pregnant,
shivering
nature’s held breath
gasps....

our existence
in tissue-thin gasps...

sun showers
a sweltering city
steamy pavement gasps

Gasps: "Oh Wow Oh Wow Oh Wow!"
Greatness is amazed....

Dream life awakens my soul,

Gasps at re-entry...

knead my beating heart
with gasps of longing whispers 
turn off the alarm...

Bleeding justice follows them
Darkness now bleeds lies

my heart
gasps for life
amid searing

              noel fragrance fills the air
              gasps are now a sigh...

Sizzling Summer

Heat hotter than breath.
Gasps squelched while sweat tickles skin,
Flop under the fan....

watching
a 1923
silent movie

watching
the cast's
exaggerated

gasps
of seeing
a black

and
white 
rainbow...

She gasps now, in pain 
As the gentle therapist
Extends her ballooning limb
  ~ In childbirth's pangs
     Ends always justified means...

Read More

In pain, she gasps for breath
As the trained therapist
Extends her swollen limb to death --
   In rehabilitation's pangs
   Ends always justify fangs...

Internal pain

Jagged gasps
Unruly mind
Stop it all
Terrible thoughts

Can't go on
Regrets appear
Intense emotion
Everything broken
Doubts pounding...

the magician
cloned himself
for his special act
in it the clone dies
while he yet lives
as he always did
nothing has changed
yet the audience gasps

Tainted View


A million faces, not one is yours;

A million commuters, hordes and hordes;

A million gasps, it’s him - there’s you;

But no, my millionth tainted view....

She held a seashell to her ear
But heard no soothing sea,
Just choking gasps of life caught in
An ocean of debris.

Somewhere
ears know
a silent peace
cadence delights


Somewhere
smiles run free
easy and light
unfettered


Somewhere
eyes roam beauty
engaging gasps
adore the night


Somewhere is not here...

Lies through the teeth,
Hands at the throat,
Free from security,
Safe behind the moat,
Last gasps of the lungs,
Eyes staring into infinity,
Above the tree I've been hung,
Begging for Him to intercede....

I’m in love with my first crush for 4 years. He is so charming, beauty, and his kisses. 
When I with him time frozen. He gasps for air as time unfrozen and he says to me in 
a cute way you are the apple of my eye...

The way to a man's heart is through nude girlie photos
Causing him to expel gasps as he basically goes loco
His eyes get all googley
As she wiggles her boobies
Drooling profusely from his gob by the bucket load...

a dying fire
aglow
beneath the pampering ashes
it breaths and sighs silently
while it smiles in transparent flickering
like a dozing baby
losing excitement into shallow gasps
it glints and sparks
before it kicks last and die...

The silence gasps like a lung during its final breath,
Yes or no is the only answer to the question.
To part ways or live as one forever til death,
eyes full of beauty are her lethal weapon,
our souls burning with love eternally resting....
