Corruption
CORRUPTION
by
JOHN M. ARRIBAS

I thought that if you were altruistic and right
That alone was the strength needed to fight
To...

Ofps: Orders For Protection, Divorce's Pre-Emptive Scorch-The-Earth Weapon

Mind your use of me when making a full stop with finishing your  point
This can either overstate or understate your completed thought

Premium Member Exaggeration
An astonishing use of words,
Penned by writers from best schools,
Making writer sage, clown, or fool.

The muddy river was bone dry.

Premium Member It's a Pain
A poet must have
a wound somewhere,
a little pocket
in which a hurt is kept.
Emily had her fears,
Eliot had his guilt, for Dante
it was his love for Beatrice

My nurse got in touch
I did not expect much

but on one thing I failed,
Cholesterol off the scale
which was bad news for little old me.

because I feel my blood now hemagglutinate.

Remain in my blood vessels and just circulate

Premium Member I Wonder If Death Will Be Anything
I wonder if death will be anything

Stretching the imagination
And allowing for opportunities 
Of love and selfless giving. Freely
Recognizing one’s demise isn’t something we wish
To dwell upon more often than...
