Premium Member Edward Hopper: Gas

where is the back road
that passes this place

- a gas station refuge
between nature and night

and who is the man
with the half hidden face

working / existing
in ethereal light?

Premium Member Want a Cookie Spider Santa

Spider Santa had a sticky sack.
He pulled it low behind his happy hump back.
It was full of flies, and the head of a hopper.
Can I get you a cookie? Mrs. Santa asked.
He had no way to stop her.

Premium Member Edward Hopper: Nighthawks

his distant still palette
of ambient light
painted the silence
of hawks in the night

catching a sadness
that hides in plain sight
in an air of detachment
that hints at their plight.
Form: Ekphrasis

Premium Member Edward Hopper: House By the Railroad

bathed in still shadows
from an afternoon glow
and wrapped inside splendour 
half faded half gone
this house from a time
remote silent and slow
stands trapped by the past
in a world moving on.

The Eatery

urban alienation
pehaps ambiance of loneliness
or circumstances ambiguous to show

Premium Member Sir Reginald Frog Hopper

Sir Reginald Frog Hopper is as stuck up as they come.
His arrogance comes from his business, a favorite gum.
Few friends he has, actually, no one calls him a chum.
He has no knowledge of people, in that, he is kind of dumb.

Premium Member riding a hopper

He jumps on at the top
And the hopper bucks and kicks
But he is a resilient mouse
Whose knees are truly thick

He holds on past the daisies
The buttercups, and a daffodil
He never falls off,
While riding down this hill.

Premium Member Frolicking Flirty Elusive Entities

elusive ethereal energy evades each extra entity

frivolously frolicking, fearlessly, forever flirty 

gratefully gleaning gentle grievers’ gratitude

happy heavenly hopper hastens home 

impulsive imaginings, intriguing, interested idealists

Inspiration- Automat By Edward Hopper

Evading sleep...dress,
Walk in the dark cold night, street lamps 
Out of the darkness
Welcoming open doors of the automat
Stop and sip the hot bitter, sweet nectar
Reflecting my soul in your panes
While the city sleeps...
Because...I can.

A Grey Maharajah Speaks

At five of the clock an immigrant species from the Raj speaks,

"woort tooo - teee tau", a grey maharajah on our hopper window 

waking us up to another sunny, hot English summer's day we dream about

or have nightmares as is our want; remembering or misremembering our childhoods.

Premium Member Edward Hopper: Automat

an automat whose orbs of light
reflect and touch the void of night

a refuge from the twenties’ roar
trapped in her thoughts without a door

a table, cup and gloveless hand
alone together in her land

a bowl of fruit that sits behind:
the 'still life' and her state of mind.

Premium Member Poetic Confession

I can not dance
Nor can I sing
I can not paint
Not even by numbers

So here I sit
I write line after line
Of heartache and love
Of loss and pain

I am not an artist
I must be a fool
For all of my writings
Profess my love to you


Notes: Inspired by the paintings of Edward Hopper
