Premium Member Grit and Guts On the Gridiron - 1
Mud and leather
dirt and nerve
bloodied laughter
collision to serve,
distance, drive and demolition
battle axe ambition in the wild air
muscle and mind joined in steeled instinct, 
a stitched pigskin ball, the grail of the Fall
to fumble it means...

Consummate reliance on the spirit of the Wild

A syndicate of derision that is waiting to depart

Hello.
My name is...well it's not important right now.

and travel down this road to heartbreak.

Are We Not Flesh By: Kevin Mitchell Aka Kevin Guru
Are we not flesh?
with scars of the heart?
Needing are we
to confess our
darkness?
As it is foretold
Darkness was upon
the deep
Ether, and 
Thought became Word then Sound
Then came light.

Are we embraced
by Seen and unseen
Forces?
That if we speak
As God...

Premium Member Wrongs

So much hate
Of late
Such a sad fate
People crying over wrongs in the past 
Things that did not even then last
Lifes that were torn
Before we were even born
Fighting over what...

Winds of change 
are fanning the flames 
are fanned by the deranged. 
The flames of misdirection, 
the winds giving chase 
(orchestrated by instruments to enrage. 
Horned cheering section.) 
Drones of the BlackRock, riders in holdings...

One Speaks Aloud
Soul stripped.

Flesh ripped. 

Hope lost.

Time moves on not heeding the cost.

Hurt buried aside in the ditch.

Anger flares like a flip of the switch.

Fist tenses,
Wrenching blood from within.
Fingers pawing at the line of life,
White with streaks...

Indian Summer,  Part IV

The days proceed.
The nights turn 'round, 
Circling my dreaming self,
Spooning my Beloved,
Ever aware of her, though wandering the strange pathways of dreams.

Solitude
Tongues stall kind words to say -
planes with wheels on a waterway-
A relentless chase of light bulbs above wondering 
minds and breaking the switch everytime
it's caught. In something. 
Mercy, grief, fires within 
choke on smoke forsaking 
hallucinations that...

That Type of Light
My granddad was light,
But not that caramel light,
or even that peanut butter light,
but that "you sure you not white?"
yeah, that type of light.
My mama told me that back then,
when you were that light,
sometimes you wouldn't...

Premium Member Some Escape, Some Don'T

That survivors don’t notice (their eyes on the future,
Not bridges they’ve crossed.) Spans collapse with lives lost
That might well have been yours but for giftings...

Premium Member My Digression: Do Roses Always Bloom?

Masterpieces or paintings 
Exceeding exponentially esthetically 
not slight or slanting. It says hello
And mon amour at the same time 
How do you do and I love you
Combined this direction...
