Like Moses in the desert, I have wandered. My destination nowhere in my sight. I’m searching for the joy I have been promised But hampered by the seeming lack of light. Like Icarus of old, I am a pris’ner. I’m chained here to the ground by gravity, And haunted by the things I can’t accomplish, The dreams of places I will never...

I Don'T Like the Look of Those Scissors, Darling
But a brush and a touch, one parting more. Delilah, Moon-girl, you stole my strong light. I, your Sun-boy, am shorn having blackout, but remember my close shaves, the honey and dead days, my foes jaw-struck, as the long-winded she-ass brays in my ear. With influence silverish, drowning golden locks, the egg-eating fish-god wins for a period till dawn's yellow meets me at...

Samson
I heard poor old Samson Singing songs for Delilah One fruitful afternoon In a room after gala Her charming beauty Made him loudly squeal Telling secrets so loudly Like his "Achilles heel" Poor old Samson He was played like a stone Like an old flute, he spoke His whole silence was broke For his body was...

Premium Member Samson the Genius He-Dog
The thug’s greedy plan was ill-fated. “Beware of the dog!” the sign stated. Sharp teeth pierced his butt. He screamed, “Get off, mutt!” Desire to steal quickly abated. For Samson, fame was just beginning. This brave dog would set the world spinning with such doughty deeds, supplying the needs of many while great kudos winning. He quickly developed the power to fly. There exists not ONE...

Premium Member Samson
Joyful music filled the village when mother’s barren womb gave birth. Born to end Philistine pillage, and fill sad, anxious hearts with mirth. No wine or product of the vine, should pass your palate when you dine. No razor sharp should shave your head, a Nazarite from womb till dead. God had a special plan for you, to be a ruler strong...

The Song of Samson
Monoah had a wife, who was barren most her life. An angel came and whispered in her ear, you'll have a son and hold him dear. Now the angel said, "No unclean things to eat, don't drink strong wine and Samson your son, should be just fine." Oh! But wait, there's more to share, most of all don't cut his hair. So...

Samson and Delilah
Delilah: Samson! Why do you imprison my love in the dungeon of mistrust? The hypnotism of my succulent breasts, and the soothing soft feel of my moist lips, your stolid heart betrays. You really do have the strength of a God, but even a God is subject to the mind blowing caresses of a goddess. Prove your love to...
