a blood fight in the chamber

till one runs aground.

Hold me.
My heart's adrift.
Now hard aground, torn sails. 
Can we just once sail WITH the tide?
Again?...

Battle myself
Where's wisdom then wealth?
God really care?
Just have a stare
Great detriment to my health!...

A Fall Tanka
Crisp air thin and dry
Snuggles under covers sweet
Giggles and tickles
Fall into love once more dear
Sprinkle love like leaves aground...

Two mighty boats beached
End of voyage reached
Captains’ judgement call
Rust consumes them all
Run aground and caught
Well-laid plans for naught

Magnolia Leaf
Autumn, squirrels around,
aground hunting,
storing, I presume.

Chill clouds, and just there,
a green magnolia leaf,
fallen before its time.

How silent lies a lone ghost ship
that lists, tethered to its mooring 
having run aground inside a
dying dream, now distant.

Jealous Ship
Ahoy! A seafarer's tale
About a massive ship, not a whale,
   She was always sound
   Never ran aground
Jealous of that whale, she had screws, not tail

Grounded Ship

The ship had run aground
While the crew was horsing around.
No one could see,
How this could be,
Since the Captain was nowhere around....

Ships aground all around rolling, roiling waters of midnight’s sudden surprise storm. Willful winds usurp and fling sea vessels hither and yon uncaring ruthless rush.

Premium Member Do Not Leave Me
I watch the sea
As it runs aground.

Do not leave me
In my shadow,
I don't want to be alone.
Love me until the bones
Beneath my skin dissolve 
And return to dust.

I watch the sea 
As it shipwrecks me....

Point Bonita Lighthouse
Near San Francisco’s Golden Gate
First to have foghorn that was great
Army siege gun first in the state
Gold rush years many boats aground 
With light and gun no loss of freight
New lighthouse time wonderful date...

Old boulder
I've been yearning
to know the winds routine
I've learnt your skyward motion
put away your chemise
unburden your soul
soon you will be sailing
running aground
is there disarray
to cut away this old boulder ?

Life Running Aground
A Pale blue glass pane
Stands before thy soul
Limbs connected with chain
Contained in this hell hole
Life’s constraints all around
A life running aground

Sanctuary Necessary
Camouflage afoot
hooves trembling
don't stay put
run aground disassembling
hurry shroud apparel
fortress in view
departure from the barrel
exemption you blew
woe
go

A Wistful Melody
Autumn sings such a wistful melody
Its voice drifts softly upon the wind
a song that soothes my sullen soul 
as withered leaves tumble aground
weeping without rendering a sound

The Cane Mutiny

He had but one leg and one eye
and a ship run aground sitting dry
but his cane - still attached
and his limp - unabashed
caused the ladies to mumble – “OH MY”.
