The dealer dealt the hand with deft finesse
Black aces and black eights
Felt the muzzle on my neck.

The Young Turkey

The young turkey started to crest
Then got tricked into a large nest
His feathers were pluck
He was naked as a duck
His get away was done with finesse

A Chicken

A chicken searched for her eggs
As she ran on her long legs
Ended up at the wrong nest
Ran into a stud named finesse
But came home with sweet daddy long legs

Mysterious Way

The wind blew with howling excess
That lifted our pastor’s wife’s dress.
The flock saw her thong
And he hollered “wrong!”
Then lowered her skirt with finesse.

Fame

success-
the enamel
disguising a mess
where the meaning
becomes less and less
forsaking confusion
for a state of illusion
with a gesture-
of subtle finesse

fairies weave a silk necklace

                  droplet pearls of pure finesse

His drink the black beauty foaming and thick
toasting St Patrick until he gets sick
then off to the loo

cuz ya can't teach an old dog a new trick

Discoursed

Better to slip through
than run over

Better to finesse
than to force

Better to persuade 
than to dictate

Discretion
—all meaning discoursed

Finesse

mosquito messiah
follows feeds swallows
such needs create 
much madness
(so squint & see
the imprint it's me)
with finesse lapping
up the mess flapping
wings for the sheer 
hell of it

The Nightmare

Awakened dreams, nightmarish quips
Jaundiced tear drops, blooded thrips

Winter's sloe, wrathful mourn
Howled wails, petalled thorn

Fingers touch, perusing caress
Sullen smile, blackened finesse

Formidable floundering frisky fish followed furiously, 
Flogging fourteen flustered freshman froggies
Furious followers filed fine-tuning finesse
Frostily furthering fruitless froggy fortitude.

Premium Member Celestial Songs

Chords  upon strings are played with finesse
bringing forth celestial  songs
As angels their slender strings caress 
 A symphony of harps played by heavenly throngs
soothing the soul  while they bless

Premium Member Jess and Ness

There was a big serpent called Jess
Who lived on the banks of Loch Ness
At night he played chess
With Ness, though I guess
The game was devoid of finesse.

''Destiny Arrives''

The finesse of the maidens' hair lay smooth over her soldiers' chest.Her supple
breasts,the bridge of her hip consumes his body.This divine design may it cradle their
hearts.For this night,passion be set.

hours of passion
and finesse
elevating her craft

spider webbings

Bullied Soul

You found time to bother me
Time to effect my very existence
Worth questioning
Stronger I should be
Blame me
Blame my calm soul for its finesse
None like the rest
Blame me
I blame
I'm getting better

Premium Member My Guitar

Morning, noon and night
You are my delight
I think of you, I dream of you
Desire burning bright 
Your neck I do caress
My fingers a warm breath
They stroke the strings
Vibrato rings
Coaxing with finesse
