Premium Member SPEAKING TRUTHS MEANS ALOT-

Vigilantes heavy handed with their mouth Their eyes are crying , they hear the tears Nourishment flees from their heart Starvation trolls the diminished dark Speakings "truths" means a lot

Bottoms Up


Heavy handed was the pour
convex cap to rim of glass
chasers iced and doubled back
dry toast to soothe an empty flask.

Innkeepers have their history
in treating drunkards mystery
disguising in replete display
the demon haunts their every day.

Bitter bitty Betty bullied brute Billy
Choosing caustic comments, some so silly
Disgusted, divorced Danny deemed her a dilly.
Eventually evading Ernest, Eddie, Elyse and Elly
Forever forcing Freddie into fashion frenzy frilly.
Gathering grave grievances, grazing grief counselor, Gilly.
Harvesting heavy handed horrors, hampering Billy.

Premium Member Self Doubt

Wouldn't you love to know,
The love I failed to show;
Because I failed to see,
All the love in me.

Doubt that was branded,
By those heavy handed;
Who only commanded,
In the first degree.

They spawned indecision,
And lacked the precision;
To guide on my mission,
Out of gross misery.

The flames of desire,
Was meant to inspire.
To lift youself higher,
And set yourself free.

The Fifth Ace

Monotony is a fleeting existence;
small and simple, yet
overbearing and heavy-handed; 
paternal in nature with
demeaning discipline. 
Improvement is not inevitable
or impulsive, instead
enigmatic at snail-speed.
And we look to the heavens to 
reveal their cards; four 
omnipotent aces cry out, 
unimpressed, knowing all
along the location of their fifth 
brother, flirting with the 
hand of God.


Chilled

Leaves giving gentle kisses to the ground,

Autumnal winds waking the sleeping trees,

A lover so gentle and kind, waiting. 

But then everything is stripped to the bone. 

White powder blankets, stripping all warmth

Look up, the naked trees shatter the skies. 

Fall weakens us so winter can come through. 

Heavy handed, red faced, freezing, shrinking. 

Breathing out ghosts and burning them away.
