Premium Member Strange Vampires
"Strange Vampires"

all those years 
ago, when conspiracies
flourished around 
did we or didn’t we go 
to the moon, when we
were once human,
proved to be lies,
whichever way 
the dark shadows 
conveyed it.

the truth 
came out much later,...

 Of balls and strikes - bloopers and perfect games;

 Foul balls, the pick off, intentional walk, the...

Everyday when his dad came home he was waiting there
This was the special time that his dad always had to share

He taught him to throw and to catch how to swing his bat
Every game he...

And you can't play any of them if you're an oddball.

The Stamen and the Stigma
Grandma had a garden
that she carefully tended to
she talked to her fruits and veggies
as she made her walk through
On this particular day 
my hardball went astray
landed smack in the middle
of her green garden inlay

Swiftly yet...

My molten core is bursting at the seams
Billowing ash and smoke circle above
Volcanic eruptions are on the rise
Intense balls of fire I toss from my glove


  That damnation isle, this Icelandic land

Zila 'the killa' chinchilla as he was known
Sat in his villa on his golden throne
He was a marvel a maverick a real joker
A prancer, a chancer, a lifelong nonsmoker

Getting To the Top

Dirty three piece suit,
walking with a vagabond attitude
Unregulated behavior,
got values that white collar pollute
You do whatever it takes
to get to the top
Willing to pay whatever the cost
to wipe the competition out
Getting low down dirty
to get...

Ushering in the tepid days of Spring;
subservient to Mother Nature's call,
April is the reason; sweet songbirds sing.

Flowers await the rains April will bring

ushering in the tepid days of...

Premium Member A Shadow Of Hardball
Ebon bafflement descended 
from the Sun-bleached sky;
A penumbra of illuminated lies,
this world needs to be reprimanded;

A joyous ballet of obliteration;
Fooled by the doe eyed sweetheart,
they stare into dank rotting art
disguised as impending salvation;

Wearing cheap plastic...

Hard ball is for men, I could get hurt by the balls they throw,
I would be too nervous to run to the base for...

Premium Member Have a Ball
Throw it, roll it,
  Bounce it, pass it
Dribble it, bobble it
  Kick it, toss it, miss it

Pitch it, hurl it
  Heave it, sling it
Fastball, slider
  Sinker, knuckler, curve

Underhand, sidearm
  Overhand,...
