Baggage Regulations

A vulture boarded
A jumbo jet
Carrying two dead
Marmoset

The stewardess said 
"I'm sorry sir, 
Only one carrion 
Per passenger"

there was a young man named Dennis
who staggered from a pub in Ennis
he thought he boarded a train
but woke up on a plane
and found he was headed to Venice

Premium Member Her Depth of Despair

She returned to savor her childhood dreams
    the flowers by the brook, the trees by the stream

  She found a paved road, a boarded-up cabin
    her depth of despair, no developer imagines

Time Travelers

Time travelers
who drews routes
those who leave the logbook empty
journeys in a misty wheather
we are among the ice mountains
pirates once cut our road off

we boarded descend and ride at every dock


Premium Member Santa and Snoopy

Santa got drunk and pissed all over the snow 
bumble tossed it and yellowed Rudolph's' nose
the elves twitched their ears in dismay
Sam the snowman boarded the sleigh 
Santa slept in snoopys house out in the cold

Premium Member My 2023: Ugh

A house in motion near an ocean ... cautious one to leave. A highland house owned by time affects one ... wakes to a place in whites. A house boarded by healed one ... one's beach house welcomes New Year.

Premium Member For 'the Good of the Party'


     The train’s pulling out of the station now
     Not everyone’s boarded the old cash cow

         The POTUS got left behind
         A sign of radical times ~

     'Wheels of progress' just ground him into chow

Premium Member Santa

Jolly Santa boarded his magic sleigh 
And told his reindeer, “Up, up and away.”
They hauled his round jellied girth
Many times around the earth
Without gifts to bring - supply chain delay.

Me Myself and a Moron

Me Myself and A Moron

Me, myself and a
Moron who we wish were gone
And quartered and drawn.

Trump is allergic to 
being water boarded.
He even still bares the
scars from his bone 
spurs he had to avoid
the draft with.

Premium Member Good-N-Plenty

There's plenty of goodness out there
, but it's been fanged by the puff adder DJS.
Goodness is slowly dying on media vines. 
Behind boarded-up windows and riot fire.
With pistols and rosaries at the ready.
Awaiting the fires of salvation.

Trunk 2- part two

Yellow yield light
Don't blink -- you'll miss it
Faded boarded churches
Faith for sale
Billboard salvation on the side of the road
Red traffic light
Pink clapboard House
Speed down to twenty
Bump over the tracks 
Blind crest ahead
I blinked

Lottery Ticket 1

Long back, a lottery ticket, I bought
Won a small sum which was lucky I thought
I boarded a bus with that cash
Lost five times that win in a flash
To a pickpocket, which left me distraught.

The Expresstrain

With a loud hoot it alerted, with resounding clangs it boomed
The people were informed, that it had arrived
A lot in its stomach it carried,from far away it transported
To the city it  headed,when all at the station boarded
The Express Train was soon gone.

Windows

the windows of her soul
the ones smudged
from people peering in
have clouds passing by them
the windows of her soul
the ones boarded up
when people wander past
have cracks in the glass
the windows of her soul
the ones painted 
in a black that peels
are tightly sealed

After the Touch


7 lines /7syllables
______________


she was touched by a phantom

becoming a phantom too

both boarded coral carriage
 
wheels grate cobble streets in mist

opera seats were waiting
 
then to swirl on dancing floor

she relished escaping hours

Premium Member Go With God

Sent out with a mission;
Embraced with a assignment;

Running through the forest;
Tracking through the valley;

Discovering a boarded cave;
Traversed through a tunnel;

Stumbling upon a hilly place;
Climbing a mountain;

Feeling a lot like a race;
Requiring a ton of grace.

When the Money Runs Out

When the money runs
out.  Silhouettes of
shadows.  Abandoned
buildings with boarded
windows.  Crumbling brick
-facades.  The gray sky
hides the wind.  Every
-thing expands.  The eye
-s see far into the
distance.  No more touch.
Words lose meaning.  Empty
train tracks.  Electronic
music beeps and fades.

Skyline of rowed houses
Rolls past and
So do the greys of labour, 
Conservative and otherwise
Are boarded on the decks of
Oil tankers; hollow
Hulking HMS something
Sleeps in the docks
Of the town once red
Now muddy brown
And sick, 
Labour wise and 
Reading Caledonia.

Premium Member Our Choices


Which direction are we to take?
Which choices are we to make?

We do not have the luxury of indecision
Great decisions assist us in our mission

Good or bad, we have boarded the ship
Waters, troubled or calm, we take ownership

We or others often get harmed and  burned
Then, we apologize, and from them we turn

FRIGHTENING THINGS

i’m in the chapel
       it’s night    the room is empty
                              loud c minor chord!

old mansion
    boarded-up
         chimney smoking

ruined mansion
    boarded-up
        window lit near the top

piano recital
moonlight sonata
mouse!

my roommate 
    weird smile
        unusual eye teeth

Premium Member Zen mode

even though we know we have impulsed this dream
from time to time maverick ego taunts us
we just smile and move on atop God’s moonbeam
so thoughts as wisps of smoke no longer nonplus
that earth life is unreal as we so deem
we dwell in peace, having boarded God’s bliss bus
simply enacting our role here as ordained
from erst fears and cravings of ego unchained

Translator

mi Musa uses
a translator to
express her
words to
me

typing what she
wants to say
rapido makes
for the words
of inspiration

as i write this
she has boarded
an airplane to take
her cake and eat it too
birthday vacation 

so she wrote and
who more poetic than
a true Musa would breathe
inspiring me with her words
"I'm already mounted on the yummy"
