Premium MemberTo Fell Fear Quell Anxiety

In the crowd the anxious feeling was contagious.
There was a general feeling of disquiet.
A foreboding loomed, that something pending, might happen.
Cornered eyes darted around fleeting expectant.
Then, someone yelled: "Fire!", "Fire!"
The crowd panicked, instant stampede for exits, disaster!
Did anyone look for smoke?
Did anyone smell any smoke in the air?
Did anyone see a flame?
Did anyone hear a

An Anxious Waiting Devil In Hell

The chiming bell
Is about to tell
Those who tragically fell
And couldn’t their inner riot quell;
Right now withdrawn into their shell,
That all shall with them be well
And their hearts again with pride swell
After power-packed prayers in their home cell
And, thus, none to their soul naively sell,
Too an anxious waiting devil in hell

Premium MemberPlease Mr Shakespeare

What would William Shakespeare have to say of Trump's actions in this tragedy
play? Would he liken Trump to King Lear, consumed by vanity, loyalty and fear?  Is Trump yet another Sir John Falstaff, a great buffoon, good for a laugh? "Double, Double toil and trouble", will the unseating of Trump leave this nation in

You Cannot Quell Our Spirit

From rooftops, you may yell or shrill
Finding faults and accusing us, still
Our spirit you can never kill

You may shout at us or scream
Defeat and despair our lot may seem
But you cannot destroy our dreams.

You may scheme against us or plot
Bring forth sorrow and curse our lot
But all your efforts will come to naught.

You may attack

Quell

One taste, and I'm in purgatory
Neither here nor there, not in Heaven nor Hell,
A cliched, overused allegory,
A taste of poison to make me be well

One taste, and all my thoughts are dead
Resting, peaceful, buried deeply,
Forbidden words are safe unsaid
Foriegn incites cannot breach me

One taste, and the world's soft-edged and sweet,
The sky falls close to bury

Fears I Can'T Quell

I lied when I said it was easy,
There are so many things that I fear;
Just thinking of them makes me queasy,
I’m waiting for them to appear;

Could it be we’re temporary,
Is our love enough to last;
Will he think I’m ordinary,
When so much time has passed;

The day that he betrays me,
The day he says goodbye;
All of the
