Leonard Nimoy

Leonard Nimoy (Mr Spock),
His music career quite ad hoc,
Sang of Bilbo in sixty eight,
With his fringe still Vulcan straight.
Form: Clerihew


The Wet Tulip (Tanka)

Sopping wet tulip
Tries hard to conserve droplets
Caught in rainy day
But cannot stop dripping
Out of fringe of the petals

Death's Revenge

Today’s gone wild,
  killers on the fringe

A life to take, its fate to make,
  tomorrow—death’s revenge

(Villanova Pennsylvania: April, 2019)

By All Means

By all means
I'll win
While in all these
Piled up of things,
Things i cannot think,
File upon the fringe
Of my only will.

Three Lights

first night—
the soul’s fringe still shining hazily
the last night—
as though knowing time has come
morning comes—
a firefly spends all its light

Lunatic fringe
Fervent. zealous
Closed to any other information
Closed to any other possibilities
I prefer spending time with a large poisonous Puff Adder.

Wrangling the Fringe

The actor sells derisive fears
to ferment bald lies in our ears.
It's clear that Glenn Beck
is more than just dreck,
there's dollar-signs behind those tears.

Premium Member Fringe

On the fringe of the brink on the brim.
The tip of the edge on the LEDGE 
A clip of the hedge.

Nothing is the same

                                        counterclockwise breeze
the fringe of Fall                          inside-out
                                             static headspace

She

A dry wind lifts
a damp fringe of
gray hair.

She is wrinkled,
her mouth sunken
over dentures.
She's as thin as dust
but glows
on the edge of her ruin.

The earth aches
to make love to her.

Coffeetop Locks

ah Coffeetop Locks
be the witch’s fox
a cunning you pair
in hand on the fringe
of village life wings
but inward at night
for her work
where you light
then quickly on hocks
ah Coffeetop Locks

Cringe After Hearing About Binge

Cringe After Hearing about Binge

Regarding disaster we were on the fringe.
And about the thought will always cringe;
Then we worried,
While they hurried;
Heard they had been on a drinking binge.

Premium Member Cotton Laughter

Just
a bit 
too formal,
pearl taffeta 
or buttered chiffon;
I’m more into cotton,
something to belly laugh in;
Toes in the sea or a theme park;
Stained all over with a good time,
living in a tank top with rhinestone fringe.

Premium Member Christmas Things

My all-time favorite books include Christmas in some way
Santa Claus, Jesus, North Pole and candy canes dancing away
Frosty and Jack Frost are on the fringe of my utmost fave.
Christmas messages, stories and songs are what I crave.

Premium Member Nostalgic

Nostalgic--
Life has been 
like riding fiery waves 
in the belly of the beast—
Memories of my rusty old past
hanging somewhere on the fringe
of disbelief and forgetfulness…
Never to be re-told in truth or sequence.

Shadow Lights

Shadow lights reflecting 
on the tattered fringe
of soul,
the shiny threads reminding me 
that yes,
I once was whole.
The  remnant of a garment
That they now use as a shroud
wrapped around the sad remains of 
one who once was proud.

Premium Member Her Last Impression

Sun beams accurately placed,
loiter behind cliffs. Shadows
form female face, in lakes fringe.

Legends tell of mature curse
deceitful waters, ensnare.

Unbalanced minds,
death plunging
simulate barnacle geese ~
to inherit her beauty
