A Page For Her
Her lips 
are soft,
fragile
petals 
of a wild
pink 
rose,

Whose kiss 
is so 
delicate,
it compels me 
to compose....

My friends are locked up in their dungeon cells
toiling on tasks the teacher compels.
I'd rather use my time to run and play. 
A Pokemon did my homework today....

Fresh
Heavens above, hold the sky 
Below them lies a life bracket 
In it is a magic crystal of glory 
Men woo and yarn for it always 
It compels emotions and feeling 
Rejuvenates tension and stress 
      Beauty!...

involuntary bliss spasms
caress of divine delight
compels us to go in
forcing us to flinch 
and so we smile and look
as the universe so conspires
to transform each node as light
within our decaying organic form...

The Rose In a Glass of Smoke
Laid is the rose,
Onto a soft smoke
A smoke which compels
Its petals to open
Open, like tuneful 
Screams
Screams which shatters 
The glass, as it sparkles 
Into oblivion
An
 Oblivion of roses,
Forming a shattered heart....

Insecurity
Sometimes you can be insecure
Because it is the cure
Doubt is beautiful and magical
Doubt is mysterious and tragical

Insecurity compels you to search your inner being
It means liberating and freeing
So be sometimes doubtful
So you can be rightful...

Premium Member Despair
demons keep her awake
she has not slept in days
hydrated? I doubt it.

stress keeps her from eating
anxiety compels her silence
the more she needs others,
the less likely she is to ask for help.

Alone in her grief
Sadness and doubt
All she does is sleep...

Premium Member Burning Love
I love with my heart,
as deep from within,
my bowels yearn, 
The desire burns,
the passion compels. 
It radiates in glowing ardor 
in the arena of true heart, 
I walk tall, 
speak less,
listen more,
Feel again, 
This fire in my bones,  
who can quench it?...

Not a Rainbow
here as in flood dress
beat his chain
savage on bare iron

he sang orgies
with prisms deep but
bloodless as a black whisper

his worn epic compels brevity
shadow language rending
repulsive beneath their lather

arcs glow and groan
the ground pulls cheers
a grave on two ends....

Spindle
YOUR QUIET ALLURE
DRAWS ME INTO
YOUR SEA OF SUBJECTIVITY
YOUR BRIGHT SMILE
COMPELS ME
YOUR PASSIONATE EYES
HOLD BACK A FURY
I AM ENTHRALLED
BY YOUR PARADOX
YOU SPIN YOUR THREADS
AND WAIT
I'VE COME TO YOU
YOUR TIMID PREY
I'M LOST
INSIDE YOUR WEB
I'M STRUGGLING
BUT I'M CAUGHT.

Poetry Blues
What is it that compels us to 
forego
what is.
The known.
Fact, 
proven or held true by the 
many.
Excuse ourselves from family 
and friends.
Step into a moving river 
Swim against the tide 
And try 
To alter the current,
Refract the shadow
Refine the flow,
with words 
that really define us....

Inertia: Not An Option

Free will demands choice.
Sometimes, our choices are choices of evil.
Choice compels decision.

Not all choices are created equal.
We have to be responsible, because
We have been called upon to act.

We must therefore pray;
Then  choose;
Then decide;
Then act.

My Quest
Through the darkened hours 
and days darker still, am I drawn
guided onward
relentless
toward that next horizon
that next bend
beyond which lay mystery
that unknown which compels me
helpless and blind
to that which lies ahead

Onward I go
knowing not my quest
knowing nothing of the end
only that I seek it...

Love's Sham
A head's glance 
And a soul's dance 
Compels a heart's trance 

A trance so deep 
Reality goes to sleep 
And fool's golds drip 

Fools fools fools 
O how one falls 
And the other lies 

Then reality reigns 
And sorrow rains 
Now, suffer the pains.
               Trust not love...  Again I say..  Hate love....

Loneliness
The worst feeling of my heart;
Springs up with a sudden fast beat.
Begs a loving arm around shoulders;
Pleads for a walk along dark  boulevards.
Appeals a warm kiss over forehead;
Compels to snuggle under a canopy head.
" How dare you!
Are you senseless?
I command you to hibernate,
'Cos  winter is not over yet."...
