Premium Member The Scream Painting by Edvard Munch 1893
Turpentine waters of paranoia ripple beneath an opaque surface, merging with the burnt umber sun, ravenously setting over the savage distance. Did the earth just crack open within its core...? An ungovernable fear hastens— up my spine ...

On lunch, munch, and punch
And leaving all else, they debate on lunch. To one, lunch time was waste, hence, break-less munch. The other felt, lunch-less Would no new glory bless To UK, nor hoary Return to old glory, Lunch is a place mid-stream-- Island to which all swim, If cooler breaks are fine, Need for lunch-break’s genuine, For, from stomachs come working peoples’ punch. ____________________________ Happenings |20.12.2024|humour,...

Mauricio, the merry moose in Lanny Locke’s garden let loose. He munched on mulberries, chips, chestnuts and cherries. The produce he poached was profuse! His cousin, Carol the cute caribou consumed cucumber, cabbage and cashews; and Kory the cute koala wandered down from Walla Walla bringing broccoli, beans and barbecue!...

Appeal to a Peel
The bite was a crunch. So wonderful! One's teeth could do that kind of thing. Some later bites, performed with age, cause pain, so awful, so dreadful! One's bites can do that kind of thing.

Premium Member The Scream - Ekphrasis On An Edvard Munch Piece of Art
Oblong outlines of a soul Stretched in elliptical misery Redefines the perfect circle To a breakable volatile tautness Loosely cloaked in sheaths of epitonic blue Draped upon the shrinking body to hide a terrified world Dressed in swirling ominous patterns of anonymity To be lost within the deepest abyss of fatal fear Planted like a tenuous girder of iron truth On a...
