Patty Cat, Patty Cat, 
Sheath your claw;
Rat-girl and Cat-girl
Rollin' in the straw.

Submission
Your teeth, locked in steel jaw force,
         sink further into my skin, I wince.
You release.
        Your growl bespeaks your passion.

Premium Member The Divined
from the brewing storm's steeping chalice
the breath of death's journey awakens in quiet tides
beckoned by the stirring whisper of mortal winds
furrowed by stoic angels in pallid temporal skies

Premium Member Excerpt From Song of the Lark
The song of the lark returns

          To the edge of the woodland

                    She greets me cheerfully trilling

As I stroll across the flowering lea

Gusts upon the green blades buzzing with synergy
While morning sun rays placed its striped bee patterns
Cast upon my face like some radiant Zebra energy
From across the universal rings of Saturn

Ah! So soft it speaks in its gentle din
Enfolding gratitude in our hearts
To be mindfully given for peace doth impart
The beauteous wonder of nature therein

Blue Waiting
Breathe elegance
of gray green
lessons in simplicity
blue heron waits

I watch your
minor shifts in moving
I’ve already squiggled
a dozen times
while you peer tall
on your barnacled stage

I’d never seen
stillness so refined
estuary ballerina
extending time.
[Excerpted from the book with the same title by Sean Wiebe & Celeste Snowber]...
