Premium Member The Upper Crust

The upper crust
     folks do not trust
   they bite into the lower

   Beer and pretzels just five bucks
     chew on life much slower

Do Bust To Dust the Crust

Must thrust myself through all the crust,
After I Do bust to dust things full of lust,
Which is necessary and definitely a must.

The Crust of Life

The Crust of Life

Economic class,
Whether upper or lower
Can’t buy forever—

(It’s a free gift for the awakening)

Premium Member She ate the bread

Decades passed in memory's dust.
Too many betrayals between us.
For material things, she always lust.
She ate the bread, left me it's crust.
Let it go, forgive, I know I must but
in my mind I just can't trust.
She ate the bread, left me it's crust.

Premium Member Her Flaky Crust Her Tart Like Ways

Lemon meringue pie makes me salivate from here to Alaska
I love her color, her texture, her sweet, her sugar, her sour.
Her flaky crust, her tart lemon, her well -formed meringue
My mouth is dripping saliva as loudly as a dog’s when I think of her.
Ever so tasty!

Crust What I Kneaded

you just can't resist freshly baked bread 
at yeast I can't - crust me, I've tried!  

it whispers - 'I know you loaf me 
                          you know you knead me 
                             you butter hurry up
                               crumb and get me!'

Premium Member A Crust of Bread

Snowdrops like candy, melting on tongues
   Chilly air dancing, filling our lungs
An eagle overhead, feathers bound tight
   Gray skies of winter, transpose into night

Men struggle and strive in the dark to survive
   Warm summer's memories more dead than alive
A crust of stale bread, an ounce of thin gruel
   Stave off for a moment hunger's specter so cruel

Premium Member Beyond This Cosmic Crust

Microscopic, so to speak
A spec upon a grain
A world adrift in endless space
Until it's star should wane

and then again, will all be dust?
Is escape an impossible dream?
To venture beyond this cosmic crust.
Is forever as close as it seems?

Eternally caught in a silky web
The fabric of space and time
Peering out to systems beyond
But too many steps to climb.

Premium Member Like a Chocolate Crust Raspberry Pie

like a chocolate crust pie
is the flat-topped ridge
of a nearby large mountain

Topping mountain pie
as far as the eye can see . . .
luscious raspberry pink sky

high white coalescing clouds
trim the twilight’s slice of sky . . .
dollops of whipped cream

Snow Crust

simply started with a little smoke then it grew into the daily toke now every weekend lines of coke you’re addicted and it aint no joke so do your dust if you must just because of empty lust around your nose it is a bust two rings of white snow crust make a change put a plan in place if you don’t you’ll fall from grace on the floor flat on your face what a waste such a disgrace

Premium Member Creations Crust

Creation’s Crust


Performing - a chorus line – life dancing
the golden haired seductress saunters past
temptress – pheromonally enhancing –
sweet aura that descends as breezes pass,
the innate scent of instinct’s net is cast.

Mock battles that decide a species fate
feathered prance seeking egos to deflate
survival of the fittest will ensure
that seasons are fulfilled and then abate -
the struggle of creation thus endure.
