The Eye of the Sea - Part 2
Continued from The Eye of the Sea part 1


The first mate, dour and sparse of words
Claimed few things were his pleasure
And too much beer had brought him here,
That and the rumoured treasure.

The cook was thin,...

The Lover
It was a sultry summer day,
The air lay thick and still.
The leaves hung flaccid on the trees,
As if slumbering in a deep sleep.

No birds were to be heard
For they were hiding from the heat.
The awful...

Mixed Emotions
I hear by now say that thine self is fed up honey.

       Distraught--
       Finished.

Glytch, Itch, Witch, Switch, Twitch
Sometimes I muse that life can be a *itch
When every prospect seems of rosy hue
From cerulean sky a fatal glitch
Precipitates its mischief; then I rue
That naive expectation of a child
On whom Dame fortune yet has...

Taken
The clock is chiming
Since ancient times
My mind is roaming...I'm in a haze of bewilderment
I'm sprawled in a puzzling maze
Thinking deeply...
wandering...contemplating

My voice is rumbling,
altering into whispers
troubled by the clock
bursting my skull open
releasing tension
oh, how agonizing
deepening in...

Premium Member The Parting of the Green
The road winds, black and long, across the field.
Fellow travelers merging as traffic flows,
the freedom gained by linkage seems unreal
across the world on rivers others go.

Nine Haiku About One Thing
And she picked it up -
The sleek black and white feather,
Threw it in the bin.

Black and white against
Unrelieved grey. Graceful curve
Against the straight lines.

A flash of beauty
In the gutter. Tidied up
To dull, gritty grey.

Between you and me
Sounds of near sudden death
Softly overbearing
Plot your dispositions carefully
You would find yourself wrapped around the tree
It should have been me
I should have taken your place
Unglue your painful misconception
Of...

The Enemy Incubates
They could be anywhere
Greased on my bus fare. Any Tom Dick or Jack and Solitaire 
On every bit of bittie bit, on any drop of there.

They're everywhere in ambush
On every pull you push. Each panicked...
