Mine Conscience Exhorts Restitution Regarding Lost Wedding Band
Thru deliberate seductive
liaisons, ploys, and underhanded gambits,
I tendered illicit, explicit and complicit shenanigans
blatant actions to foment coital adulteration.

Ofttime these discrete liaisons found me removing

Years elapsed since this spouse pledged his...

If someone continually gets knocked down
Eventually they will give up the ghost
If around every corner is more negativity
Which of us has lost the most?

Started to believe
More fool me
Be another page
In my sad history

Knock me back

A Petty Imitation
Where there is a petty imitation
There'll be pests, posters of sensation
Grouping of hesitations
Complaints to order, servings of hallucinations
There'll be soap-box amatory slander
About walking coat-hangers slender
It ain't working girl, it's a waling green guile
By his friend...

Premium Member Auction of Emotions
When fate pulls at my haiku of heartstrings,
I curse the syllables of my poetic musings.
If I do not express my sorrows,
how will petals blossom in my garden?

Upon the midst of bewilderment,
lost without a bosom for...

Here's Another One For the Lyricman

Escape from captivity pulled off
     when I came of age

Premium Member Spring's Coming An Iou In Lieu
Slovenly winter's sojourn lingers, but dwindles away.
Petulant cold snaps, squalls and hail the exit price you pay.
Riddance wrung from season squeezed by hugs to relent reluctantly.
In dawn's budding yolk core, a sign of hope that...

Wrong Date
It was not a Parisian café
though it tried to be.
Our teeth were strong
they flashed
intermittently.
The house wine was red,
the bread was good bread.
The creamy leaf was dressed,
it bloomed and licked the mouth
with a blithe bouquet of...

Love Redefined and Refined
So deep a love to feel
Your muse Cupid would wonder
When the golden chance you couldn’t steal
Preferring instead to explore gambits like a gander

Pushing a prevarication scheme without a clear
Strategy as to where you felt your...

Who Needs a Title
Thunderous palpitations upon benign sedaments,
Miscreants vindicate with justice of six cents.
A vociferous tyrannosaurus bursts sickly
Sanitized wives and rodents scurry very

Sedately towards dainty cliffs and heights
Of unforeseeable depths-withered sights.
A Persian rug is spread across garnered grounds...

God gave me a great gift of glory
A gift of a good gracious guardian, 
Gifts of Gaiety, Gumption and Grief

Nor are they gimmicks, glitches, nor guilt

Rendezvous With Ecstasy
RENDEZVOUS WITH ECSTASY

Had I a nonchalant finesse
Would you a rendezvous acquiesce
Or would my chances be precarious
Having failed with all my gambits various

I’ll try perchance a different approach
Where I give you a cause to reproach
Yourself for...
