Premium Member Invaded By Thanksgiving Cats
Thanksgiving cats get into the pumpkin pie. They drink down bourbon, saying “here’s mud in your eye!” We see them arrive with a thump, a clap, a thud and a sigh. They will put their tails all over every allergic-to-cat-guy. They are climbing the walls now, riding the tree to the floor. Grandma Maizey is angry, she counts them, they’re...

Premium Member Invaded By Pterodactyls
They surrounded the house and we were terrified Because they looked different, magnified. Some wore smiles, others mean as a rusty nail. What are they? Our children whispered in their ale. Pterodactyls I told them. No worries at all. But their mouths are enormously long, creepy and tall. Let’s go out and see why they...

The Night Love Invaded
I hear those footfalls on the floor marked only by footprints of demons and the exiled muse and silence. And your voice calling a name I know is mine etched on the walls that themes mama's cradle songs gone silent and the owls on the oak sang me every nightfall till I grew too bored counting stars. My heart dances to your...

Invaded Identity
I am me Who said this? So is my body An invaded custody Occupied by her Thoughts and memories Two sided glossaries Not a reflection is mine That would determine My own identity Out of my sanctity I may be a string Of any cacophonous Sitar Where she creates On my wounds Riot of sounds...

Premium Member Once, When Darkness Invaded Peaceful Sleep
Once, When Darkness Invaded Peaceful Sleep There are moon shadows, moving out tonight, More numerous than sad dreams in my head- I call for wild horses to race from bed, Into calmer realms of vast silent dead! Within that place, silence cuts like a knife, And too soon I taste that old dragon's smell- Shocked to find myself in this ghostly hell Where...

Invaded By the Tribe
Invaded by the tribe The old station wagon Pulls to halt in my driveway. The five children fall out of its rusted doors shouting and laughing. She turns off the noisy engine. Slips ghostlike from the drivers seat. Her five hours of driving In a bedlam of her children’s noise. Looking so slight and frail. My heart melts again. I enfold her in my arms And...

Invaded
You You are still a thorn in my side A burying pain I can never excavate from under my marred flesh Like a stubborn octopus you cling, spreading your tentacles of despair Into every trembling nook and cranny of my feeble form Parasitic, you devour me from the inside out Hollowing my bones and softening my resolve Until my desire to shuck...
