Word Bank Use Seven Words - 6-2-25 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Serpentine Stars A “cascade” of crystal moonbeams Touches summer tides of “serpentine” seas Where “phosphorus” waits To splash On the still shoulders of shorelines In a “myriad” of luminescent sequins Bathing the sand in sparkle Like new stars Tumbling From the amber-mauve wombs of “nebula” To the “lilt” of the “lunar” nightingale’...

Flesh That Refuses Form
no sound in a cascade of nerves submerged amid a myriad of silences a serpentine fold slices through the viscera and a breath of phosphor burns in the chest’s hollow a crawling rhythm of an aborted name shapeless a lunar longing locks into the bones among the remnants of a collapsed nebula I do not heal I do not return I am flesh that refuses form...

Nebula of Lies
You had me for a year, I believed it all was true. Every moment, every action, how could it not be? Like a serpentine snake, you slithered inside my mind, my body, squeezing out all my trust, all I believed in you. You made me lower my guards. I believed. I wished I didn’t. You showered me with love, a cascade, a toxic waterfall, drowning me in a...

My mind hibernates in the void of cavernous complexity, wakes up in the sensual seasons of mystique living. The wild psyche forms a sleek and sly unique entity, as with whisper of intent hiss, dances the reptilian feeling. Within the deep cold layers many ancient secrets hide, the sinuous slither of the silent senses can’t find. Coiled in still shadows...

Premium Member Sharp As a Marble
With a mind sharp as a marble Words roll off my tongue as garble. My clean shaved head is like a globe Serpentine tattooed, lobe to lobe With yellow, brown and strings of blue Of understated pastel hues Waxed smoother than a scratched eight-ball Like a brain coral, all in all. What is outside is not within Sharp as a marble crown to chin. Sponsor:...

St Valentine Celebration
Paint never would smile at Turpentine And I tell you The Serpentine Wouldn’t at The Truest Valentine “Hither I Come!” from Far- Off Turpentine In Paint’s eardrums, A Monstrous Frankenstein And-trust me- to The Serpentine The love avowals of The Dove-Like Valentine.

Accumulating Anger: My Love Was Serpentine
My love was serpentine to the touch I can't quite explain it...the love of mine Had gone away from my sight and such I can quiz my mind to say otherwise, my bittersweet sugar wine… Why am I extremely drunk off of utter fear? I should have been intoxicated with cheer You bruised me with your torn-up tribulations of threats...

The Road of My Life Is Serpentine
The road of my life is serpentine, Wavy and with High-Five traffic jams. Bewildering to me, but not to God, Someday He will pull it straight, Like that Christmas ribbon that curls. All I can do now is talk to Him, And wait until the ribbon unfurls....
