Andromeda and Back

I watched as the dandelions blew away in the breeze
Like small tornadoes beneath me
You chuckle, then rush to collect them
Scared to see some unique begin to bloom?
Hunger rumbled through my body
Like a shouting gladiator
Piercing my stomach with his blade

Gyros spread across the set table
I watch as you sink your teeth into them
Starving like a ravenous tiger
Yet a heart softer than lavender
So, darling, let the games begin
Please offer me your hand to hold
Whisper to me, skin warm like tea
Olive complexion luring me in
Like I'm stuck inside a trance
Take this break while the tides are high
Guide me into this deep ocean
I'll backstroke through love's reservoir

This aura, it calls out my name impatiently
Sandalwood dances to my brain
The scent attracts me like a magnet
Farther away than Andromeda
My worry for the future, it drifts away
Now that ecstasy has incarcerated me
Nothing can ensure my soon release


Premium Member Pepperoni Pizza

Make 
                                     mine spicy
                                  Mama Mia. How
                                I love a spicy pizza.
                           Make it cheesy, so that it'll
                      please me. Oh and, in the middle
                    put a large                    pepperoni
                 so big and                          round that
                I'll get fat                              even when 
              I look at that.                        No, that's not
            a doughnut hole                     that you see now
          in the middle. That's the piece of pepperoni! How I  
        wish that I could color in the center spicy red. You will
    have to use instead what you've got inside inside your head:
 Your imagination, right? Then imagine one more thing. Can you
guess? Sink your teeth into this pizza Yummy yum, now take a bite!

Moonstruck

Tonight the black cats and witches run amuck,
Tonight is the night I once again become moonstruck.
When will you come to me out of the mist,
You must come soon, I insist.
When the midnight hour draws near,
Everything will become clear.
Where are you now,
Can you hear me call to you without uttering a sound?
I hear only the quickness of my heart's beat,
Smell only the sweetness in the air I breathe.
I can sense you near,
Yet I feel no fear.
I know that tonight I shall give all of my being to you,
Yet ever since I've met you that is all I've wanted to do.
I want to give you my soul,
But that you have already stole.
Come to your bride,
Draw me to your side.
Sink your teeth into my nape,
And seal our fate.
Before the morn,
Anew vampire shall be born.
Take me as your bride forevermore,
And we shall be apart nevermore.

How do i taste?

you sink your teeth into my flesh 
but only until you reach bone

you carve your initials with my own blood
and remind me i am not free

you use my back as a platform for better reach
hand me sweet fruit and tell me stories of hardship

you blind me from sight and then explain the world as if i never could see

you rewrite my story and force me to recite
i ask for mercy and you rip out my tongue
and demand i repent

pride towers over your humanity, 
leaving you in the shadow of desire

you feed it leaving sacrifices of the weak at it’s altar

innovation as means for brutality 
civility becomes a caste of righteousness 
only the affluent can afford

difference becomes indifferent 
the desire for understanding a distraction

while pools of suffering overflow the streets
waiting for you to drown
until it conquers you

Premium Member Fartology

How did the phrase “Spitting Image” originate
Seems kinda gross to me
Now here's something I've often wondered about
Do Queens expectorate... surely Kings do
For that matter, they pass wind too
Some people... okay some men...
Make a big production out of passing wind
Lifting one leg and doing a slow fist pump
Followed by a “whoooooeeeeee
That surely was one of my best ones ever!”
Strange how us so-called sophisticated humans
Sometimes pretend the foul odor was perpetrated
By someone else in the room
Suspiciously looking around holding our nose
And waving our other hand saying
“Wow! Something must have died up there!” 
Bodily functions are as normal as apple pie
Uh, that's not really a good analogy!!!
We used to call it “passing wind”
Now a much more sophisticated definition has evolved
According to the dictionary, the word “fartology”
Is simply defined as the act of loudly expelling air
Through the aperture in one's derriere
You are not far from the end
Another sign that you ain't no spring chicken
Is when you repeat the same sentence twice in a row
Is when you repeat the same sentence twice in a row
Also when you forget to zip up after you pee
What's worse though is when you forget to zip down
When everything hurts and what doesn't hurt doesn't work
It feels like the morning after and you haven't been anywhere
Your knees buckle but your belt won't
You sink your teeth into a steak and they stay there
You sing along with elevator music
You have a dream about prunes
Your nose and ears are hairier than your head
In dog years you're dead
Growing old is mandatory, growing up is optional
And finally... inside every old person is a young person
Wondering what the hell happened!

Spring Break

Nothing more that Ben and Jerry enjoy
Than Florida on Spring Break
Hanging out there at this moment
On this bright and sunny day

Swimming in the ocean
Just off the Southern shore
Waiting for a nice plump student
To dip his toes in and more

Nodding in agreement
They both would like that very much
After all what would two Great Whites
Rather crunch for lunch

Conversation rolls around to Daytona
Reminiscing of the time
Ben chowed down on four collage kids
While Jerry gorged on Nine

Yes, Spring is in the water
Where both the sharks relate
Nothing better in Florida when
You can sink your teeth into Spring Break

Premium Member My Radiator Leaks Or My Exhaust Backfires

Every time I sneeze or cough

Either my radiator leaks or my exhaust backfires!

Shouldn't be a big surprise

It's a definite sign we ain't no young chicken no more

When you grunt just putting on your socks

It's the ninth inning with two men out

If you have to turn up the volume on TV

Till it shatters the wine glasses in your dining room credenza

You are not far from the end

Another sign that you ain't no spring chicken

Is when you repeat the same sentence twice in a row

Is when you repeat the same sentence twice in a row

Also when you forget to zip up after you pee

What's worse though is when you forget to zip down

When everything hurts and what doesn't hurt doesn't work

It feels like the morning after and you haven't been anywhere

Your knees buckle but your belt won't

You sink your teeth into a steak and they stay there

You sing along with elevator music

You have a dream about prunes

Your nose and ears are hairier than your head

In dog years you're dead

Growing old is mandatory, growing up is optional

And finally... inside every old person is a young person

Wondering what the hell happened!
