Premium Member Rare and Stark is the Isolated Island
Rare and stark is the isolated island In its heart - its bipolar mood And it stokes within the imagination A fire - a want of pursuit. Its knobby fingers reach out to a black sea - Bringing roamers to some land's end; Its fjords entice sojourners in for some peace ...

Island in the Middle of Wyoming
while spring is dragging its feet, i watch a father teach his son to be a man it’s not about the rules, it’s not the technique, it’s the way his eyes flicker with something you can’t put your finger on, but you know it’s there. just then i realize: love...

Insomniac Island
This entropy, it's endless. I'm captive in your void of sleep. My eyes are strung open, My hands clung to you But I'm drifting off, I'm drifting far away, Away from here, and as hard as I grasp onto you, I know I won't be back. Every time it happens. I can't think straight, I am so far off, And if I can't be me, I can't...

Premium Member Planet Neanderthal Island
I must report that the Professor of Anthropology was more interested in how extinct prehistoric man, more specifically, Neanderthals, lived and why they didn’t survive. They seem bigger with bigger brains from the fossilized records. To her, it just didn’t make sense. So, she bought an island in an undisclosed location (classified)...

Premium Member The Island of Love
"The sea, once it casts its spell, holds one in its net of wonder forever." ~ Jacques-Yves Cousteau When Cupid’s wishes surf on the tail of a comet, eventide envelops the tender skyline in stillness, mirroring sparks of neon stardust on the shore. Stroking the salt-laced sand in silken rhythm, while hushed leaves surrender to the sea’s songs, curating a silent...

Corregidor Island
A rock in the bay, a silent sentinel, scarred and weathered by the storms of history. Not just an island, but a ghost ship of memories, of battles fought, of lives surrendered, a whisper of echoes in the wind. Ruins, skeletal remains, of a once-mighty fortress, concrete bones, reaching for a sky, that witnessed both triumph and defeat. Tunnels, dark and deep, breathing the damp air, holding secrets, of desperate stands, of whispered...

On Blennerhassett Island with Walt Whitman
He sat on this patch of turf, and if not this exact place a piece of a place nearby. Naturally, I try to feel his companionship. Did he write a line of poetry on this small island or was he simply being Walt Whitman, honored guest, a person he hardly recognized from his youth. I feel his old bones not his youthful...
