Premium Member The Lower Realms

The soul wanderer reached a lower realm
He was offered Siddhis, women and wealth 
Love suffused heart, having God at the helm
Saw ego’s serpentine approach in stealth

What avail power, when God search our aim
Why pander to lust, since life ebbs away
Once enlivened by bliss, we’re not the same
Rapture by day and night, that’s here to stay

Ensouling mind-body, love flame steady
Joyous soul entwines with Holy Spirit
Gong of truth within signals we’re ready
To plunge in the void and reach the summit

All’s enabled when desires we let go
Renounce oh hermit, cravings of ego

Libby Was Christened

Cicada shell needed discarding, fast
Desperately ready for what she will become 
Stepping rapidly out of her pitchy past
Towards freshness, her chance to succumb 

Wavered mirage solidified as suitable man
Opportunity usually slashed with cruelty
Sigrid's vehemence needed a complete ban
Skin uncovered to reveal her new duality

Kind intentions filled fault lines, offered aquit
Approaching face to face day stirred her 
Softer side on show, finally primed to submit
Pleas to release rancid shield heard her

New page turning requires vibrant virgin title
Her odd request, capable Ace conjured 
Renewed endurance from Libby arises vital
Crowned with liberation, love pondered 

Dazzling effect flung her mortality's motions 
Scope to partake in romance unafraid 
Libby's demeanor walks as waterfall, potion 
Christens her effusive decision made

Paper Or Plastic

~~Paper or Plastic~~
I went to the doctors the other day
 an embarrassing problem some would say
I cannot stop a tinkle when I walk 
and it causes me problems when I talk
I dare not laugh I told him so
 he answered don’t worry it will hopefully go
Until then you need some protection 
I have this underwear selection
He offered me a pack of panties;
 will you choose a set of these please?
I looked at them I was amused
 I could not think of which to choose
I read the labels rather quick and noticed the choice: 
 Paper or Plastic.........
Well with horror I thought of plastic underwear
 I would stick to every plastic chair
If I wriggled around for a start,
 I’d probably get a static spark
The chaffing would be so abhorrent,
 if I accepted some of these plastic pants
I looked then at the paper ones,
 but wondered what if I had the runs?
Can you imagine the mess I would be in,
 I couldn’t put soiled ones in the bin
This choice I thought is not for me, 
I will just learn how to walk, and not pee.

Premium Member Plastic Jewels

I spent my day shopping for rubies

for my Mommy who wished to mate

misheard though because I was small

asked for boobies instead for her date


the vendour asked me how many

I replied I only had money for one

he offered two small ones instead

in that way cost would not overrun


silicone or saline he wanted to know

water goes well with my rubber duck

I’d like them squeaky please dear Sir

but I can’t say what rhymes with suck


they go with shackles or do they not

would you kindly wrap this small gift

she said about suspense or suspenders

the present has to give her face a lift


then I need two rings but have little dosh

a stud is what she called Dady at night

ripple rings the two have also mentioned

but are the two tit offerings watertight 


must not wet sheets when evening comes

they tell me off when I pee in my pajama 

threaten me with going back into diapers

by the sound there is enough adult drama


cash or plastic the shopkeeper enquired

but you mentioned sodium chloride solution

plastic is like rubber and they’re not using any

and in any case there is quite enough pollution


here is my piggy bank for payment trick or treat

I give you that and can throw in some lubrication

from the night stand to oil this smooth transaction

now I must rush not to miss this eventful occasion


oh one last thing or am I pushing your pleasure

I think Dad needs a penal extension or a trembler

for when he runs out of steam in hot shot pursuit

this party is a treasure hunt they’ll always remember

Premium Member Temptation

Last night I met a gypsy girl, 
Temptation was her name. 
A breathless brazen beauty, 
a drop-dead gorgeous dame. 

I went to get my fortune told, 
ten dollars was a steal.
This magic mystic mistress
began to play reveal.

Her gypsy dress fell to the floor,
those red lips cast a spell.
They whispered wicked warnings,
then on her knees she fell.

She purred, she arched, she hypnotized,
my legs just turned to stone.
Her frenzied fleshy flaunting
caused blood to conquer bone. 

She crawled toward me on all fours
so ripe my mind did peal.
That silky sultry sex slave,
my body ached to feel.

A razor blade between her teeth
made short work of my clothes.
Her tempered tasteful teasing
finished where ardor flows. 

Still paralyzed but craving more,
she swallowed my desire.
Her lavish language, luscious!
An all-consuming fire.

She laid me down onto my back
then turned her world around.
This willful wanton woman,
she offered me the mound. 

I dived until I found the pearl,
her pleasure dome, my teeth.
Both fighting frenzied forces
while pleasure reigned beneath.

Our fervor flared, lit up the night,
consuming both our souls.
Our rampant raging rapture,
forever I'll extol.

She somersaulted onto lust...
a tear she did allow.
Her pounding paving pathways,
endless fields to plow.    

I'd pounce upon a fling like that,
Alas... Twas but a dream!
My hardened hunger's harnessed.
temptation made it scream!

Premium Member Annual Reindeer Christmas Dance

Grandpa reindeer were excited to watch the annual Christmas dance.
You should see my grandson twirl and kick and spin and prance!
This was from Prancer who knew this might be his last chance
To see the annual competitive reindeer Christmas dance.

Dasher and Donner shared a grandson, named Dabbity Booze.
He could clog the tails off the other reindeer’s blue suede shoes.
They were in the front row, sharing a laugh about today’s event.
Vixen thought his granddaughter’s dance was heaven sent.

Dancer still fancied himself the best reindeer dancer of all.
He came sliding in, gave a bump and a grind and started to fall.
Comet laughed his petootsie off, which was not very nice.
Cupid offered the rest of the reindeer a warm pizza slice.

Blitzen was the only reindeer not showing up this year.
He has contracted Alzheimer’s now, the poor old aged dear.
The competition was a success, the grandchildren did fine.
At the end they included their grandfathers in a fun congo line.

Premium Member Finding My Way

I can’t although I try
to go it all alone
I wish to feel God’s pleasure
but my heart feels like a stone

Jesus patiently waits for me
He doesn’t beg me for my time
I misuse the days God gives me
 believing that they are mine

All my moments yes are numbered
one day I will come to my last
Everything I want so badly
will be left in the distant past!

When I stand then before You Father
at Your throne I will confess
“I Knew You offered me more
yet I chose a path with less.”

So before my breath is taken
I relinquish my free choice
My own way is self deception
Now I’ll listen to You’re Son’s voice

For my path You have chosen
narrow and traveled by to few
It leads me to You Father
Your Bible verses they are true

Wisdom will be my chariot
lovely Hope will be my guide
Faith and Love true companions
but left behind will be my Pride!

Premium Member If I Decide To Write

Tonight I will not write
of stars, nor moon,
seeds of wisdom--
just mind flattering
bloom--

Nor will I write of love--
neither here nor above;
though our dearest 
sentimentality, the heart, 
too often foolishly enacts 
its own fatality;

and if I decide to write
(which I have not yet)
it will not be the common
dark vs light--
No, not this, low, literary-fruit
will I harvest, arm and lather;
pick high and low to gather--
likewise, I will divest of
good angels vs evil counterparts--
my rules, my pen; therefore, for me,
some spades can be clubs,
and all pointed diamonds I declare
are now well-rounded, suitable, hearts--

Nor will my Poetic-theme
be of great, vast seas; 
nor smaller phrases
of streams—the writer’s
usual surge to roar
that calms to a sleepy bore….

and certainly not
will I write about depth
of self esteem--
the shallow image of self
often incapable of 
of deep, worthy gleam;
though seldom do others 
see us mere puddles
as we to ourselves 
are wrong to deem
(though never approaching 
the great-self,
alas, most of us
will only let dream)--

so, tonight, self for me will rest...
and if brought to theme
it will only be for rhyme, my easy best;

Oh! That Poetic Shopping-cart:
shelves of prose! Aisles of mesmeric gleams!
like Poe’s mystic schemes--
clouds feeding voraciously off headless peaks—
those fantastical shoulders we desperate writers 
must climb if to find our lofty seeks--
all creative mind’s begging for such volcanic leaks—
No! I will not pontificate on these, for the best programmers
many do still believe are little more than
Charlatans or geeks--

Nor as subject will I attempt the Divine;
our soul’s hope to progress, as wine,
to some vintage state--though, without tasting,
when compared to life’s offered new...
such abstaining, perhaps, not worth
the spirit's residue--

Nor will I attempt metaphors yet more mysterious--
maybe, even delirious; though often told
such intoxicating views, like the morning dews
can be practical lifesaving for both greens and blues--
sadly, such pasture-valleys thoughtless men 
have turned to breathless, rat-infested alleys;

No! Tonight
should I decide to write
I will write of other things…

I will write...hum….
I will write…      simply, Goodnight….

Premium Member Alive

A single ray shone light through a knothole and anchored his thoughts

At daybreak for the spider-web’s shadow enlightened the beach hut

Tim had lived in a mansion but hardship had unburdened his soul

He was happy because the sun had risen once more over the waves 

Time for reflection prayer morning and gratitude in solemn meditation

Nature had given him sight while thick lenses made up for short vision

	
        A glimpse in the day of a sea faring poet

	Like driftwood he floated in his quiet mind


Mist ascended as he cleared misgivings and screaming resentments

A ship’s foghorn reminded him that he was able to hear and to listen

It seemed only yesteryear that he had crafted an old-fashioned ear trumpet

From a magnificent sea shell gently covered in iridescent mother of pearl

He paid attention to his small surroundings enchanted by sounds of the tide

An inner world of contemplation followed the shore line straight to his soul


	A silent reminder for a washed away scribe

	Like whispering chants of today and  tomorrow


He licked his lips and tasted salt and the voyage towards freedom

Embraced sea weed small pebbles and fragments of innocent time

Finely ground sand caressed his foundations and rooted his passion

Balanced roots of adventure with a medley of fragrance’s scent

Sea gulls guided his awakening in his modest harmony’s shelter

In his heart he touched a dolphin roaming the cusp of his being


	Tim could be whatever he wanted as long acquiescing
 
	Auspicious thankfulness to tame misguided intemperance 


Content with what once had been and was and might be or not

He stepped outside into a realm of lightness and nourishment

Gathered what the ocean offered and collected tinder and planks

Wreckage from riding the crest too ambitiously and close to the wind

Kindling was generous and kind to him on this fine passionate morning

And fire burst into life crackled surged and sputtered and never went out
 

	He had vowed to live on terms of beginnings and ends

	Until night would fall for eternity and one final breath

Premium Member Satan's Creed

When sin entered Lucifer’s heart,
the war against God he did start.
Why should angels be ruled by law
when in them could be found no flaw?

Satan offered a lawless realm
If they would help him take the helm.
A third of the angels took the bait
and were thrown out of heaven’s gate.

Against God’s Law, Old Satan fought
when through the serpent, sin he wrought.
He offered Eve a life of ease,
“Despise God’s law, do as you please.”

“Do as thou wilt, free from all guilt.”
is the creed on which Satan built
his rebel kingdom here below
as he walks on earth to and fro.
  
 In schools today children are taught,
to rid their mind from thoughts of ought.
Follow your heart the youth are told
do as you please, be brave and bold.  

Popular songs promote this creed
and Hollywood stars plant the seed.
Aleister Crowley’s evil books
guide what the industry cooks.

Sin has defiled the human heart,
So, man is doomed right from the start.
Trusting your heart can’t make you glad
but it will leave you very sad.   

Satan offers freedom without law,
but that’s freedom with a flaw.
 It leads to slavery to sin
and leaves you feeling hollow within.

God’s laws are like a strong guardrail,
that keeps your life from being marred.
They help to keep your life in check
So, you don’t make your life a wreck.
   
Don’t buy the lie that you are told,
no matter by whom it is sold.
The mess the world is in today,
is caused by living Satan’s way.

Adam and Eve learned the hard way
that disobedience does not pay.
They bought the lie and lost it all
and hid when God for them did call.

If you desire to be free,
return to God and bend your knee.
Ask Him to cleanse you from your sin
He’ll give peace and joy within.
