Premium Member Journey Companions: the Friend Sonnets Part Ii
HEROES

Near somber guards, units of children heap 
dead leaves, naive to any else fallen.
Friend, you chuckle, but your posture speaks
of duty on this day of contradictions.

Firefighters bow heads in silent paean, 
while polished trucks stand...

A WISH FOR ALL FISH

Washed up on shores around the world
Already dead, a whale, a dolphin a shark, 
All marine life is suffering, the situation
Has become absurd, 
The facts real and stark!
My Fairy God mother...

My Idiom Oneliners Part 1
Elsie the cow was slower than molasses,
that's why they finally decided to put her out to pasture.

With Stormin' Norman around you'd tremble with fear,
because all around him was lightning and thunder in the atmosphere.

A scream from the north of my past life commiserations
My spleen venting forth through my expressive incantations

The lady’s largesse did not this gent impress
Nor did the dress she donned with damnable disgrace
A woman whose embrace embodies deception’s face
While her grievous grace invades an otherwise sanctified space

The other cheerleaders didn’t like football
Basketball was much easier to follow
But I got bored watching them dribble the ball
My response was hard for others to swallow

Growing up I didn’t have too many toys
So I...

Guess Who's Back, Offence and Pain Aint Two of the Same
Who'd have thought words make them react like this,
failing to see my wit, just the unattractiveness.
An eye for crudeness that'll overpower the humorous.
I'm sure within their brain a tumour lives.

Has your face ever felt the...

I searched all night for a contortionist, 
so that I might appreciate my own lack of flexibility. 
She twisted my mind and body in the most pretzel of ways.

You'll see that in time

Aiding the Breeze
The shame in age
Stages of rage,
All complaints gauge
Like insignificant sage..
Waiting, mailing complaints out
That say there is no fat and ugly
Only less educated and under dressed
 
Insatiable creation
The distance in teen vacation, where our

Microsex
A contortionist achieves climax
Her clitoris saluting her lips
From within an envelope of pleasure
Causing local beatitude
Though one may query such enthusiasm
Her clitoris cooing mollifying concert
Waltzing against the hips of autumn temptation
That she was vibrant
Or that she...
