Premium Member Moral Contemplations

Must we honor the promises we make in dreams?
The same moral aspects would pertain, it seems, 
and fate would (if the rules of justice still apply), 
a dream's blissful amorous rendezvous, deny.
Must I live my waking life bound by dream pledges?  
It's too much to trim Scarlett Johannson's hedges.

Namer

A tear on your cheeks that meets your lips, 
A soft plight on sight, that seeks your taste, 
Dance of your name on my bare tongue, 
Wants me turn bare, into sweet summer love, 
I know only your name, 
And I dance on it, 
My each cell sparks at your only name, 
In my whole being, I, pertain to be yours, 
No name to me, only yours, only yours.

Council of the Wicked

As the man walks alone he sees the joy from the counsel that has become the Pharisees.
They have given the oath of rituals that pertain to the past and not for the future.
Looking at the actions and expectations, he sees them like the corrupted Phrarisees.
What they have done is go against the Edenic beauty of nature!

Entitlement at young ages is the poison of love!
At young ages they have for fame and dishonor sacrificed their purity!
The red blood has left the once peaceful and love -filled dove!
It is now a blood-stained corpse that has lost it’s purity!

Shifting their gears to the left on an empty tank!
Has allowed them to become morally bankrupt!
They want a bridge and residence to make their bank!
Their family and views have lead all their morals to become corrupt!

In the beginning if you cannot build with me to become my partner!
Then do not have the expectation for me to make you my life partner!


Premium Member Blest Compassion Delight

"According as his divine power hath given unto us all things that pertain unto life and godliness, through the knowledge of him that hath called us to glory and virtue."  Peter 1:3 of the King James Bible

Blest to blossom midst bestowments' bliss
compassion calls for courageous concern
driving dreams toward divine delight.

Premium Member Thought of the day

do blessings we pray for pertain to form 
or do we seek God’s touch, tender and warm?

Premium Member Reach

Reach, the heavens blue sky fall beneath 
thou journey unforeseen story 
The soul thriving everyday survivor breathe 
we pertain the endurance to live 
Soul of mankind reality I exist only 
beaten down to one knee my kneel 
But I will not lay down my arms 
my reach within my grasp 
My last breathe be my success 
though I am still less to them 
I am me myself my portrait paints 
not the pain I suffer my eyes 
But a spirit arose from the grave 
I reach deep inside darkness 
My belief I can be anything I desire 
other than what they make me 
I am different in myself my walk 
be of one in itself am I saved 
Deaths burning desire I do not fear 
it comes not quickly in haste 
But the experience to learn my ability 
that I reach for stars above 
There, I belong as moon lights the dark 
my reach far more you not know 
The one that died inside just to be me 
a darkness covered beneath soul


Premium Member Coastal California

Beneath the sun-kissed sky of Coastal California's domain,
Where Pacific waves meet the land, an eternal refrain.
Golden shores stretch along the rugged terrain,
A canvas painted with nature's utmost pertain.

Majestic cliffs rise with stoic grace,
Overlooking the ocean's vast embrace.
Seagulls glide on the breeze, a ballet in the air with grace
As the salty mist weaves tales without balance.

Beneath the azure sky, dolphins play,
With joyful leaps and flips, they lead the way.
Silhouetted against the sky so sunny,
Their laughter echoes, in a complete harmony.

Whales, majestic giants of the deep,
Gracefully traverse the waters, secrets to keep.
In rhythmic dance, their tails let tales slip,
Of distant journeys and ancient trails to keep.

Surfers ride the waves with skill and grace,
Chasing the rhythm of the ocean's embrace.
As the swell rises and the tide pulls in balance,
They become one with nature, in the Pacific’s embrace.

Premium Member Thankfulness: First Place Contest Winner

In the rich story of life—moments float and sway
            An innocuous glow of thankfulness ignites the soul
A sturdy stance of gratitude entails a virtuous array
Spread all virtues—never tumble into a hole.
                        Profits from asset auditing—are cruel to amount.
Since there exist too many advantages to count.
Holding a diary of praise—is an honor to fount.
      Appreciation and delight serve as a memorial
            Gratitude enhances life—echt for math tutorial
                        Clears the soul of sorrow and pain, pictorial
Thanks soothe, boost the future, and shine the way
            Life's epic theatrical soliloquy—until man is whole
      Let us pick such noble ethics—ranks wall mount
            And let your ilk heart— pertain to be manorial.

The Titan of the Ebony Isles

Laid bare far beyond civilizations glare, sank the ever-defiled bowels of a forgotten lair. 

Nameless, voiceless and visually uncertain, 
a silhouette hidden behind an ebony curtain, 
as though it itself is unsure to pertain 
any what description of its own existential pain.  

It rots, an inexorable stench permeates the air. 
Behold the Titan whose size boasts beyond compare. 
Clouds and mists of fetid odor, scurry across the dark skies and forever over. 
A haunted smell, wrought from a carcass from hell, where the vengeful dead stubbornly dwell. 

Abandoned beyond those ebony mountains, whose dying blood flows forth from damnable fountains. 
Joining oceans of red, always starved but always fed, from the Titan who lies dying upon his ebony deathbed.

Azriel Azathoth

An Angel of death, 
uttering words upon shimmering breathe
of a means to cheat death.

She came, she flew on wings of a darken hue
To teach of a prayer which could undo.

But it was not to be, 
to allow the dead to see
And so banished was she.

Deep beneath the heavens maw
Deeper betwixt shadows bound by lights law.

Alone, in darkness she lay
with no Sun to declare any time of day.
Alone, she could only pray
that her children would find their way.

Whose children yet still adore
The Angel who spoke of a distant shore
Where the dead could do more

Than suffer and writhe in pain
A distant shore that was sure to pertain
A lasting happiness to forever reign.

Azathoths children were left with a taste
Of knowledge incomplete, feeling it a waste
They sought to dig further into the grave of heresy
That their mother had unearthed for them to see
And even though it was not to be,
They continued to unearth the dead to see
what they could once more become and be.

Empty Nest Syndrom

Are you thinking about your child whether
alone can take steps to measure?
Can she attend social interaction
to take a view in total?

Are you upset for kids to go 
away from home, though you didn't show?
Do you feel a sense of loss of purpose,
or stress feelings that your mind crosses?

These symptoms pertain to ‘empty
nest syndrome’ makes parents testy.
Keeping one's mind engaged with work the whole day 
brings back peace in the soul.

Premium Member Psychology Of Poetry

psyches of all bards and writers
synchronized crowd swimming in waters
yuppies and brave souls unheard by all
chanting audience in an imaginary stall
hearts we hide as words unfold
on paper and scrolls, always young never old
lasting ink or cellphone battery so strong
of thinkers and scribblers of prong
genetics of poetry or honed skill
your poetry in a song that inspires and fill

only the strong survives and remain
filaments of musing, project and pertain

poetic justice is justice for all
or no balance like a bouncing ball
ever and never will an artist to surrender or fall
triumphant in all writings, big or small
remnants of your undying soul
yours is the scepter and crown and tiara
  like winner takes all

And Fire

Please do not leave me in the ocean of pain and fire
Grave is your angriness, the hell of chain and fire

What I got after crossing limits you established in world
The lust which was of no use, all in vain and fire

The each and every suggestion you have in mind, is crazy
What is real? I'm sure you can not pertain and fire

Do you remember the soft moment when you were my mate in bed?
We wandered and loved whether 'twas thick rain and fire

What is religion you can't perceive, keep in heart, dead spirited
The comprehension is in need of arcane and fire

Smile is fake, after you the heart says "am not happy"
Friends of night after you 're just cocaine and fire

Premium Member People Who Make Meetings Last

I am intolerant of people who make a meeting last two extra hours.
Asking inane questions that pertain to only them.
And of the leaders of the meeting who allow them to take over.
Commandeering the rest of us.
Some think I am rude when I leave at the scheduled time.
Half of the other participants follow me out.

Pidgeon Tattooed With Much Food

a steady pidgeon
for him will provide much food
with white is tattooed

tried to save my skin
to find would go on a spin
found world full of sin

paper does pertain
readers who remain in rain
have become insane

went to news auction
came up with concoction
had used much caution

know an editor
performs as news predator
well known creditor
