Candle
Strike a match 
that distracts 
but dictates
a reflective gaze.
Eyes, witness 
something profound
as the candle melts
pooling, cooling
until the wick
is no longer sustained.
Its flame flickers
then fades....

Alone In Paris
New lights,
quick tongue,
love in the hall of kings,
the eye warms with wonder
at so many things, 
yet I'm carried still, to home,
and thoughts flee to friends,
travel distracts a troubled mind,
but does not make amends....

Mary Lou
There was a young lady called Mary Lou,
She wore no nickers to make it quicker to poo,
Her parents protestations fell flat and useless their cries,
She'd reply "When eating water melon it sure as hells distracts the flies"....

Distractions
"In the very same way,
that the media distracts
us from what's important, 
by broadcasting trivial mess,
the enemy will attack our
person, in an attempt to 
distract us, from our
PURPOSE."

Amazing Artist
The most original, and a perfect one,
A magnetic force , every moment attracts,  
My ultra favourite since day one,
Nothing be it living or nonliving ever distracts,
Amazing artist GOD, at will adds or subtracts !!

Telepathic Girlfriend
She was alone in Space

Listening to music

In between worlds

Pining for the Space Keeper
And his clones, too

She distracts me

I’m not ready for Mars

Robbing a 7/11 to get this out of my head

I’ll be in jail

You’ll be on a rocket

Telepathy lives on...

Premium Member Summer Recipes For Disaster Planning
Caffeine distracts lethargy of wine
as wine attracts simplicity
refining caffeine's dark dualistic depths.

Some substitute weed for wine.

Others mix these all together,
serve over sturdy blocks of ice
refusing to unmelt choices
and hope for Time's most generous best.

Serving more than one....

Comodo Internet Security Pro Ticks
Few byte here a trigger there,
The virus jumps each wall-snare,
Downloads junky virus-ware,
Cuts up those I really care.

Remote 'Comodo' connects,
Without fanfare or distracts,
Silently killer retracts;
Security pro attracts.   

Never defaults online picks,
Peace of mind in its light clicks....

Why
can I
not
focus?
Everything
distracts
me,
it seems.
Playing all
options out in
my mind, stuck
between
two
extremes.
If only
I could
just
close my
eyes…

High fives.
Jive talkin'.
I get off at five.

Five is dark these days,
thriving is scarcer and
scarcer.

Deprivation has lots of syllables.
So many that it distracts from contemptible
WAIT!  That sounds judgmental.

I don't want to sound that way.

So I will make my way.
Hope somebody's god grants me
patience!...

Why aught this
I hold all my truths to be a nuisance.
 I hold all my shortcomings to be a riddle.  
Through smoke and fog of plenty I am blinded to that which I should fear but in pride I do not. 
Comfort is a great hubris. 
 What distracts that which we deam pleasurable?
 What cause can awake us.
 Does it always have to be horrible?...

Darkness Held At Bay
First rays splash lines of love 
across naked bits of detour

dawn's door distracts 
chills of the night dissipate 
and I am free

Free of fight
held hostage ever tight

First rays flash and I see : 

yellow bits of honey dripped
scarlet tanager at play
horizons filling out the day


Darkness held at bay__...

The View From Down Here
two pieces of copper dont add 
  up to much but a skinny child.

  bricks and bones resonate against 
  poverty.

 now drunk impoverished prodigies
 chase the devil who wears new balance
 running shoes so he can flee 
 faster and faster.
 
 seratonin serenade with a little 
 wool over the eyes.  distracts a
 few and keeps them guessing....

Premium Member Why I Occupy
There is a head game
that none of us wants but
it's there anyway.

There is a head game
that interferes with what we are trying
(in all of our fumbling ineptitude) to say.

There is a head game
that distracts us from quality of life
to
the quantity of stuff for which we must pay.

There is a heart game
that giggles and grins and cares....

I wanna go that way....

Theo-Oligarchic Happenings In Slovenia
URAN'S WILLY

Taking sides in discussions holily
About whether Uran used his willy
Means you're trapped in their game -
Either side is the same:
Cock distracts, cash departs, crowd stays silly.

What Goes On In the Car
Crushingly tired driving down the freeway,
other cars take the fast lane past me,
light blinds me through my dirty windshield
and the wireless distracts me from the road.
Dragging my wonder to an angry hour ago...

A sedan nearly sends me off the side and 
needlessly I slam on my brakes before he weaves.
Shock subsides and security builds
in knowing my needs were watched while
I was not wincing through my dirty windshield....

Still He sits In deep thought Reflecting on His last eighty years Nothing distracts his thoughts Of disappointments and joys A smile then appears on his face As he remembers his deceased wife Still smiling he lifts both his feet and rocks .

Roses Before Breakfast
Interrupted slumber aided by shadows in her mind
night sweats and horrors haunting away
times heavily dragged in fast rewind
of pirouettes amongst poppies 
red rouge cheeks and eyes
mourning memories and cries

Life tumbles slowly as day breaks apart
tired bones creaking with the old oak floors
coffee cups call her to wake
but the blue bird distracts
in a simple melody of peace
and in a moment of calm
she bends and smells the roses...

Let me introduce
David Dennison - wealthy,
dirty-minded man.

Credit card in hand
and his pornographic plans,
for sex on demand.

Little girls attract
him - his daughter's body
teases and distracts him.

Of course Jeff Epstein 
knew the way of it - the pay
& get away with it.

David’s lawyers
smoothed the way - and he’s the
President today.

*David Dennison is Donald Trump's alias in non-disclosure agreements with prostitutes*...

Premium Member Practicing His Craft
Listen to poem:
An herbaceous arbor
flanks the harbor
where he labors
fitting words to spaces -- 
blanks he fills, erases.

He savors bits of meaning, 
sculpting sound to logic's shape, 
annealing word and image, 
polishing a verbal mound
congealing on his pad. 

A bird chirps.
Song distracts. 
A moment's lapse.

He compares the bird's 
with his own work,
considers form and content, 
sees the gaps,
tosses his dead page 
into the water's murk....

Premium Member Awakening
Seeker you know
Your hidden treasure,
A certain flow
Shows full measure.


A kingdom waits
In hidden sight,
A tempting bait
Distracts true light.


Rise to the dawn
Where joy thrills fate,
Step on life's lawn
Ere you're too late.


An open gate
Awaits your will,
Cast your own fate
As new light thrills.


So awake now
Aware of choice,
Your soul knows how
Grace anchors voice.
