Premium Member Those Pair of Latent Eyes

She has a pair of subtle eyes to brood in forlorn,
the vile tale of heart rending cacophonic dissolution.
Those eyes were meek, never crude
to yearn the ties of proximity longed! 
Those meek adorable eyes have endured 
the absolute phases of reckless decimation:
have witnessed the brutal armageddon
of its  plunderers desolation,
who have thwarted  her genial expectations! 

She has those mystic musing eyes 
to impulse in pensive disposition,
an amiable abode of assured assertion,
to recreate the invisible affable bonding of elation;
a placid reciprocating ambience of virtuous relation:
has flair for the  protection, the care, the infallible affection, 
despite, those hands' propensity for imprudent desolation! 

Those pair of sober eyes longed to thrive in composure and attention; in delectation,never in aversion! 
Oh! what a horrific sight, with the axes in the hands, 
the slayers and usurpers of its tranquil serenity
 are waiting like sordid savages for her dire extinction!

Her latent moistened eyes are witnessing the march of those executioners:
are sobbing in utter horror and dismay,
cursing and shrieking quietly her non kinetic endeavours, 
to conserve the sacred entity in virgin forests; pristine, 
from the unscrupulous callous ventures of the predators.    

She has those whimpering eyes to foresight;
to remind the dire repercussions
of dereliction of reckless deviations;
Are wailing and mourning in utter seclusion,
the ceaseless thumps of the usurpers' annihilation.  

Those Pair of Latent Eyes are Nature's Eyes, neither vague, nor obscured:
silently screeching and watching, 
the relentless heedless ravagers' devastations,
Not yet any restoration, despite beseeching imploration,
needless to predict, will reveal in various manifestations!


Repercussions of circumstances

#Reppercusions_of_circumstances
Right before our minds tries to capture reality,  the very moment, we start to familiarize our warmth, instances of ones soul's comfort, the time when everything begins to form shape and when all its out and about,  a slap to ones dream, an explosion to ones reality

a time when what matters and real,  becomes visible, hopes and dreams which only existed in ones imaginary world, now looming into distress of failure, chances denied turn into, by wishes which this world can't ever grant access into. Seconds that makes all the right senses and reality but mattering no more, for they have dued, with moments melted by memories denied access into by permanent absences

a little, that remain wishes, nights we cry ourselves to sleep, days that rushed before we can say enough. Pillars and leaning shoulders, our lives depended on, which our breaths and presence derived strength from, but this universe has robbed us them, leaving holes and dunes to our whole being, reppercusions, for the scars and crimes made to our souls and peace, tormented nights and agony and circumstances of drained hopes and drowned happiness, broken arrows of better tomorrow, tales and songs every child dreamed of which life killed right before, the world made sense

Was a small town girl,
With big city views.
Gained a reputation,
On the front page news.

Met a rich young man,
While serving hors d'oeuvres.
She noticed his smile,
He admired her curves.

She was born dirt-poor,
He topped the A-list.
They slipped out back,
For a moonlight tryst.

A heavy kiss first,
Then the garments dropped.
No sooner began,
When the flashbulbs popped.

Blinded by the lights,
And caught unaware.
An eager press core,
Took shots of the pair.

Little did she know,
This senator's son.
Running for position,
Like his father had done.

Crowned a tabloid queen,
In the blink of an eye.
Made her friends all laugh,
And her parents cry.

Everybody in town,
Wants to know her name.
Now they chase her down,
As she hides in shame.

With no repercussions,
For the senator's son.
Daddy payed through the nose,
For the office he won.

A sad twist of fate,
Nobody would choose.
That poor little girl,
Got the D.C. Blues.

Premium Member Dancing On Thin Ice

the heart is always right
unless this time it’s wrong
and this time is not like all the others

this game he must not lose
too much at risk
no room for error

is it worth the risk
has he hit the point of no return
is it really worth the venture

if it’s a go
execution must be meticulous
indeed the stakes are high

this gamble must be calculated
pros and cons be tallied
well thought through in every detail

arsenal of charm and tactics
gone out on a limb
a joyride down a slippery slope

jeopardizing the crown
winner take all
in pursuit of the gauntlet

ripple effect of a backlash
a chain reaction
hanging in the balance

this sort of entanglement
not for the foolhardy
it’s no sitcom for buffoons

at the slightest hiccup
fallout could be disastrous
will he roll the dice

at what point does
temptation become obsession
and seriously cloud all judgment

precarious and unpredictable
impetuous and highly flammable
the repercussions for frivolity

the high cost of capricious reverie
its longterm aftermath
risky business

Dear Daughter

Avast emotional gulf manifested; courtesy

weighing excruciating deserved self loathing;
permanently deplorable depravity yoked;
unyielding choke hold, no longer asking

forgiveness, but airing errant culpability;
dada's guilt indefensible impropriety; begetting
permanent fallout; exacting just desserts; bitter
regret beast of burden (oxe see moron) housed
within self made villain; unjust to impinge your
providential opportunities, whose blessed smarts

legacy writ large across countenance this papa;
analogously das scribe bing mortal epitaph, while
dark shadows haunt this edgy rusty knight, who

once pawn time shrugged off mischievous
lascivious actions as payback; recognizably erred;
misperceptions (mine); deduced ex post facto,
when the missus doled out unpleasantries;
exploding anger; vented regarding significant
roiling perturbations harkening to her own

unrepentant poisonous stinging toxicity;
delivered courtesy birth parents; hands lack
king awareness to rock cradle with tender
loving care, hence burdened with childhood

years avoiding unseemly behavior; aware
that the mother of our two darling daughters
doth love and forgive me, though recouping
similar results with first offspring may remain
tense, and many years past not a happy camper.


Premium Member Whistle Blowers

Whistle Blowers
By Franklin Price
10/26/2019

Whistle blowers everywhere
When causes need a shove
Funny how they have no names
For finger prints, a glove

They come out of the woodwork
Close to the powers that be
Might suffer repercussions
If they gave identity

Want no risk for what they say
For fingers that they point
If they remain anonymous
Won't end up in the joint

Our Nation's founding fathers
Were whistle blowers too
They signed the Declaration
Disclosed who would lead the coups

Risked their lives and their possessions
For all that they believed
Drew the line within the sand
So no one was deceived

If you're a whistle blower
And what you say is true
Sign the declaration
That's the least that you should do

Premium Member Surrender and Spinning

The world spins and spins and spins and spins!
Do you feel the spinning yet?
Our administration has surrendered!
Lies are being told every single day!
The prison that was holding ISIS prisoners,
Was at the base that we surrendered!
      - The Taliban set them all free! -
General Flynn explains how these groups connect
How many facts will be ignored, before lies are seen?
Americans are in danger in this very evil turning point
   - It will bring repercussions for years to come  -
None of us are saying, not to leave the Middle East 
For the last time, it was the blatant, proven way it was done!
Stay vigilant my friends, because this is only the beginning
The world is and will be spinning, spinning, spinning!
          -  Stop, be still and pray –

Premium Member Hocus Pocus

Woozy the witch fuelled up her chrome studded besom 

Which was parked in the garage at the Cromlech at noon

She polished dusted and oiled the vintage broom’s motor

And applied magic spittle to fix butterfly wings and a rotor


Filled the hydraulic suspension with liquefied fairy dust

Serviced the turbocharged engine to ensure its robust

To weather belligerent storms and spells of bad nature

She made sure that bristles complied with Wiccan legislature


The Aberystwyth Magician’s Convention had been updated

To secure that tail twigs and seat were unicorn plated

Also that camshaft and pistons were organically manufactured

So when Celtic crosses adorned the chassis it became enraptured


Her lover soul-wizard had called for nocturnal cohabitation

High up in the sky so there was no room for any cunctation

She was the proud owner of a caravan feather duster model

With floor heating and magic carpets for passionate cuddle


They had to be careful though as not to inflate the air cushions

With too speedy pushing and pulling there might be repercussions

Not entirely slowly either because romping in a lay by in standstill

Would get them a parking ticket and the vehicle to go downhill


For that very purpose they had enlisted a strong busy bee elf

So when the chronometer ticked forward and rested on twelve

They came together with the help of sandalwood aphrodisiac potion

Holly jelly completed the feast when they changed tempo and position


The morale of the midnight star spanked romp is easily told

Take care of your vehicle and follow precautions when bold

Life is too short to have interrupted coital climax and pleasure

And thus you must adhere to abracadabra if you treasure your leisure

My eternal lubricant

My soul had long been troubled...
by hatred, 
dejectIon 
and contempt.
They were the poisons 
that flowed red in my veins,
burning like wildfire from my head to my toes,
as if this world were inhabited by demons:
that have teeth instead of fangs, 
tongues instead of flickers,
and take delight in loading tears with sorrow.

But from that day you responded to my greetings,
the heavy burden life placed on my mind...
was lifted by your single show of love,
such that I am full of smIles, 
joy and grace.
Your love is the lubricant:
that greased the torpedoes 
fired from the mouth of haters...
the balm that soothes 
the wounds my foes inflicted...
a calm for all my affliction.
You became my protective shield ~
that the fashioned weapons of enemies 
became like blunt sticks...
landing with no impact,
no pain,
no repercussions —
more of a toothless bulldog.

My machine needs more of your lubricant, sweet baby,
be my lifeblood, 
giving a kiss without a hiss,
that invisible driver 
that rolls sorrow into the abyss,
needing no assist to resist ~
evil over good —
an emolument as my emollient.
I can't just be insouciant 
to your love being my life's lubricant.
It is like trying to recant 
all the toxicants
that hatred had previously injected in my life.

So let the lubrication 
brought to oil the machine of my love
never dry,
let it run through my system:
cleansing every trace of hatred left behind.
Reborn my soul.
Redefine my purpose...
my eternal lubricant.

Premium Member The world we live in

The  world is in a great turmoil
All around  disquiet and confusion reign
Russia and Ukraine engage in war of attrition 
Massacre of genocidal proportions 
Has torn Gaza strip to a mountain of ruins
As Israel continues to exact her pound of flesh 
For Hamas daredevilry of 7th October 2023
Meting out in the process to Hezbolah and Lebanon
Repercussions for exporting and harboring terrorism
While at the same time paying Iran back in her own  coins  
In this season of teeth for tat
In the midst of all these the Syrian civil war has been reignited 
And Yemen has come under Israeli fire
As the Houthis join the fray in solidarity with Palestinians
In Sudan Generals battle for the soul of the nation 
With the world caring less for her plight 
While the disunited United Nations 
Remains powerless 
And the world powers continue to play
the ostrich
With claims and counter claims 
And macabre discordant tones
While the Middle East burns
And a possibility of world war three
Staring the nations in the face
The world needs to pause and rethink 
The world powers should wield the big stick
And bring their cronies to the table of dialogue 
The planet needs to be saved from the caricature men have turned it to
The United Nations should be liberated 
From the shackles of powerlessness 
To bark as well as bite
In implementation of its mandate
