Flinging themselves off at the highest point
randomly committing suicide...

flinging paint onto everything I can
husband points out there is a mess in here
So I fling paint onto him too...

Romance
Courtly, torrid
Flinging, existing, wooing
Ever so sentimental

There was a man named Hickenlooper.
Who invented a dog poop scooper.
Something went awry
Flinging contents into the sky
And stinking the town into a stupor....

A HAND SHALL FILL

A pitcher is filled to the brim; water to the rim

"Flinging throw fast-ball across the mound sings”

meadow of the noon
wildflowers of all colors
raptly I stand still

flinging both arms wide
underneath the citron sun
I whirl and I dance

the hour of languor
has no way impacted me
I twirl in fragrance...

WTFWT@&#@*  I shouted at
Thunderous banging from above
Flinging my blanket off I looked outside, to
Watch roofers climbing up my apartment building
The cat leaping, running and seeking a place to hide...

Without you,

worn down, weary,
staggering into tomorrow,
dissolving my todays, grim, dreary,

I crawl, slipping out of my skin,
flinging laughter, joy, contentment,
into the gaping abyss of life's dustbin.

Without you...

Golden orb escapes
 from night born clouds
The grey sea smiles
 azure shades of welcome
Powder white seagulls
 sing out Hallelujah
The sky robs Turners palette
  flinging its contents
Smothering the air 
resurrecting my bay...

Thou art God,
O Naked Girl,
And all of Thee be fine.
I, too, God,
With air for wearing,
And all of Me be Thine.
Come!  Let's roll upon the bed
And set the springs a-singing;
Two into One,
God unto God,
Our virginity far-flinging!...

Ringing

  flinging

      swinging

    winging

Ringing beats , hips flinging thrill me… whole
Dance; swinging, winging as night- grooves roll !

Firs, oaks surround a path
Flamboyant in hued tints,
Forest of all dreamers
Flinging its lush canvas.
Fabric of buds explodes
Flushed with nature's splendor;
Flaming woods...evergreen!

Move
Branches
In the wind
Leaves flip over
The red berries fall
Small sparrows fluttering
Flinging birdseed all around
Ripples on the water’s surface
Designs in the language of the wind
Moving my emotions until the end

Do you ever dread sending your new poem into that black hole,
for fear it won’t come out the other side with an intact soul?
Oh, pay no mind to those goddamn critics,
who love flinging their faulty analytics.
Don’t let any of their cruel comments take its toll.

While I watch her, an adored jewel,
Flinging on with my old pal
She crashes from the pedestal,
Like a burst of glass
As love etches death on the alley.

The Goliath reaches deep underground,
grabbing a hand full of coal
Crushing the black rock in his huge maw,
polishing it to gleaming diamonds.
Flinging the treasure into the ebon sky.
So at night we can look heavenward,
and enjoy  a million stars
 in a midnight sky....

Day 
after day,
night after 
night,
the lonely tall pine
embraces her many
lodgers
in her stiff outstretched arms.
And in every nook and 
cranny they forage, hunt and horde
before the coming winter.
And in 
return 
they
flinging 
their refuse
to the soft earth....

A sudden wind ripples over the staid waters
whipping around like a blustery drama queen 
flinging water droplets in its wake.
Placid pigeons are suddenly stirred
wild wings whir, along with excited coos
as the midday sun smiles through the clouds.

Sometimes I go on a weird out-of-my-head writing spree
Devouring crazy insane ideas
Spitting them up onto a page
This morning is one of those maniacal times
Thoughts are flinging themselves at me
Demanding to be not only heard, but shared
I feel it would be dangerous to ignore them...

re post inspired by my latest contest

cHaoTiC mOTioN a POLLOCK EKPHRASIS

Flinging, splattering,dripping drop..by..drop
Unaware of the present,random spontaneity
in liquid flowing paint.
Motion made visible,memories
arrested in space,the painting 
lives a life of its own in pure
harmony of easy give and take....

I am doing the thumping bumping rabbit hop
I jump and bounce, no place to stop
My feet are wiggling, my tail is jiggling
My hair is flinging around like a mop

You cannot stop me, I have to move and groove.
The rabbit understands the weird ways I move.
We dance the wiggle jiggle and love it so!
I take my rabbit partner wherever I go....

Lois looked super dainty and delicate
With lace collars and tiny white linen gloves
Shiny patent leather shoes and pink ruffles
she sat as if on a throne, a little princess

Her three brothers knew better.
They called her the lava flinging volcano
When they riled her, she gave better than she got
She was a terror, cloaked in a little girl costume...

Henry was hopping around on a foot or three
we all laughed at him not realizing 
he was grabbing the girls attention

We were in eighth grade
all we cared about was our height
None of us was half as tall as the girls

I finally figured it out why Henry was a clown 
he was gyrating like a top 
flinging them here and there
we took his leftovers gladly...
