No Empathy, With Sympathy

Out of the rubble,
And through trouble.
My hopes, doubles.
Weaving together,
This fair weather.
Evil dare tether.
In mental telepathy,
Feel no empathy,
With sympathy.

Premium Member Structured Earthen Brothers-

Mining, panning gold treasures
Jewel covers rocks pleasures
Fossils of dormant brown doubles
Captivate earthen brothers

Premium Member Double Up

My seven hours feels like ten
When the boss walks up and says "When....
You get a minute, would you...
And then when you're done... could you?"
So my work load doubles up then.

Tiny aerialist weaves its own net; shiny silvery web. Arachned bobbing about its web in sunlight; quite a picture. How clever she is; it doubles as her kitchen!

                      captures sunlit Sakura

Workwoman's Comp

Some doc sold a dancer named Bubbles
A new set of fourty-four doubles
Men whistled and lusted
She slipped and they busted
But got Workman's Comp for her troubles

(Based on a true story)

O

your only half as old as you are smart
by counting my blessings every day my hindsight doubles
all work and no play makes jack a dull boy

you wouldn't believe the irony....seriously

Premium Member Duality

A toss of the dice and magic begins. Parallel worlds, doubles, snake eyes; we’ve all got a twin somewhere. Everything is duality; a second chance.

Home Truths

I
Here it is vetkoek
Mince, homemade roll, Rooibos -
She doubles as nurse - blessed home

*Rooibos is sold in USA, but is an export of South Africa. Great health tonic, tea ... No caffeine

Oh No Not Again

Again I’ve lost my spectacles,
The ones I need- to see.
I’ve felt my head and more than once,
Conclude they not on me.

They are the worst; to try and find
Seeking can cause troubles…
How to find a single pair-
When all you see is doubles?

Pain and Misery

pain
doubles her over
sweating
on the ER stretcher
bright lights and too much
noise
intensifies
misery
weeks of pain
like toothpicks
lost inside
patiently
the nurse pushes pain medication
into the IV
she cannot make out the words
for all the flurry

Premium Member In My Caravan

In my caravan,
oh in my caravan,
there is only you and me

Our mirrors do doubles,
so there you are
with two whiskeys

Our mirror images frown
at our drinking
and saying "cheers"

In my caravan
we both are tipsy
at each other's image

Morning Blues

Swallow the amber bubbles
To chase away my troubles
In alcohol fuelled dreams
But tomorrow, I see it doubles!

Thunder temples
Lightning eyes
Sweaty body
Ouch, I cries!

Face as green as clover
As my body I turn over
This poor little beer rover
With his blissful hangover!
Form: Rhyme

Smile

Silver, gold
I'm not interested
Everything told
In you my love is vested

Puzzles, troubles
Each step I take 
The pain doubles
Smiling, fake

Smiling at my fear
It smiles back
Intoxicating leer
Hope, I lack

I love you
So I'll carry on
You love me too
Soon you'll be gone

Premium Member Double Up

I mean that fourteen different ways
The heat of summer
makes me sway

Sami Davis
Boy could he play
That was yesterday

Arthur have you heard?
Jean's now that's absurd
History always doubles up

Sami are you ok?
Cause I will delight if I may
Should a doctor smile and say

Twins!!

Premium Member Gracing Whirlwinds

You've got to put down your storm
before you can lay grace to mine.

Two hurricanes colliding
do not negate each other.
It doubles their strength and size...
A flesh-ripping category five-plus.
Almost nothing will be left behind
but a pair of ruby slippers
and splintered hearts on the pyre.

Premium Member Tornado Alley

A violent vortex of velocity

A vacuum of voracious vices

Such feral ferocious ferocity

Driven by devilish devices


Troubles double when it doubles its haste

Caught up in currents of circumstance

Rumbling rabble through the rubble and waste

Dancing its devil's dark dervish dance

Faith

I stand, then fall.
But still walk tall.
I limp when hurt,
But still have a smirk.

When taken down I stand,
Courage is my brand.
In times of darkeness,
Faith gives it's brightness.

When wounded I bleed,
But my rise does not impead.
When overwhelmed by troubles,
I smile and my faith doubles.

tangled leashes
a texting dog walker
                              .....three dogs squatting


loves aces
fourplay in crowded silence
                                       .......mixed doubles match


If Ducks had teeth
                            .......would they clack?

Premium Member Dishes and Cloths

Plates and saucers 
quietly in attendance 
behind the cupboard doors
lick their faded flowers
inside borders service nicked
as time ticks 
off the kitchen clock.

Pile smoothed dish towels
lie in neatly folded rows
as a checkered mate
doubles over the ice box
handle with nothing to dry
but a mother’s tears
for days gone by.

Lateness To Sickness

Written displacement
Oriented
Figures focus
Loose stance
Bile manufactures
Masculine
Angelic
Body
Doubles
Stretch new skin
Over the
Wise
Spicy neglect
You neglected
Your mind's
Obese child
Write letters
To dead
Virgins
It'll take your heart
Off trivia
Slice most glances
(If you read) Do not compare
Lateness to sickness
