Thumbing through a stack of books, looking quite contrary—
Jack Be Nimble, Jack Sprat, Little Jack Horner, and Jack and Jill,
Sifting through, trying not to make n...

Komodo's Final Feral Kiss

...In the beginning was the word-
and the word was…

I was a tempest
child a feral cat-
alone wild and
untamed eyes a
jigsaw of shattered chaos.

Lipstick Smudge On A coffee Cup Smouldering Cigarette

...A blank stare into nothingness
Suddenly I looked up as something caught my eye
A very pretty girl saunters in and buys herself a coffee
And perches herself cross-legged upon a cleared table in fro...

The Ashes

there were lesser chirps,
faded rays

it seemed as if the sun rose
wearing dimming shades
and as if the wind had been
blown off course or locked out.

The bold-green leaf trees, hed...

in danger of collapse.There I fired my catapult 
on a group of three children some distance away 
as I hid behind a willow tree 
not far from the passa...

'poetry' Pinged Me

With the goddess of colour in our favour,
WHO KNEW it would cause our strings of heart to defrost in flavour....

Erotic As the Rain Forest

...Exotic? Lee did not think so
He had heard stories, and neurotic was more likely
