A Life Unrolled Upon an Empty Screen
I have played the coward and the brave, both the strong and the weak. A man must be a man, and forget nothing, keeping close to him those times of disgrace and honor, drink both the gall and the nectar of a far too tell-tale life. I review, and examine myself without any escape-hatch excuses. Clap my hands together loudly praising this searchlight mind, that is...

Mantis on the Screen Door
O Praying Matis, what prayers do you post through this wire netting? Are you basking in the sun or are you on the run and hiding from the woodpecker and the kingfisher who snack upon green bugs just like you? Poor prayerful mantis, so under appreciated by those who would feather their nests with your holy carcass. Keep praying - for stronger mandibles, yet larger claws, for crunching and devouring really are your...

Silver Screen
A stage star light across your face, Hides the gloom You carry the weight of the room The embrace of midnight, Ignites a fire The world is warmed by your desire Blown in the wind lies the stories you told, From the London streets, To halls of gold The silence pastures in your memories, You have always got a friend in me Did you know you’re...

Romancing the Silver Screen
Romancing the silver screen Setting a million hearts ablaze Through amorous dreams Of actors lost in Love, desire and longing A make-believe that entertains Takes us on flights of fantasy With a clap of the clapperboard A professional obligation begins That ends with wrapping up the scene. ...

Split Screen
When the TV screen is split, your eyes Bounce back and forth and back So you’ll never miss a player Executing his attack. Since the tennis crowds go crazy When the match is near the end, Viewers like to see the pros And if their leads they can defend. On one side we watch the women And the other side, the men, As they serve...

Premium Member Money Does Not Bring
Money does not bring true happiness, This does not exist. Money releases and smoothes The daily burdens and responsibilities; It is a relief that diminishes the worries. Being healthy is the ultimate state of happiness; Being wealthy is the hollow state of happiness. The concerns of securities show-up on the screen, Attack the consciousness, and destroy the spleen. The fear of death makes...

Six Faces on the Screen
We are six faces on the screen. For over forty years, We've shared our children's lives, Including many hopes and fears. A class for brand-new mothers Introduced us at the "Y," Though several in our group dropped out As time went marching by. Our kids grew up, but once a month We met to have a meal. The chance to keep in contact Had a very...

Split Screen
Two people are on the screen which one is your dream? Two dresses are hanging on the door which one did you picked up on the shore; two cabs are waiting at the gate which one is your date? This place is infested with two of everything and it is hard for me to sing. Every...

Premium Member Doppelganger
Empty as a Halloween pumpkin Flat as a punctured tire I note myself on the screen In a t-shirt with Messiah I almost said howdy mate But next second I realized He doesn’t care of my fate Though he won’t be at all surprised To meet his doppelganger He’d probably buy me a drink He’d look from a different angle On every subject I...
