Long Push the envelope Poems

I was a happy, fluent linguist, fruitfully helping revive endangered languages,
As colorful rainbows walk across the sky, in buttery hours, turned languorous.

I enjoyed doing practical fieldwork, and establishing useful literary programs,
As the honeysuckle sun loves...

the new renaissance
pushed the envelope too far
actions speak louder than words
under my thumb from your torture
I must confess im obsessed
cant stop thinking about you
for one day

No need for us to buy records or movies
just disgusting

Inflected Speech 
Inflected Speech 
 
 
She said “is this all that you are getting this morning” 
OH the connotations of that speech 
There is at least three interpretations of inflected speech in me.

Young men in virile stride
    Pass to see the prize that awaits.


Competitive glares that will push the envelope
   Who will stand to accept the honor?


"You will never win the Spaceman...

You fought back the feelings to resist the inner pain

In anguish your head spins as pea soup,
In madness the silence etched in the fragmentation of the lower portion of skull
A baracade is opened doors in...

hello everyone
after reading SENORITA SEXY SENRYUS by Panagiota Romios
I was inspired to write the entry below
I was reminded of a late poetess Pam who wrote under the name of gungalo
always did gungalo push me to...

to live my life like there is" ...

Right With You

Love me gently 
Love me right 
Right as rain 
Right is mighty 
Mighty emotional 
Mighty in love 
Love me always 
Love me now
Now or later 
Now or never 
Never leave me 
Never push

Within Dantesque fields of dust a calcifugous crushing crust
In layers of lactating lust demoniac deception a deist distrust
Hibernating hallucinations of hope in cathedrals trying to cope
As we push the envelope on a rambunctious rapacious slope

Tangled...

Glass walls and fake notions
Fake love but real emotions

I'm shielded but vulnerable
This feeling is incontrollable

Everything I believed was a lie
Fairytale endings will just pass me by
I'm not the man I thought I would be
The future...

Why should everything be about rules?
Why can’t we push the envelope a little and have some fun?

Why live in a space where rules
have the ability to decide our happiness...

What about the woman that touched the...

Inhale,

Exhale.

 

Numb to sensation

Emotionless pulsation

Travels up the spine

Tingling, stinging divine.

 

My own frailty

Does not betray me

Push the envelope,

Tighter, grows the rope.

 

Play with fire,

Dance on razor wire.

Unstoppable ignorance

Furthers the always expanding dissonance.

 

Just breathe in...

She floats into the room -
Miss Fannie Lou Nance,
her long black dress
flowing without movement
as though adorning
a mannequin on wheels,

her small hat perched
on her elegant white hair.
A soft black cape warms
her shoulders, highlighting
the lovely broach at...

This here I declare my first
attempt at the amazing pantoum
In my virulent, insatiable thirst
to impress all the poets in the room

Why do I love the amazing pantoum?
that's a question with an easy answer
it impresses all...

I'm going to take more chances
start living on the edge
step over every line drawn
push every envelope
going to stop thinking twice
gamble on what's ahead
quit living life so safe

I'd rather be wrong for loving you
even if it...

Sitting back and laughing 
at the masses,
I could not have planned it any better.
Social chaos rains down on the privileged.

Constantly balking at the system,
I dare play a game that I control.
Sensing that I will never...
