Premium Member Cupid, Don'T Be Stupid

His Aim
      A Shame

      Narrow
      Arrows

      Find Hips
      Miss Lips

      Forego
      Crossbow

      Next Year
      Try Spears

Premium Member Something Beautiful

Show me something beautiful;
Silent snow as it lies in deep forest,
Silent stars aglow in midnight sky,
Silent forever the banjo after you die,
Silent strike of life's crossbow.

Premium Member The Merchant Beguile

the merchant beguile
sat not sanded, miracle mile
what went where whence
was their way, around the fence
in American fen
gators and crossbow
sickened accosted
absolutely aware
awed without care
float and flutter
your way through this life
see me clear
back to my wife

Premium Member A Horse-A Horse: My Kingdom For a Horse

A horse!  A horse!  My kingdom for a horse!

Wast penned by The Bard of Avon of course!

Richard's steed Surrey lay dead

Slain by a crossbow 'tis said

Dick pled for another 'til he was hoarse!

Cuspids Gun

If Cupid has an arrow let him put it's down and reach for a gun to slay me like prey let him have an iron fist to put me on a list of those who come to past relevance instead of wings let him have daggers for my deep wounds a crossbow tipped by venom for my deep wounds have no cure let it be poison that consumes my body

This Clerihew's For You


Don't cross swords with A Poet Destroyer,
pretentious jousts really do annoy her
Her weapon of choice: a crossbow or a saber
she'll Cupid your mind, turn your rhymes to confetti paper


Dedicated to Poet Destroyer for being the first one to welcome the Romantic Warrior to the Poetry Soup community. Much love to you.

Premium Member Infraction

Left in the wake of destruction,
this mother is called to action.
I am going to shed light on
an infraction, an infraction.

You knocked a single domino,  
there is nowhere for us to go.
Forcing us out of our borough
with no crossbow, with no crossbow.

Basic instinct pushed to the brink
no fresh water remains to drink.
In your yard before you can blink 
you didn’t think, you didn’t think.

Drowning Horse

A neighing through wind-swirled waves.
Frozen hooves branch,
a neck cranked tight in a crossbow of fear,
a horse being swept away!

No! I miss-saw...
just a chunk of tree in the white running water,
A momentary delusion,
yet alarm took flight,
became a moth gone crazy
on the light of my skin.

Not a drowning horse -
not what I perceived there
in a quick moment of terror.

Yet for an instant,
my mind threw a saddle
over what was never there.
