Parachutes, Gates, and Mouth’s
Written: by Miracle Man
2006/2021

A parachute makes man light as a feather, 
Just a sudden jerk and then you float.
It works the same regardless of weather,
but failing to open there’s no antidote.

“A mind is like a parachute. It doesn't work if it is not open.”
Frank Zappa


In truth, both are not found to be oblate,
and about gates and mouth’s I’m predisposed.
Both require a set of hinges to operate,
and are often open when they should be closed.

“Mouth’s are like gates,
usually open when they should be closed.”
Tom

Gates & Mouth’s
(Alike they are in two respects)
Written: by Tom Wright

In truth, both are not found to be oblate
And about gates and mouth’s I’m predisposed.
But both require hinges to operate
And often are open when they should be closed.

Premium Member Skipping a Stone

I skip one stone across the pond,
an oblate onyx dotting i's
in footles of a vagabond
who tiptoes after tiger eyes.

Perhaps the ripples left behind
are teary runes of gray moonstone
by starry sapphires once declined
for poesies of chalcedone.

In unison do pines recite
around the swaying cellophane
with spruce in verses malachite
on tawny-needled counterpane.

Soon aloe waters recompose
an epilogue of silent prose.

Premium Member Bulimia

Fine foods leave behind a clean plate
Great meals create stomachs oblate
But bodies too fat
Crave abdominals flat
And can't wait to regurgitate

Tiptoe Through the Warming

The toes
of Michelangelo's David
are musculinely strong,
second toe a touch longer
than the big toe
as befits a gifted man.

This is how I walk the earth -
in Michelangelo's toes,
gripping the soil
just hard enough
to keep it steadily waltzing
around the sun
in its Galilean galleon.

My toes tread carefully
among the growing leaves of grass
and upward-glancing, jogging centipedes;
carefully on this oblate earth
with all our growing growing woes
to keep my footprint small,
I walk on my toes.
