Hissing like a snake
Bending the heads like sleeping woods
Telling lies and exaggerated stories
Laughing like a crazy mouse
Imagine all these without a profit....

Only idiots believe fabricated, exaggerated, the same stories everyday by different insecure strangers who didn't even meet the one they judge, in person, even just once.

at work playing games, mistake

The triggering of an awakening 
may not be so intense ;
Conceptually applied to a visual 
may even appear exaggerated, yet
The minds eye searches the unknown,
Only to reintroduce itself, too Self.......

It is over
dissipating while dancing;
Tapping everywhere loudly
 now grossly exaggerated;
The beginning came in the end;
Exaggerated grossly now
loudly everywhere tapping;
Dancing while dissipating, 
           over is it?...

Double Haikus

This warm CA spring
The exaggerated fears
Flu kills more every year
.

All fear death blood sells
All God's goodness forgotten
Sucked in by media hell

Again you glare like i am not there
Bring forth your memories i am the one you've loved
Care not if you must, what we've shared can never fade
Dare to hide?, the truth is startling
Exaggerated amnesia, that only in your presence i seem to hear about....

a spittle of rain
pains me to wake
taking my mind
making thoughts
as if to be being
the gnawing
of rats

in the walls and 
floor boards
an exaggerated
sound knowing
i've found
traps set
in my head

instead of
putting a
bucket
down
underneath

You twisted
All I said
Exaggerated
And warped my words
I trusted you
Didn’t think
You capable
Stabbed me in the back
Why would you
I trusted you
Let my guards down
Believed in you
I trusted you

I open the milk to pour some in a tumbler
Only to find it has turned so sour
I scrunch up my nose in decided dishumour
Finding the vile taste like an unwanted tumour
I look at the white liquid as I pour it down the drain
I find no words to show the exaggerated pain
Sour milk...

Whispers of cloth,
flowing like water
graceful.
Movement,
contained,
and exaggerated.
A step here,
stretch there,
pause.
Pose,
all eyes on you,
spins, turns,
a dizzying array
lights and colors
are one.
Guiding,
music takes a hold
taking over,
nothing else matters....

encompassed in ivory rhapsody
she craves affection from mankind's
transgressions 

though she's hidden, she's 
protected from life's perpetual
spasms of disregard

~ cloaked in sheets of exaggerated obscurity ~

You strut with pink, exotic flair
an exaggerated bird with Picasso shape
your wandering neck and abstract beak
bend and toggle, squawk and pace
your splindly legs cause a rumor
wildly fascinating and long on humor
asleep, adoring a one legged stance
unique, you deserve a second glance....

I popped out of a pink egg carton on a fine Monday morn.
Entered an eggbeater contest, ended tattered and torn.
Drank egg cream, did the most marvelous egg dance.
Started to England and ended up in a chateau in France.
Had a swig of fancy eggnog, Italy is where I landed.
Turned into an exaggerated egg-atic, sneaky, devious, and underhanded....
