Premium Member Computer Shell Game

Digital life discourages thinking,
Laptops encourage time sinking,
Really surfing-the-net,
Is indulging a pet,
For PC’s are pet squirrels chewing nuts who are linking.

Premium Member Dennys Diverse Daughters

delicious delectable divinely dipped donuts
drizzled during denny’s delightful dinner
denny’s dieting daughter Denise deliberately discourages diners
devouring dipped donuts deemed disgusting
digging in delightfully is Denny’s demure daughter Debbie.

Soul To Soul, Back Through Death's Veil

You've not been so dark, as dims
Of you, this appraisal.
For a world, for a time, bad, sad
"A priviledge, home, to call".

Nor so much a soul-crushing
As discourages it
Out of this fondness: " Worth each
Two-way needy embrace.
Whilst as Love's own nurturing place
You and me now merit".

bison-decisive way to kill mosquitoes § fire up those patties § not before eating the reborn fish feast of Yellowstones’s Spring § believing naturally that bison’s dung-scent discourages the buzz § curbs madness of interloper’s adventuring § withstanding the stench not wasted

The turkey- vulture marble

Inside, the insidious vine, hee haw but nay said the gainsayer so soothsayer mop the floors of tearful laments the festoon of frights is Halloween spent and dear precious stones are fitted for first the most precious must endear but one truth and wallop the cavern of delightful awe so sortilege discourages the pointed shaws.

Lace

Brightness peeps into
yellowing net curtains;
brief wafts of a semaphore sky.

An elderly lady has planted her mind
in an apartment,
lightbulbs burn out, are never replaced;
sunshine squints through thin drapes.

Daily she shoos the world away,
discourages rumors
of unnecessary things.
Mail piles up
on her unwelcome mat.

Amidst the Multitude

Alone stand I, amidst the multitude
Though my footsteps are guided
And my mind enlightened
My spirit lives alone
Friends far-gone
Shadows surround thee
Demons embody me
Evils, trouble my life
Spurring internal fright
Of the journey that awaits
Which discourages my attitude-
I hesitate to follow the path, amidst the multitude

Jumping Over Hoops

Reading contest requirements
which make me jump over hoops,
shakes my head until it droops,
discourages me from submitting ,
rather than writing I end up spitting,
it is a game of utter frustration
as my psyche goes through deflation,
and my muse hits a ten-foot tall brick wall,
screaming all the way because of the fall.

Premium Member Wee Ones and Children Know

faeries guard the gate to Nirvana Valley
looking like models from Fashion Row Alley
their magic discourages evil hearts from wanting to stay
Feelings of repulsion compels them to run away

the faeries do not have to do anything except be.
Their goodness and kind souls scour people you see
how do you get them to leave? To vanish? To go?
the wee ones and children do not ask; they know.

Neither a Borrower Nor a Lender Be

NEITHER A BORROWER NOR LENDER BE

Because  lending to friend may lose you that friend:
If he cannot repay and feels indebted, his  burden is double:
How to be independent  is what  he needs to learn ;
And borrowing for myself discourages me to think of the end:
And such sloppy thinking will land me in trouble -
Thinking  there is no need to save or plan or even earn.

A Breathing Life

Heart,
A Pumping blood organ,
That 
Feels pain,
When someone degrading  life,
That
Serving only by him.

Heart 
Always having prosperity,
Thoughts and dreams,
Becomes living,
When 
Blood runs through nerves.

Heart palpitates,
When
Air,
Fills a bladder of lungs.
Breath accelerates heart,
To breathing a life.

Blood, a Traveler,
Delivers happiness and sorrows,
Feels encouragement,
And discourages itself,
When it feels,
Someone had broken him.
