stop
like my heart,
red and cornered.
a flashing soul faces you
eager to make the turn
onto a one-way street,
called time....

Horse Play
Cornered in a vulnerable position;
kicked and pummeled into submission.
That mad horse had its way,
I lay dazed on the hay,
but am found in a stable condition....

Excited happy coyote yips! Howling.
Yips come faster now.
They have something cornered.
Rabbit? Turkey? Chicken? Cat?
A yipping frenzy.
Dinner begins shrieking...

Pinned in place immobile
Fear grips you like never before
You cannot breathe, terror implodes within
Stuck in nasty devil’s clutches,
Cornered, eaten alive
A painful death

But recently I've been cornered
Now I avoid rash actions to avoid being a target...

Crimson Flow
Beneath celestial skies
In wonderment walks I
Through wheels of confusion
Cornered I become
Serrated edge becomes my friend
Inducing my inner thoughts
I know it's the Crimson Flow
That takes I to be naught.

brushes gently against lightning encrypted in a cornea battered
dangles iridescent prisms of hope condensed on retinal shadows
and works its kind dreams into the eye of the grateful beholder...

The Bandit
Yes I am
The Bandit
Cornered the market in Cool
And yes
Stolen the best seat in the house
Now would you be a pet and fetch me a saucer of milk?
