Halos of a Thousand Lashes
“Halos of a Thousand Lashes”
Sweet dreams
for runnaway children
looking for nursery rhymes
a sweet balm comes to mind
fairy songs sung
to close their eyes
fluttering a thousand lashes
like angels wings
hearts wear thorny crowns
for halos seeking home
opening arms
shooting cupids arrows
across the universe
for better tomorrows

Lashes Tethered With Tears - Constanza Form
From life you chose to disappear
Yielding to waves that lured you in
Never knowing what could have been
Each day I'm haunted by grim fear
Anguished by the most dreadful thought ~
What had I done to break your heart
My lashes tether to each tear
When the sun slips into the sea
I cry, wishing it could be me
I

When the Sun Lashes Out
Enjoy your techno-toys while you can;
As you frantically surf the internet
In a vain, pathetic attempt to "keep up"
With meaningless jumbles of jibber-jabber
Which you consider essential information.
All those gotta-have gadgets you crave
Like some new kind of 21st-Century addict
Are gouging a hole out of your soul
As they maintain a sensation of completeness
By filling you up with pastries

40 Lashes
What if lighting were red and the sky the
purest white........he thought.
He was used by the pace of life.....the pace of NOTHING
He stared at his hands...the cuts over the knuckles,
Slices over the palms.
His hands looked like the back of a man
who received 40 lashes across his back
from a condemned ship sailing the High seas.
Today

Lashes
I have done well with words for so many years
Perhaps a pepper of deadly
You never came to me. . . and you did
So let’s just you and me
You and me. . . me and me you
Here’s the jist. . . a me and me you
Doing what we both have done
Ain’t no worry for words now

Lashes Fair
Fragile bars of jet black, frame, reclaim
fallen foe ‘pon fair cheek tamed.
The scratch and sting of those misplaced
whilst rubbing palm on grimaced face
Upturned emphasis of souls delight,
caressed by tongue kisses in candlelight,
protector of twin orbs rare
shadow of all solar glare
eye lashes.

Lashes Curled Up
Masculine female
with little splats of femme
I like the boy in you
It's what got my attention
but your heart beats
purely feminine
your so unique
I I think I need a vitamin
to handle a dose of you and me
such intensity rarely exists
in the heterosexual world
I'll be your girl if you'll be
my girl.
you have

Forty Lashes
Under my trouser
I never wear underwear
but the Judge
penalised me forty lashes
publically in a public place.
