Premium Member Victim of the Dam

I once knew a cat from Siam 
Who was the wife of the cat "Sam I Am" 
 
I found me her daughter
On a raft in the water

But I lost her
When she fell over the dam

Hell Fires and Dam Nation

Santa gave Donald Trump a big sack
That he thought Trump would never unpack
But to Trump's great delight
It was all anthracite
(Donny loves to burn coal 'cause its black)!

Mega Dam

Engine roars wrathy
It digs deeply with high rigs
A deer seers in it

Human primates him
A crowd excavator does
Huge power of pit

Water flows in mad
Forest is gotten rid of
No home for biomass

Premium Member Who Gives a Dam

Russia's done it again
    This time they've blown up a dam
  Flood waters cover the land

  Farmers' livelihoods wiped out
    Stranded Ukrainians shout --
  Help! as the 'civilized world' checks out

Debt Dam

Fools' parody of having's sort,
now obligations drained resort.

Speculations wonder, dreams a'soar
asunder now, plagued debt's encore!

The vision's plunder, to have more
dam's broken . . . underbelly's floor!


Premium Member The Dam

There was once a species really dam

That his brain didn't weigh more than a gram

Wishing his life to enjoy

His planet came to destroy

Thus nature did rule to expel the bum!

Frankly You Dident Give a Dam

Frankly you didn't give a dam
That pretty much summed up
the whole future of the film industry.

People throw their hands  up and say
I do not give a dam  about what children
watch and mold their lives after.

I don't Give a dam when parents 
protested the type of shows that
were placed before the family.

You dont give a dam and you still dont

Premium Member Dust A Dam


  Who would do that?
  Lamps, shades, and floors,
  But nothing more!
  Do the Dam Dusters have a union?
  Or are they hired by the slice?
  Since filling in between is part of their life.
  In fact, the Dam Dusters are well known,
  Around the dams in our home.
  Whatever they do,
  Seems to work.
  No leaks today,
  Not even a squirt!

This Dxxn Dam

My mental barriers crumble
as I sink deeper into this drunken delirium.
Thoughts of her rush in
like water through the cracks of a broken dam.
As the stone wall falls
and I am swept away by the flood,
I am sliced by debris and images of her smile.
I become submerged 
and the sounds of her laugh flow into my ears.
Beat to hell and soaked with sorrow, 
I finally wash ashore.

Dam Change

“Dam Change”
Dam change.
Mother and father love their plain ponytails and Lionel trains.
Then infancy crawls to scrap knees, tea parties. And headphone blast fast tones accompanied, by the arrogances of “me”.
Old Lionel trains sleep and ponytails worn plain train to feed or seek maternity.
Then mother and father love their plain ponytails and Lionel trains.
How I hate change.

The Dam

The dam in summer,

Thick air, hot, Green,

Myst by the falls,

Red wing Black birds sing,

Riding our bikes,

Fishing for pike

Cattails and breeze, 

Innocence, happiness, ease,

The dam in winter,

Dark, cold, gray,

Ice on the river,

Short are the days,

Everything bleak,

Snow at our feet,

Empty branches blow,

Realization, hopelessness, sorrow

Tygart Flood Control Dam

To be standing so tall, broad as you do.
With your strength captured, hidden within dew.
Without respect, you protect many things.
Thou, inexistent, until siren sings,
When born, two men fell into your abyss.
Unrecovered, told now, in reminisce.
Now almost forgotten, you still hold back.
Thou will only be known upon your wrack.

Spires

On the day four beasts fell…
Their tails whipping the sky in smoke
Consumed by their own fire
Such commerce
 Brought down an ancient spire
 
Little did the beasts care
 A mighty success 5 years prior
When just one was saved
 From confusion and mire
 
For as the cock crowed
 In a mourning flame
If they would’ve recognized a sun
They would’ve known when thearthwon

Dam

Spend some time alone in introspection
Weigh yourself against the status quo
Suddenly you’ll realize on reflection
Every body’s going with the flow
To stand alone while others hurry faster
Requires a steady lean against the  rush
And like a rock within a stream of falling
The shelter you provide will be a rill
A place for life to feed and spawn or rest
A haven for the sands of time to fill
Mayhap a seed will tree to hold a nest
