Cold Rain
Cold Rain


clouds roll overhead;
face of Sky contort in pangs of labour
womb ruptures a deluge.

hmmm...

Hey guys, we need to rethink this.
We're about eight inches short
and I'm not flexible enough to contort
and steal that chunk of Swiss....

When one sees how high he has reached
Donald Trump will NOT be impeached

Could never contort
The maze that this bankrupt has breached!...

Trust
The clear patina of corrosion
A signature required to reveal
The airtight seal, broken
Confused, this happened
Cuddled whispers 
Subconscious denial
Attach responsibility
Surprise 
Contort the truth

Preconceived Mold
was i just doing it 
all for her in order 
to please her 
was i desperately 
trying to contort myself 
into a shape that would fit 
into her preconceived mold
of what should and should not 
be in order to be happy...

A Conflict Within
Low and lonely, but not to succumb
Through warring thoughts a pitfall deep
Ireful, rueful, contort
This speaker’s blunder deemed

Subdued with met solution
Devil’s plot decayed
Ruinous intent aborted 
Blithe courage keenly resumed...

The Stork
I like to visit the wind
That crack between pane and outside
Where wind slithers in to lick my heat
Standing in the wind
As i contort around it
The deepest scars hidden by the lies
But the wind my soothing balm
carries hope but never drops...

Premium Member Equanimity
a surprise is sprung
of the nasty sort
but the beauty is
our heart does not contort

something has changed
a definitive shift
aided by bliss mists
we see consciousness lift

there’s nothing we did
save relinquishing identity
all that is, is grace
to grant heart serenity...

The Storm
Thermite skies burning through the storm
Hapless waves contort their form
Every whisper cottoned with a foaming roar

Shoreline beaten and eroded
Tryst becomes a love affair
Oiled dabs and daubs
Rinsed highlights splattered with death blacks
Mesmerised by storms eye quiet lack...

Stuck
These days my mind confuses me
I imagine everyone has it differently
But to be stuck inside my own head
Is like playing with a mouse that is dead
You can contort it in any possible way
You can give it all of your energy
And it will always dangle, but play along
Though clearly it is far and gone...

My Medicines
off she wrote
as if a doctor's
script to which
i had to translate

making out
certain words
that i needed
to sound out

loud making
my mouth
contort in
snorts

yet when all was
said and done
the note she
wrote was

simply
poetry
for what
else would

mi Musa
write
for
me...

Premium Member We All Wear Masks of Sorts
We all wear masks of sorts...
the politician more comfortable
than most of us – his/hers made 
of latex – easier to contort into
whatever image more advantageous; 
driven by public opinion...or which of the 
puppet makers will pay more; the Democrat 
nose now, sword length
into the heart of Freedom.......

Possession
Nightmare revealed insidious corrosion 
It had confused the subconscious element
Signature manoeuvre to sensor fusion
Align and contort the soul’s dismemberment 
Surprise and attach signalling erosion
Oblivious to seal cracking detachment 
Glory-Mae cuddled in her blanket awoke
Discarded ouiji board did hell’s fire invoke...

Glass
mother, I’ve been twitching in your sky with chains
masturbating to a blood shot stain 
you crawl like I want to
melt to bone and blue 
you float like angels do
when I touch for ecstasy and bleeding truth
if I ever lived
death wouldn’t sound like orgasms and light 

I wish warmth 
wouldn’t scream contort
when I lie in
glass...

Those Ten Words
It began with the corrosion of feelings
And the signature was imperative
To seal the agreement on hand
The confused circumstances
It cuddled the thoughts

The subconscious of the soul remembered
And the attach mind and body
To surprise everyone
Would leave contort faces
The align of the inevitable

Identity
You lie there frail and fractal
A shell battered against the shore
Polished and broken
Calm colors cloak extravagant design
Home to lost crabs
Who outgrow and abandon
Treasure to tourists and salesmen
Who display and forget
You twirl and contort your bold lines to please
One day you may break
Become a weapon
A thousand particles of sand...

Navigator
You my love
Are perfect
You my love
Know how to make me wiggle
Moan, scream into silence
Arch my back and contort
Like I never knew I could
You my love leave me breathless
Speechless, thoughtless
Without capability to comprehend
Anything other than your touch
You my love are a master magician
An understanding lover with navigating hands...

Premium Member Haunted By Reality
Specters of the night, Come in the shadows to creep Across my walls, hovering In empty black air; How they terrorize my nights; Expanding, contracting spooks… Shape shifting ghouls who, Contort as if they appear, In wavy fun house mirrors. I must put a stop, To their vile and twisted dance; I must avoid watching news!

Signature
How do I align my thoughts of contort? 
Seal this confused mind and it’s subconscious.
The corrosion of my heart will no longer allow me to attach to those I love.
Anxiety runs through my veins. 
To you it’s a surprise, to me it’s internal pain. 
I write to keep me sane. 
In that moment it’s just a blur.
The cuddled letters at the end.

My signature....

A Spec On a Screen
i attempt to take a breath as structure slips away,
two lips and a whisper changed a universe today,

patterns contort and minds tilt ajar,
my soul is dumbfounded in sight of this art,


head in the clouds, where home isn't far,
seems ages away, knee deep in the stars,

i know not, the language,
i can not define,
but i know that its coming,
it's growing, it's mine....
