Premium Member I was born there
I was born in the odds, I lived through it, dotted the lines on my path I was born among hyenas, these scrambling to stiffen the last breath, Amidst hurts and hate first from home, A lot cast in mirage and fantasies, Hope too soon cut short, Survival, a struggle, Unexplainable Fratricidal warfare, The closer in blood, the more bloodier, A...

In the Veil of Oddity
Amidst the enigmatic tides of time, peculiar occurrences unfold As light withdraws, distant and aloof, leaving shadows to elongate The sun's standstill seems to stretch eternity, casting deeper shades Breath, once warm within the breast, crystallizes into icy blocks Fear's scorching touch dissolves the flesh from fragile bones In this epoch of strangeness, the valley plunges like a voracious grave Souls...

My chicken has been flickin' Her feathers in the hay The cattle waged a battle In their field the other day A turkey feeling perky Jumped up and ran away Feeling daft, I laughed and laughed, That's all I've got to say....

Moon's Oddity
Who will try to comprehend? Appreciate the moon’s character She is hushed, quite soundless Inept to express her frame of mind Through the paper and the pen… But she envisions us her spirits In the form of vivid sunspecs, Different contours and diverse chapters. She is vibrant With all the monumental voyages; The children stories we heard Made us wrathful, left us wondering About her cabalistic...

Thrive In Oddity
If I said all I saw, No one would believe me. If I said all I felt, No one would show empathy. All I can do is live in awe; Of how strong I have grown to be. Hoping that someday, I will thrive in this oddity....

Seek calm voice In odd noise That churns poise Know fond say In new play This bright day Taste fine peaks As wins streak Where you speak Come fling psalm To soothe balm In words calm Can you hear Love right here That brings cheer Time to walk Your sweet talk As you stalk Prize true grace That moves face In grand trace Charm words well In sure tell How love dwells In your eyes Soul moves sighs In grand highs Leon...

Premium Member Easter 2018 a Space Oddity
EASTER 2018: A SPACE ODDITY Two thousand eighteen a space oddity of sorts. We’ve beamed back to my home, dear Scotty. Dynamic duo of entertaining sisters on cruise, in airports. I’ve called up the past, for a sprinkling of Easter esprit. Hmm...hummingbird cake, what a delectable dessert to bake. Not from the sunny South, but I think I’m up to the...

The Oddity of the Truth
The oddity of the truth To shift through information And false intelligence Delivered by men in suits Paid lackeys reading from a cue Semitic voices Feeding the air way With hatred Compliant press repeat the untruth Rill, we believe Wax lilies in the pond is real...

Mister Oddity
He’s a strange kinda guy, even he wouldn’t challenge that assertion When you see him, you sense something’s a bit off But don’t bother asking him, his appearance will tell you why Wearing clothes that don’t color coordinate; his socks are always either Oxford or silk, and his bow ties are never fully clipped He likes to arrange his peas and carrots ...

Premium Member Oddity
Now in this place I hear Echoes of long ago Sift from shadow play here The open road beckons Echoes call out to me Songs of ancient days I sense new beginnings Stuff of fond surprise await Scented fragrance in the breeze Brand new start sets free Old journal memories Light for the morning glow Breezy buzz of jazzy noise Murmurs prompting journeys I waltz into sacred moments Feel the...

Space Oddity Or What
>Space oddity or what? Technology has advanced down here. By down here, I mean, on planet Earth. We are all living peacefully. No poor people do I see. Bet you wonder where I be? ‘Dragon, stop messing about. Listen to me. I’m the boss. If not I’ll tell you to, ‘go to sleep.’ Phew that worked! Now let me just peek. Golly is...
