Sinister Thoughts
Keep your head up above the surface

Time Zips By At Lightspeed
Before scant opportunity
to make amends totally tubular slips away,
I (one generic doubting thomas)
reach out across cyberspace without delay
jumpstarting and kickstarting reflections
linkedin with fifty plus shades of gray
snapchatting and twittering
do you know the way to San...

Passionate Hours At Palolem Sands Goa
I glimpse the tidal waves, rise high,
Sweaty brows drip, a dry.
surf boarders and  dipper are so many,
dolphin rides touts coerce you for just a few penny.

red vested lifeguards always on their toes,

Zipperella the Cross Dresser
Rubber lover, Zipperella, 
is not a brother or a fella. 
He has false tits and kitten heels, 
not a chest and ankles made of steel 


His spiky rubber bag is old, 
cleverly patched with a...

You Ask Who She Is.
Elegant, yet simple, confident,
Mistaken for a seventeen year old at times,
Goes to the park every weekend, 
She spends her summers with her family, 
Volleyball under the rain, soda is her addiction,
Education keeps her going, Sugary,...

Premium Member The Murderous Run To Safety
As we climbed down the nets
Into the landing crafts
Veterans of theatre
With a mixture of drafts

In the distance through the spray
We could sight foreign lands
Normandy it is
After many months being planned

Closer and closer
With explosions all around

Unfurled an awesome arc sounding like a bomb shell
Seven streaks of glistening light rays the...

Again They Visit
Christmas is almost here
And just as I feared
Those ghosts came back
Even this year they appeared

Doubt came and sucked the happy from me
Smiled and sucked some more so greedy
Astonished I wasn't ready
My footing shaky not so...

A Life In Waiting Is a Weight In Living
A life in waiting is a weight in living,
the more you shove your tongue
down the swallowed route
the more you'll be wrung
and suffering breath for the mute.
If I didn't have an Offence- O-meter
I would be happier,
but...
