Premium Member Ten Pound Weights
Ten pound weights, of encouragement, uplifting smiles, curl, extend, as fingers unwind, and romanticize. Felicitous lips, the story of joy explored with double dutch jump. Flickers of childhood light, that of a born again saint. Cash into my hands, at Christmas time, as my smile made her smile. I passed on the bills to my child, who needed it more. Pass your smile around the world; the pine lit up with ethereal light. Humans can be rich and kind. ...

Premium Member My 120 pound house guest
He's an elder now so don't dare forget. He has special needs and they need to be met.. Always been a hot boy so keep the thermostat down, or he'll gulp too much water and in urine you'll drown.. Never was a barker but now lets you know. Better pay attention or he'll just let it flow.. The laminated flooring makes...

Premium Member One Pound Fifty
sun tanned unevenly, foxed grimy fingers caress bruising pounded by day's narration churlish in onyx, was its hint over feathered combs, see, of flicked, creased pages buried, stained words were never read while cold rooms grow colder an author's sweat for nothing stemmed the reader's keen though skimmed at best and your dilated pupils captured out-of-breath palates so I travelled second hand yesterday, for just over a quid...

A Pound
Struggles, starving to loss every pound Wishing my pants would start to fall down Weighing myself everyday Hoping a pound has gone away At the gym everyday Exercising, sweating paving the way Once again praying Pounds are not staying Standing on the scale Dreading the weighing Dreams of clothes fitting right Hugging my body tight Cookies, cake, your mouth is watering, your will is weak Your tummy is...

Pound and Power
Pound who wants to Power assume Shall the long search for it resume! From this alone lots to presume, Some of which could make someone fume: Pound might seem a scary costume, If election results rang doom: In the primaries lost to Hume! Loss at the polls appetite blocks And the hugest dismay unlocks... A Nude Pound would ascend Tower, If this on palms...
