In lockup at border camp

Premium Member Quiet At the Boarder Tonight

So imagine
A death ray
That turns
Troops to paste
Or makes the
Atoms in their
Body explode
Hmm dissonance
And quiet at 
The border tonight

Guilty -- As Vladimir Putin

Just like magic
235 days 
are
gone.
One beer
and
suddenly
day 1
begins
anew.
I am 
as
guilty
as
Vladimir
Putin
crossing the 
border.

"calm and Peace"

The glassy waters that lay in peace..
Lined by tree's that border its mirror..
And through the glass they reach for the sky..

Premium Member Taco Tuesdays

A Tuesday with tacos is swell,
But Wednesdays can sometimes be hell;
For south of the border
To remain in order,
You’d best stay away from the Bell!

Ageless

That arts are ageless,
lies a maturity of the artists. 
It also bears a meaningful message, 
whose arts are border less.

Have you seen the words of Stephen King?
Which reap from hell unspeakable things?
Horrors worse than death border your brain
And rob the mind of much needed sane.

I have to border you
and if something is to your
side
the day we will spend together
the night we will gather
somehow a share of
likely cheerness and dreams.

Border

A river carries me through noon,
Bifurcates,
There are two rivers,
One heads north
The other west.
Is one life,
The other death?
I spin a coin,
The last I’ve left.

Jack Ellison

He’s convinced me he’s eighty years old,
and he must be with the stories he’s told,
many border on rude,
but none I’d call crude,
from the man with a heart of pure gold.

Death Valley

One hundred thirty degrees yesterday.
Somewhere on the border between 
Nevada and California...

I wear wet clothes..
I do it on purpose.
Wet and cold.

I have no ac.

Premium Member Joey In Wonderland

A Joey was spotted in wonderland
shaking hands with the invisible man
while "knees" just cackled and snorted
as the border was aborted
the Easter bunny took total command
