My Hard Drive Don'T Drive Anymore
'Your computer just might be at risk'
'There is not enough room on your disk'
Oh yeah? I retort with distain
There's PLENTY of space in my brain!...

disdain
deep
deep
within my brain
how to
get to
a place
without peril
I look
I look
for shame
I look
distain refrained
poor poor brain...

March cometh upon Ukraine 
Missiles blacken snowmelt plains
Morning birdsong tweets distain
Metamorphosis, cocoons from pain

Eyes that miss nothing Pierce through the inky blackness Aware and wary Wisdom permeates vision Distain colors every glance. Yet, somehow I understand Do we share a common vision? Yes, Amazement at human behavior.

Shame Is Five-Fingered
Slapped with shame 
left a print of distain
the mark is still left
long after it came
like a stain
no matter how hard you try 
to take away the pain
you reilize you lost
more than you gained
slapped with shame
left with a print of distain
the pain thats left
is a dark red stain...

Under Our Rug

Under the rug it goes
So nobody else will know

Under the rug it goes
Safe, beneath trodding toes

Under the rug is safe
For an unspoken mistake

Under the rug there’s pain
And spitted, rotten, distain

Under the rug where secrets travel 
The fibers insure, nothing unravels...

PIETY
When the carrion calls
this is your  destruction
you are drunk with distain

Your body is a yew tree
into which a maiden
dips her momentary fingers

You are  now a  snake
which slithers 
towards the black cave


together your
dreams are stillborn
the  still night interlopes
with your deft piety
disheartened...

Creative Balance
I struggle Endlessly 
Difficult to get the balance right
Between writing fluff 
And making enough
Of what I mean to say
And actually say
Its not to everyone's taste
But it comes from base
Emotions like pain and common distain
Of my daily issue's 
And if any of this should touch a cord
It proves your views are not ignored...

Angry Conifers

Trees in the avenue
have a weird sense
of humor
Long roots cracking up
finely laid cobble stone 
pavement
Slightly bent easterly
give pain in the lower
trunk
The younger trees
bleat about older trees
taking space
Older trees show
distain of needy trees
no dignity
Trees are silent
lack imparting skills
shake leaves

Humanity
Human, is part of the word humane.
Universally, we should all be human.
My worries are; have we become insane.
Animals are to be treated, the best we can.
Nearer to God, we should be without distain.
If you mistreat an animal, that would be inhuman.
Tell me why, we allow so much worldly, human pain.
Yet, we all strive to save animals, with much acumen....

Pride of Place
Garfield sits with hooded eyes of distain 
Claiming the computer shelf as his domain
With a smirk resembling a grimace of pain
From to much commotion he craves mundane 

Gifted to girl who he thinks may be insane
Too much excitement, like a run away train 
Forty years together but he can't complain
When she sleeps, he drinks her champagne

The Dust Devils Dance
Did you see the sun glare down in silent distain 
And the dust devils dance across the plain
When you stood on the highway black ribbon
Did the tar feel sticky as the heat was striven

And at midday on a hot summer’s day 
Did the semis dance in the heat as they drove away
And when a cloud crossed the sun
Its coolness was your reward for all that’s done.

Hollow
Dark hollow words echo 
in my skin for things 
I have done in numerable sins 
counting each a thorn of pain 
dark hollow words distain 
desire my internal fire 
my funeral pyre they cut so slow 
so very deep I feel then seep
down to keep me in turmoil 
Cleansed by my fire slow and complete 
dark hollow words 
echo long 
into my night
longing for something 
to keep me company...

Reason of Existence
Lotion cream balm an ointments 
reminds us of who we really are  
accessories fitment's an garments
never need lavish nor spar
classic cupboards organized 
maintain visual distain
to relax an feel stabilized 
everything is perfectly attain
or maybe not quite a start
funny how time seems to fly 
then wonder how far
th' reason of existence apply
like driving all night 
without an aim...

CONFRONTATION 



My destiny angrily
 I Confronted
Complaining of the many
Obstacles she put 
On my way, 
Of all calamities and pains
She mercilessly upon
Myself inflicted 

She heard my protests   
With distain
Retorting that the blame
Should not be put on her
But rather upon me
For she had ONCE, 
Myself, heard to
Exclaim:
How beautiful life
Really CAN BE!

Underneath
I know I'm the problem 
My fractured thoughts remind me constantly 
My love 
I've got the bullet
But I never wanted the gun

I think I fall in love everyday 
Strangers on the street I'll meet someday
I think I love them all
But I never intend to fall

I know I'm not the problem
His actions show me consistently 
I'm stuck in distain
He handed me the gun
After unloading the bullets at my feet...

Premium Member Solid Harden Bleak Stilled Heart-
Solid harden black stilled heart Blood flowing yet spiritually stuck Tired and exhausted toward the mouth Cold, miserable distain spewing out spinning, twirling like a flag on a pole Dripping, driving like a man on a mission Repented on the fallen on knees Solid harden black stilled heart

The Heart Wants
The heart wants what the heart yearns
It can not just try and unlearn
If it could it would
It breaks and aches so much pain 
As if It was caught in a stormy rain
The devil dances in my heart causes so much distain
I fear It will ripe me inside out causing me to shout
Now if I could find another way to satisfy my heart
That will not break it all apart
This would truly be the magic key
Can you help me

Bringing Back the Pain
Wrapped in rapture, taking in deep panic breathes!
Docile, feeling of euphoria! Take it all in by the pound.
Don’t sleep tonight, it could come for you.
Take you from the depths of despair. No more tears.
Feeling of protection. Feel this, cool, crisp, water.
Taking back the children to the front line. Tread easy.
Tasting bitter, cold, distain. Licking it off the plate.
Wanting more, wanting it all, bring it back for seconds...

Obvious
Monsters mind spinning. Hands steady. Stands ready
Girl by your side, has no idea she just met her demise 
Masquerading as sane. His forced smiles of distain
In just a few moments you’ll feel a stab in your left thigh
Dizziness will overthrow you
Should have never trusted this guy. Should have never taken this ride
I’ll go no further For we know this poor girls fate 
Monsters work along side you at work.Stand in subway lines. So quickly they learn

BLACK WOMAN Many types of distain shades of browns royal Birthing colors of spring the terrain Black-woman Standing free, running on land Staying put embracing torrent rains storms of weather Embedded covering drapes over us like a blanket-sheet Sleeping not, awakening such a baby dreams their love comforts me Falling winter grounds Many types of distain shades of browns royal

Cathy's Cat
Half Alpaca, it spits if I dare kiss Cathy's ruby lips.
It plants a jacked-up rhubarb stalk,
a stiff stalking walk
if I dare roan hands over
my lovers compliance.

Cathy’s cat is much loved by itself
and also by the silky paws of its owner.
I think it may be transforming into a Burmese python
or something more slinky, sneaky, and lower.

As for I, it shows its one scorning pink eye
as it struts away
tail up, exposing a cool distain
as arrogantly possessive as any ‘fork you’ flag....
