Short Clench Poems

i clench both eye lids
awaiting for my first kiss
it was terrible...

trembling clench as one
lunar rays blanket the Sun…
loyalty to none...

A meat cleaver slams;
Needle piercing talons clench
My brain; a migraine!...

Your verdict’s a synch…
Harshly vindictive hands wrench
My transgressions clench...

A cadaver’s revenge, bleeds eyes at every clench,
A forever nightmare, hunting souls everywhere....

My sinful life

Clench

Full of baggage

But there's light

Jaw
Biting
And chewing
Our skull hinges
Some people clench them
Masticating
Mandible
Yawning 
Jaw...

Clench mine and sense it
Never release if unsure 
Feel every moment
Feel every scar and roughness
Until you feel satisfied...

with clinch
of teeth, a clench
of fist, straining to flinch,
the sail inched up, on tug of winch,
a cinch...

Since Mexico cast off the French
Make sure a Corona to clench
And forgo the Merlot
On Cinco de Mayo
But buy beer which can a thirst quench...

Teeth ache from the clench.
Tension.
Restraint.
Busting forth and out, like the splitting of an atom.
No mercy to those around.
Caught in the blast.
BOOM!...

cold sweat forms salty
curled knuckles clench crisp sheets
no warm accompaniment

yet the Almighty speaks
augury tossed bones
angelic choirs soulfull speak...

Listen to poem:

Clenching right fist tight
wrenches your memories fast.
No need for string tied
around a finger knotted,
for left fist clench pops recall.

Against my heart you clench the knife,
Remember the passion we shared, once rife.
You became the sole cause of my strife,
And to think I yearned to be your wife....

the anticipatory

Gut wrench
sweat stench
teeth clench
mind race
feet pace 
white face
hands shake
wide awake
cant take!...

....my mistake its not so bad....

Bone chilled, numb fingers
fight to clench the precipice
in frigid, thin air
against the restless mountains
he releases his burdens.

When I think 
there must be silence
a ticking clock is my enemy
a tv set rushes me to the brink
music makes my teeth clench
some claim to think by music
I do not believe them...

heart braces for impact of bliss pheromones 
rapture spasms cause eyes to clench shut
we celebrate the offered joy vibration
each hue new beauteously renews
as we meld with the sensation...

Read More

eyes clench shut 
bliss spasms manifest
all we do is receive
God does the rest

ours is is a lonely path
because although we share
in truth no one understands
words laying our soul bare...

I’ve perfected the art 
Of withholding a fart  
I tighten my buttocks and clench
But when no one is the vicinity
I let rip with a dreadful stench

Penny Candy Paradise, 1962


My little fingers
tightly clench
six saved pennies,
as I hurry to the drugstore
 aisle filled with
penny candy treasures,

….as far as my
eyes can see.

flying fluttery
 bird nestled on the phone line
 rests in the cold feet 
~
clench on power line
bird nestled on the phone line
winter's frozen birds

cauldroned lakes of steam
wafting up in fevered plumes
labored breath as life exhales
venomed arctic gales
plunder trees on sun starved days
brittle claws of tumbled leaves

 UNSUPPORTED CODE NIGHT MOVES

wrapped in a shroud
pread-eagled man
lies… dreamless
in the unmade 
grave of his bed
beams glare on his
mooning face
as his hands clench
on the nights long
throat

Your hands extended from you wrists.....the clench of them around my arms

in welted need... never anger

has a scent that will never fade 
leaves a beauty mark far more indelible than any tattoo
inked in red upon my blue 

pulse points...
