the one who might
she has been looking for someone, since before she knew the word for wanting, “please, have you seen this person?” someone who’s tall and blonde and strong when she scratched her knees falling down the monkey bars —he can catch her when she falls, and lift her like she is air someone who's kind and has a puppy when she first held...

Diner Might
In nineteen sixty-three, May twenty-eight, three youngsters in a Woolworths five-and-dime sat down and asked for coffee. This was war. In Jackson, Mississippi, way back when, outrageous things like this riled up the pack. The photos still exist. You feel the hate. To ask for coffee, then, was such a crime, so unacceptable to local law that men (look at the...

Turn Left at the lights
Obtuse abuse..rude platitudes shout.. About alternative attitudes..generations.. Scream at different altitudes & latitudes.. Venerate mandarins sins.. Generate pernicious vicissitudes Vicious avaricious machinations.. Celebrate nations chagrin… Pander to propaganda spin.. AI garlanded reputations.. Cohorts in suits cavort in cahoots.. Kiss or diss..the abyss Hiss of mis-information bliss.. Arrests..capitalist corporate conquests...detests protest.. Well got egregious prior & previous.. SO Whatever your hue or world view.. We know what's wrong..doesn't belong Deliriously daring to...

The Eclipse of Two
Besotted, ensnared and diverged thy pupil Dilate the ache 'pon holy gate Sewn son to sun of love'n marred and married gait Palpate the touch o'titular chance Kiss'd and carresed thy senile smile Tipped'n tallied bashful sway, to fall Away, and away, eyes to 'ssemble And resemble the semblance of valour and holy hour Mine to my own, to pitiful ponder Shone Sun...

Brain Over Brawn
Brain Over Brawn Actions may thunder, but my words ignite, A blade of wisdom, cutting sharper than might. Not just whispers, but a raging inferno, Lighting the world with the spark of the wise. They lift, they strain, their muscles implore, While I wield knowledge, a much sharper tool. Strength is fleeting, a flicker, a spark, While ideas burn bright, a light in...

She might be an angel
She is in silver colored clothes, Alike the flowing moonlights Slithering on the surface of ice Of the pond, feelings are frozen And melting by the dazzling flare To restore ripples lingering again Into meek crystal hares Wandering in your gaze With full of glimmering lights My shyness find no place to hide And my soul helpless seized I noticed them...

Premium Member I wait for the one who might return someday
I wait for the one who might return someday, but this "might" deceives me a little more each day, like a distant song slowly fading in the autumn dusk, an echo of lost footsteps on the forgotten paths of time. How long could patience last? Now I feel that I’ve grown tired of feeding myself with these hollow promises, like shadows...
