Premium Member A Hammer to Apathy
Forget the cautionary calls for restraint — this world doesn’t need saviors. It wants hands that claw at the roots, Sick fangs that grind old ideas to dust. Ideas aren’t soft; they’re detonators, charged and ready to shatter the silence. You don’t repair a broken machine by merely shining its rust. The absence of thinking is a pandemic— eradicate it like a disease. Smash apathy...

Hammer Head
Little nose pressed against the tank window. A shark is trying to eat it. The kid does not move. The shark slams against the glass, thump, thump, thump, it keeps thumping harder and harder. Perhaps the boy is deaf? I should do something. I do, I edge myself away to one side, then a little further. Now I'm behind a small crowd of gawkers. The shark is huge,...

The Hammer of Faith
The hammer of faith Moves in stillness An episode of brokenness Brings forth the potency of faith Sheltering pain There is a way to gain Faith still moves mountains Faith’s beautiful river is streaming toward your destiny Faith in Him can deliver the outcome you desire The fire of faith moves in beauty, As it burns through anything, therefore, State the Promise Live the Promise Call on...

A Paid Carpenter Will Work
A carpenter for a clean job poised And for a new ceiling I rejoiced. Like soldiers' flag he did ceiling hoist, His eyes of full true confidence moist... A carpenter who knows a good joist upon him you can't a bad one foist, From afar would pick its sad fake smell, Long before his hammer hits the nail. The poised I had his...

Big Or Little Hammer
Who’s been struck with even little hammer And his lips failed to curses yammer: “Son-of-a-” not part of grammar: For a blow, mortal, control stammer? Struck with a big or a little hammer! One is sure to enact a drama; Golden voice hatching golden stammer, Striker: replica of Osama While one is far flung from Obama: A writhing cut tail of...

Luke Tries To Mar a Marriage
The clouds dispersed and brightened And Luke looked The Frightened His long bright look had darkened, A week’s prayer not hearkened: Not that of fervent farmer A long parched Earth is Hammer There’s a union he’d cancelled And sought it by The Rains sealed; An arranged Heavy Rainfall That should drown Reception Hall: Bride soak down to her undies, Bride groom asking “What’s just this?” Twelve thousand...

Premium Member Mike Hammer
I was a self-admitted misanthrope unwilling to lose or drop a case. I often threw a rope-a-dope just to win; I never lose face. I worked the dark streets for dark, and even darker, clients while the cops walked their beats, shadows showing giants. As far as I was concerned, they were all a bunch of losers. They were bad; they’d get burned. The lot...

I'd got out the hammer, the hatchet and pliers To attack the package of plastic and wires. But the fix was so tricky, The stickum so sticky, I'd not even scratched it when I set it on fire!...

Hammer Your Words
Hey, Baby. Don’t suppress your hatred. Open your thesaurus and find all nasty words for me Mouth off, trash-talk me, and I promise to change them into a song the future generations will use our song in their love letters. I’m a poet, with the magic to change the meanings of words. Hammer your words, and see how my touch makes them mild and tender. I bleed but...

Premium Member If I Come Back I Want To Be a Hammer
If I come back another time I want to be a hammer I told my mother. She rolled her eyes. She thought I was being ridiculous. She could not fathom any better life than our life. We held up houses, we held up bridges, we held up buildings. There is nothing more admirable than being a nail, she...

The Mighty Hammer and the Hand of Fate
There they go the three flying bubbles towards eternity, towards nothingness Childhood, Manhood (synonymous with earthly love), and Old Age. The first, matching the morning, the second the noon, and the third the evening. All of them appear fragile and colorful, As it also seemed in earthly life... It was Life itself. But... The Mighty Hammer, The Hand of Fate. Acts with...
