or had any to pull in my city garden. I watched him dig sods with a spade and...

Maybe it's just me. So, I'm asking, as focused, yet open as I could ever hope to be, Do negative correlations between inhaling and exhaling Earth's sensory WorldView resemble, for you, too, a reverse correlation, dipolar co-arising appositional contrast, in-between grasping on and distracting off? I am not sure why this question could be economically or politically or psychologically or neurobiologically significant In this time of great polarized climate EarthHealth and EconomicSafety crisis, and yet, it persistently seems...

Grasping
It wasn't her face that she had hid, it was all of her insecurities instead. The feelings of worthlessness made only worse by the other thoughts within her head. She had given and he had taken, from shattered memories she'd fled Down the hall and to the right, Into the garden, into the night Into the darkness, into the deep Down into her soul, into...

Premium Member Grasping Fingers--
Today I walked away as I prayed; By chance my emotions did stray; By chance in blown flow in my heart did dance; Running Free frolicking but early glimmers glance; I am calling on my soul to ignore my sins; I'm shunned by the presence of my future beginnings; Not tomorrow I stand and I say; Rebuking the sins and the...
