Premium MemberUnfocused

Is it just me or A.D.D.
Can’t stay on top of things

When the sermon gets long
I mentally write a poem

I must fight to stay focused
Least the devil do hocus pocus

Hocus Pocus

I found a book of ancient spells
It’s hard to read and it smells
I found it at a German bookstore
“My current meal is such a bore,
so this spell I scream and shout
give me a heaping wad of sauerkraut”

not attention on prison 
Someone attentive to durk
like a woodsmen shirt 
what a jerk
I got same play anyway 
got the same old score 
and I do the same old thing 
you know me well
you sure as hell pick up on dirt
and you sure as hell know durk

Eerily eager evil enigma elevated eleven renaming egg land.

Meager minis liked their initial idea eggplant ready.

Beefily blatantly weird in a diddly extra wiggly way.

I was ready, reved, relieved and willing my elevated eight.

black anklet twelve will enter evil eggland

Bidding your time for what kind of love
What a nice life what a nice night with a picture in a camera
Time unravels without you
Now serving, who without what
Be it something I could have ran with
The words roll out faster than the carpet
What is significance what is lost forever 
In a moment of a dream
Fear slows

Hocus-Pocus
Haiku: by Tom

Is passing the buck
the twin of hocus-pocus
or coincidence.

Hocus Pocus, Balderdash,
Newspapers print horror and trash.
Oligarchs hungry for extra cash,
To add to their enormous stash.

Nervous police officers feel the heat,
When they caution terrorists in the street,
They no longer walk the beat,
They have cars with safety seats.

Police cars drive around at night,
Warning louts that curse and fight,
Often these thugs take flight
Making the cops chase them

Summer taunts us verily with
now thinking back to it last year-
and praying then, we'd now be free.
But no- we still must live in fear.

Lost months' nonsense only paved
the hilly trail of ups and downs.
Told vax will work- yet, breakthroughs creep;
uncertainties leave us with frowns.

Covers deemed- erasing faces, good; 
the vaxxed, unvaxxed, it matters not.
Our choice

Premium MemberDisney Movie Hocus Pocus

Their eyes flashing, their laughs each their own 
Three witch sisters, blonde, redhead and brunette.
They speak of devouring children, spells aptly sewn.
We recognize them from other movies, and the internet.

They try to act beastly, scary and ridiculously bad.
But their well-known personalities seep through to us.
So instead of being horrified or scared or going mad,
We begin

Hocus Pocus

centuries living and walking amongst creatures
reminded to accept our different eclectic features
seeking prophetic teachers
where are the righteous preachers
overwhelmed, we are by distractions
unable to comprehend the universal laws of attraction
they have been ignored
nature's officially in war
fish and turtles flopping dead on beach shores
natural disaster's increasing
animal species decreasing
birds falling out of the sky
anyone questioning why
pondering could things

Hocus Pocus

Looking back the mind can focus
 on the mix and match hocus pocus
 but the heart alone can see 
 the future you and me.

Premium Member- Abracadabra Hocus-Pocus -

Sometimes I order hobby items from China
I love scrapbooking supplies
The package was in the mailbox today
could not remember I had something on my order list
Maybe something I had forgotten
At first I was just surprised by what I saw
A small bag of seeds and a sample image
of a plant with real diamonds ... no flowering
yes, you

Woozy the witch fuelled up her chrome studded besom 

Which was parked in the garage at the Cromlech at noon

She polished dusted and oiled the vintage broom’s motor

And applied magic spittle to fix butterfly wings and a rotor


Filled the hydraulic suspension with liquefied fairy dust

Serviced the turbocharged engine to ensure its robust

To weather belligerent storms

Hocus Pocus

Poets are like magicians.
They trick the heart into feeling, 
“things” they had no idea, were there at all. 

Sadly poets don’t always know how their tricks work. 
They sit and think, and study, and hope and even pray. 
They are prone to mistakes and misinterpretations. 

Yet…

Poets, dare to dream in colors,
of blue, and yellow,
