Long Tweaks Poems

Psychologically still thirteen 

Ordinarily meaning pre Internet days
familiarization with me would entail
bringing the avid listener 
into my private mancave hideaways
less a physical place than a juncture in relationship, 
(whereby one or the other of us)...

I don't know what came over me that day - an instant of weakness after years of resistance, I suppose.

My beaming spouse leads me, a dog on a short leash, into the forbidden citadel, the...

“Let’s pop in to the rescue shelter, hon,” my wife proposed, “it’s been there now, as I recall, for close to seven months,
And I got scolded pretty good by you-know-who last week when I confessed...

I dreamed a lot when I was young,
my mind still wanders to this day,
so much I wanted to achieve,
so much that I yearned to stay.

Was once a wide-eyed optimist,
believed I’d do it all with class,
but...

Braid My Hair

Won’t you please braid my hair?
As you part your legs and I sit in between.
I feel the strength of your thighs as I close my eyes
And you comb those rough edges….
Tweaks of pain...

The moment comes for sad farewell;
A brief song sums goodbye that tells;
Feelings go numb with parting spell.


So much of art in lines that speak;
Words from the heart with ebbs and peaks;
Space and time part in...

I believe I can visualize a bird and a tree.
This is something I could describe as poetry.
As yet, allow your inner poem to flow freely.
It offers a firm base on which to uplift deeply.

The beauty...

Twist in your dark deep eyes flit me, your body engulfs the thoughts. 
Crazy upstart, floating lock, graceful body dexterous striptease dance,
Walk me to your room, steroid zombie in moves, rave, exult to crave.

such a secret important word
danced around verbally
conditioning you the way they want
for utmost power
if i had it my way
i would have you ring a bell everytime their secret word
tweaks you out

Jeese 
I wonder what the...

Sometimes In silence
I question citrine stars~
what streams beneath
murky waters,
Is hope still flowing 
through rusty ripples,
why do we live
in an orb 
of sheer blindness, 
would the wind
ever seize tunnels
behind the black hole,
or are we destined 
to...

Trump Over and Over

Around with him have to hassle and hassle
So he built Trump Tower which is a castle
And of does deliberately seem to be proud
Can always be seen standing out in a crowd.

Trump surely...

She's a Cyndi Lauper look-alike.
had a ‘one hit wonder’ back in the day;
a tune about some balloons and a bike.

She's not new anymore
but still a ‘hip’ artifact for sure.
Glittered eyebrows, bangles, and beads,
she’s what any...

Seconds, minutes, and hours
Days, weeks, months, and years
Pass so quickly with the breeze's tears
With no limits to stop their powers

Lives are tied to their waists
Where no one can escape into different times
That touched their lives...

As I drift through all the loneliness 
That seems to harness itself to the day
We put ourselves out there in hopes we sway
A love that will portray the kind of girl
That makes all my loneliness...

I drive an appetite that never tires; 
A gaping heart engulfing all it seeks. 
I own a will that constantly misfires; 
A mind subverted by its own critiques. 
I navigate the valleys and the peaks...

Make a start
Not in any order
Go on the outer
Then circle the border
Fly your kite, let it soar
Do not take less, when you can get more
Never you sigh,
Or ask the reason why
Break free, break free
Glide through...

An Opinion blindly thinks, but
Boldly speaks out loud
Judgment of...Perspective on...
Doesn't matter to the crowd
As quick as it leaves the lips, it's retold with words anew
Snowballs fast, has bigger plans 
For Opinion's point of view

Marriage bed’s empty though Love's nest is near,
Comforters gathered can’t pillow flown warmth!
Poetry’s widow? Both lovers feel lost!
Poetry born though perhaps worth the cost?

Buried at work, Men support Women's child,
Often miss most of a child's...

I have many new friends among me,
And all of them are unique;
From painfully shy to gutsy,
They all have their own little tweaks;

There’s Claude, who is the “Ladies Man”,
At least that’s what he thinks;
He’s the one...

Alone I roam the dreamland wood
sombre and empty, dark my mood
vain hope to meet my love denied
a throbbing, pumping ache inside 
afar a gleaming stream of blue:
mauve, purple, lilac mixed in hue
‘longside the one in...

I am not good at critiques. I am better at praise.
I like almost every poem. I want to elevate and raise.
Reading poems is a hobby that makes me feel good.
I know I should critique. As...
