Premium Member The Mind Is Trying

The mind is trying
On different disguises
Hoping for relief

I am going back to bed
To force myself into 
Some healthier sleep

Jack-Lantern Boys

I thought I could hear, that deviant sound
of eerie boots, disobedient ground
Wearing disguises
Sharing surprises
Jack-Lantern, miscreant, boys are around
Form: Limerick

Circus

CIRCUS 


Exiled from native homes
Slave creatures imprisoned, 
Forced to do tricks,
Tightrope lions, clapping seals.
Elixir of grotesque clown disguises  
Drab animal lives.

Trump a Revolting Development

Trump A Revolting Development

Trump is revolting development who plagiarizes,
And everything that he tries to do disguises;
About parade size,
Told many lies;
Have heard that his dry hair has psoriasis.

Who Is To Know?

Who is to know?

What is real?

Are you it?

Do you know?

Do you care?

Does it matter?

Will it infect?

Love?

Peace?

Truth?

Lies?

Disguises, disguises, and surmises are no surprises

For the wisest.

Get Thee Behind Me Satan

~~Get Thee Behind Me Satan~~ Temptation comes in all sorts of guises Through eyes and touch there's no disguises But the worst thing about being tempted into sin Is when we look or touch And then still fall in....

Fair Lady

Fair Lady


Brown, hazel, green eyes and blue. God made the descendants
of Europe beautiful too.

Brunettes and blonds,
Reds, highlights - various disguises.
Displaying God’s beauty
in various shapes and sizes.

God made us all beautiful in his sight.

Premium Member Becoming Yourself

Who are you really, when no one is watching?
What makes you think and act like you do?
When will you stop pretending and drop your disguises?
Where will you find your identity true?
Why not embrace the uniqueness of you?

Premium Member Metropolitan

Times Square
Intersects the television screen.
At the crescendo of the scene
A starlet sings a melancholy song,
Hiding in a costume that disguises
The method she employs
To hypnotize the audience.

Premium Member Two Birds

Clouds obscure the morning's bright sun
the heat already rises
A Sparrow lands upon the porch
His questions disguises

He was following a Redbird
Distressed at his pursuit
She noisily chattered just leave
You're different you brute

A Heart of Daisies

Your smile amazes
Your eyes blazes
A heart of daisies
I’m left singing your praises

My mind phases 
Lost in your mazes 
Subconscious gazes 
I can’t help at your poses

Hearts wear disguises
Thorns amongst roses
Hide from love’s red lasers
I now rest pushing them daisies

Premium Member Peccadilloes

At the edges of everyone’s being Are those perfect little surprises, Lying in wait to be discovered By unsuspecting enterprises. Perfectly delightful peccadilloes Sometimes wearing odd disguises Small things that make our day Shared with us like token prizes.

Premium Member Too Many Too Late

Opportunities come in varying disguises 
Chances missed always causes disgusts
Nevertheless, time always is evolving.
The wheel can't be reinvented  but requires
 improving
Too Many Too Late. Time and chance has passed.
The next generation will seize the moment that is paused.

Love meets us where we are

and sees through

 Our disguises

Our guises

Our performances

Our nuances

Our expectations

Our innovations

Our convictions

Our contradictions

Our excellencies

Our inconsistencies

Love greets us where we are

Sees right through us

and does not run away

Reflections

the love you see 
in other people 
is but a reflection 
of the love 
inside of you 
the whole world 
is our reflection
if you could see
just how beautiful
and precious each
of us are behind
our many disguises
we are wondrously
made and conceived
but some of us never
bother to even look
so i see it for you

Know Thought

Selfish and granted I'm givin' to what's taken.
Terribly pleasant sadness disguises; forgives and is forsaken.
I just want my love to hide under the covers tonight.
I only wanted suffering.
I only wanted a trap to want a victim.
God and mother left me wondering if I ever wanted another one to break my sickness.
Devil stand brother.

The Hex

My heart is heavy 
For I wonder what’s next
In this world so steady
When you don’t feel the hex

Is it just a game again
I hear you say
And I have lost many friends
Don’t be lost just stay

The hex materialises
And cover won’t help
For it comes in many disguises
So away from you it you should melt.

Battles We Fight

Disguises we wear 
come off at night
as we grip our pillows tight 

Many times pondering 
upon our insignificant and trite lives....

Come morning blinded by 
the dawn's early light
we are reminded in spite 
of the many rays that shine
that we can fake many things
but we can't  hide the truths
in ourselves we so desperately try to deny...

Disgust

We've seen unknown faces of friends,
Find it hard to trust innocence...


Try not to think of where we've been,
Though we can't escape our skin...


Disgust wearing disguises...


We all got puke up to our knees
Soon though hunger will settle in


Cuts that can wait on bleeding

Blood stream
Main stream
Blood clot binge

Love Philosophizes

Love philosophizes:
I will eulogize obstruction
I will displace your obstruction
You and I are one. Frugally: - “Who can be this one” Squealing! - “The free seller”. The seller is fled and I know his place, disguises and winks, there in the lane’s backside birds bid streams for dryness.
Love me with no pocket
Though I muse on those pockets you own.

Somewhere In the World

Hide away, my child
Hidden dangers lurk beneath
Innocence prevail

Hatred manifests
Alarmingly disguises
As contorted love

Lost society
Pressured into submission
Subterfuge action

Gains foothold, at last
With enlightened applauses
New generation

Into the soul's well
Restitution shines beacon
Forgiveness takes time

Venus In Love

Venus in love
alluring and enduring
brightest light in sky
has eyes only for Adonis
who is the handsome
hunter of the woods,
she disguises as Diana,
goddess of the hunt,
helping Adonis with
his enjoyment of stalking
and killing animals
until the love of her life
dies by the wrath of a boar,
ending to a twisted tale
of manipulated lust.

Premium Member What Are the Colors

What are the colors of Love
Its shapes and various sizes?
My God! To even venture a guess
I would need to know
all Love’s secrets
and voluminous disguises--

And yet, my love,
in the course of the day
in a year
or a lifetime or two,

if forced to part
somewhere along 
the unfortunate way

I know, my heart
missing you, could never 
make do….
