Passion Plagues

Destiny baits rendering fiats.
The extremes turn to falling dreams.
I’ve lost all cause and placed cost.
My heart is dead and blue plagues the nail bed.
Forget the past and die for what must last.

The Perfect Chance

Let your sight be fixed 
on what is in store for you; 
Odd situation in front 
might bring eyesore in your view.

Be aware of your surroundings, 
the enemy's baits are in place; 
Outsmart the devil's tricks
So your perfect chance won't be put in haste.

Premium Member Pin the Tail On the Donkey-Hee Haw

Swirl me, twirl me, spin me ‘round
My eyes are covered, subject not found.
Direct me here, then block me there
Smiles and snickers; won’t give a care.
Hates me, baits me, friend or foe
I stop to listen but never know.
Frizzy, dizzy, can’t find the beast
Removing blind, tail’s pinned on me!

A Chinese Fishing Net

Death hangs
on the poles
at our bank.
A Chinese 
fishing net 
sinks down
with baits
to lure into 
the fate. 
Doom lurks 
between the
darkness and
the blue. 
Joys dry in the
breathless net
at dawn. As
care snoozes,
snare catches.

The Canvassers

When they wanted us 
In the mildest of gaits
They came to us
With what we had not as baits

We settled on bags of rice and salt
Purchasing for our faces insult
For their baits we swllowed
And in their nets we wallowed

When for food we cast into a bin
Our voice or choice
Our all-important being
Worths not more than toys

A Lot Like Love

THOSE SMILES SERVED AS BAITS
AND I WANTED TO SET SOME DATES.
I FELL IN THE OCEAN OF HER CUTENESS,
STRUGGLING THERE WITH MY MUTENESS.
STARING HER FROM DAWN TILL NOON.
I THOUGHT I’LL TALK TO HER SOON.
THERE WERE EXCHANGE OF SOME SMILES,
I FELT LIKE COLLECTING THEM AND PRESERVING IN FILES.
I HAD COURAGE TO TALK,
AND THEN I JUST TOOK A WALK.
THEN ONE DAY FINALLY I REALIZED
IT WAS NOT LOVE,
BUT LOT LIKE LOVE!!!

A Poet and the Universe

Unveil, you poet, shrouded mind,
do not console with baits of youth!
Keep on rethinking all the time 
to get the very gist of truth!

And if the Universe is destined 
sometime to yawn with hellish darkness
and in a flash to turn the planet
an` all the living things to dust.

Will perish poet’s thought or not?
Will bring it him to other worlds?
So that to other shores could float
in finding sense and too good forms.

Live Baits

An autopsy was being conducted
with brutality
to silence the rising dialogue,

pulling out the lethal crunch
of scripted history.
You want the kiss of a parting grain.

A secondhand face crops 
up in a newspaper. Are you ashamed
of curtains ? They have covered

all the skeletons. The tangerines,
why do I remember them
like juicy lips in dark.

We are going to bungle together,
decked up to receive the body
of a honed player.

The Happiest Place

I thought this life is a cruel mess
Sole pain to expect, no more no less
No silver lining from a single cloud
No anchor to hold I was allowed. 

I was certain I will never be found
I'm hidden in guilt and hatred bound
Shattered like ashes in endless spree
Whispering in the wind, touching a tree. 

Then I met you like it was fate
As if the nightmares were all baits
So I can come to you never to depart
The happiest place is to be in your heart.

Fountain of Wisdom

There's a fountain of wisdom,
In a far away land,
Of an unknown kingdom,
Buried deep in sand.

A long journey awaits,
For those who dare,
Filled full of baits,
For people not so bare.

A vast ocean of knowledge lies,
To them who managed to reach,
A lot that makes you dies,
Mind becomes free, ready to breach.

There you'll learn the ultimate lesson,
One that'll make you great,
For it's you that is special, son,
Since your life's no one's to rate.

Surreal Life

On the autumnal dew
The delighted legs of Sun are walking

Through the mild coldness of breeze
The morning grassy leaves are dancing

On the joyful wings of sky birds
My heart of life is struggling

Yellow sighs of time is mending the unreachable horizon
Wave of tsunami is scathing the parched land of newborn 

Solar eclipse is coming to the dungeon of Hades
Emptiness of living vessel is bidding with top baits

The Cherry Pick

Cherries with the wine,
Silky red curves to dine,
Floating with the ice,
Looms my tongue to charms and dice;

She devil in brine,
Wet dips and her wits decline,
Breathless she tosses,  
In the fresh frolic gossips;

Cheered she baits just fine,
Duly caressed remains mine,
Clamors to recant, 
In her to and fro descents;

Between sedation,
Dances edged by temptation,
No accusation,
Accepts flagrant violation;

Bitten ecstasy;
Masticated revelation:

Distraction

So much time has I spent,
Reading to others for enjoyment,
Rather looking up for my present,
To summarize my past that He had lent.

Ridiculous!Ridiculous!Ridiculous!

How I wish to step up my game,
Give it up and raise my plane,
Like those ivories that were made,
Alas! I choose to be late.

Forevermore, I'm still late,
Glued to bobtube, caxtons and be laid,
Now I'm concerned more on these baits,
Please God! Give me a chance to repent.

Kingdom of God In the Sky

K-ingdom of God in the sky
H-as been being prepared; 
E-ternal life is priceless, 
Y-es, it is beyond compare.

B-e brave and be strong, 
U-sing the love of the Father; 
A-s the night is already gone, 
D-arkness soon shall be
O-ver.

V-icious lies must be fought, 
I-n June fourteenth day; 
L-et the devil's tricks and baits
L-ose their ground and fade away.
A-lmighty God's kingdom
R-emains forever in the sky; 
D-o look upon the bright light, 
O-ver the mountain so high.

The Phisherman's Rhyme

I have my job, and you have yours
I earn more though, that's for sure

I cast nets out to the net
phishing baits and mimikatz

I catch you, your family and friends
Lock your files up, and ask for cash

Oh, don't worry my friend
keep doing your job, and I'll do mine

I'll visit you again, some time
and slip in through the click streams
of your peace of mind
