money lines and ropes
Two or too provoking thoughts A safe place i write of and at We both travel throught And in the invisible line I am not found The civil rights protests Doth though forge ahead Inside the building as I? Outside of poverty, all night The watching of blind The picket lines of before Your grocery and your store Am i stored in place as safe? Tolerant to entrance...

Show them the ropes
Show them the ropes They tighten the nuse Then roll up a smoke Decline all the food Smoke up some dope Buy them some booze Nowhere to go But tying their shoes Going for broke Dice that they threw The goal is a joke No smiles from you Gone cold as a coat Or ice on the roof That's totally froze And too high to go...

Ropes
We are together and apart, like hyenas. You demand to be captured - roped to a pulse; we still know how to knot blood. After the questing tenderness arrives quietly. My lips brush the wet vines of your hair....

Roar’n of the lion, silence of the lamb O-o-o-o…O-o-o-o…O-o-o-o* In pit of despair, color robbed from his face, Joseph loosed from his coat, sold as a slave. Roar’n of the lion, silence of the lamb O-o-o-o…O-o-o-o…O-o-o-o Swallowed by the sea, whale amidst the waves. Jonah no longer pouts, he’s in a dark cave. Roar’n of the lion, silence of the lamb O-o-o-o…O-o-o-o…O-o-o-o Bones imminent crush...

My bug out bag would include my grandchildren. It would have to be large, because I have ten. My cat and dog would go in and my wild raccoons. They count on me for their food right? My husband could stay home. I have had him so long we are redundant. We can watch eight hours of TV And laugh at only...

Off the Ropes
I'm not a fighter but, I Didn't come here to play I go the distance like Kim Duk Koo So f***ng walk away You'll have to kill me Before I go down So you better be ready To go another round Proud I came from nothing Proud to be a man My boy Luke said Sometimes nothing Can be a real cool hand...

We are together and apart, like hyenas. You demand to be captured - roped to a pulse but I have forgotten how to knot blood. Love arrives quietly. My lips brush the wet vines of your hair....

I'm a beautiful mess in a dress or some sweats I confess life is hectic right now and I'm stressed Wont forget that I'm blessed but it's hard to remember. When I'm stayin at the shelter With my son and these mice must think they family members It get cold here at night it ain't even December Yea I cry...

Ropes
down on my knees begging please free me from these ropes with no hope as I try to cope holding on to these strings as my life depended as I fence off all optical illusions in my way as I have done so for far too long yet still strong trying to hold...

Ropes
On a wooded path next to the sea Three strong ropes dangled from a tall tree. They were hung there for swinging So guess who was clinging To one for dear life? Yes, 'twas me! Seeing them brought me back to my youth Though I rarely indulged then, in truth. ...

I move, I move, My wheels turn like wild things My hands cry the rims I run in my dreams I jump with style I dance I move, and dance My eyes sing like sopranos My mouth uses color Like a rainbow Behind me I run I run and I run The drip lines in my arm Are parachute ropes I steer them alone To land here I stand I dream, I...

The Poetry Ropes
Don't know what I'm doing. Trembling I learn to express my thoughts and feelings with new exciting words. Innocent yet mindless to poetic etiquette. No disrespect to the masters of it's grace and elegance. Couldn't really tell you a stanza from a blitz. Hoping you'll all guide me just a tiny bit, so I dont look a fool and can find my little niche....

You done me mosaic. The rover has landed on Mars. Will you come tonight ? Circa. I was searching the white ants on the blackboard. They had drawn a map of the moon. I would not cry, for the fallen tree. It had left the legacy of ropes. Satish Verma...
