Premium Member Seasoned Entree Huitain

I can be something of a ham,
take my energy or leave it;
Here’s the deal I am what I am;
Imperfectly immaculate
is the vibe I aim to transmit;
Addictive I have no gateway;
Left so hungry with a tidbit,
come feed on a seasoned entree.

Premium Member Combustible Huitain

Discombobulated design
will allow the mind to hover;
Dig deep or walk shallow it’s fine,
you are left free to discover;
View, interpret, and uncover 
combustible pieces of soul;
Each one different from the other;
Such beauty in out of control.

Premium Member Limelight Huitain

Lie to me but only on stage,
believe me I need to trust you.
I will be riding a rampage
if I have a reason not to.
Entertaining the payment due
is not a show you would enjoy. 
Prior to speaking catch a clue.
Leave it in the limelight, Playboy.

Premium Member Carnage Huitain

On the pirate ship lollipop 
all of your sugar I’m licking.
So addicted I just can’t stop, 
at baseline my lips are sticking. 
A smile and bubblegum tricking,
cute with emotional damage.
The bulletin isn’t clicking, 
set a fire enjoy the carnage.

Premium Member Unforgettable Huitain

So disciplined and distracted,
as it should be you’re an artist;
Wild imagination stays fed 
when you are passionately kissed;
Remain a modest hedonist,
breaking ground where it was stable;
Dedicate that to the process,
that rush is unforgettable.

Premium Member When I Heal Huitain

I’m holding onto harmony
with every shallow breath I take;
Careful I canoodle tightly,
one more step forward I could break;
I will not become a cupcake,
instead mirroring sugared steel;
You’ll need to do a double take 
to recognize me when I heal.

Premium Member Creases Huitain

Infiltrated each other’s soul,
now we are a complete image;
Neither of us given control,
conduits for this right of passage;
Restless responds to a cajole,
yes we are mosaic pieces;
The vision makes sense as a whole,
seamlessly blended soft creases.

Premium Member Winsome Chance Huitain

In a meadow of death a rose, 
our remains shed skin quietly;
Thorns fall out as we decompose,
A bit of you and some of me;
Feeding the soil triumphantly,
reviving a bloom of romance;
Caught the kiss of a honeybee,
fertilizing spring’s winsome chance.
Form: Other

Premium Member Newborn Skies Huitain

Upon the light of a new dawn 
my adrenaline starts to rise. 
I get after it with guns drawn,
the daily prize is that surprise.
I’m carrying lethal supplies,
my blood is on boil and rolling
A remedy like newborn skies, 
this new day whispers cajoling.

Premium Member Something To Cuddle Huitain

Every girl needs a teddy bear,
mine’s blue with a cloudy belly;
Something to cuddle when a tear
leaves you feeling so unworthy;
Facing the dark alone? Scary;
It is better to have a friend;
Any burden they’ll help carry
keeping secrets so you can mend.

Premium Member Flavored Buzz Huitain

Flavor guzzles an atmosphere
of cinnamon-dusted coffee.
Don’t worry there is plenty here,
a mug for you and one for me.
Sip slow but I will drink quickly 
lest it vanish without a taste.
Spicy sticks languish dutifully 
as our buzz is expertly laced.
Form: Other

Premium Member Coward Huitain

Pleasing me is easy to do;
A trip your rambunctious nature,
I’m happy just being near you;
Speaking with that brand of candor 
I get a buzz off of what’s true;
So why do you make it so hard?
Flying straight into such rapture,
caress me don’t be a coward.

Premium Member Stay Faithful Huitain

It was so very hard on me;
Your spirit on the radio;
saying that goodbye so softly;
"Baby it's time. I've got to go.
This world's wild as a tornado,
now I'm your guardian angel.
'Free Fallin' plays fast and then slow,
hear me with this song stay faithful.

Premium Member Skewed Senses Huitain

Together watching the sunset
the sultry shade mirrors my mood;
Paint a moment you can't forget
and add a 'To be continued';
Shouting at me yet so subdued
your whisper's the loudest music;
My senses always become skewed,
the sweet scent of love and magick.

Premium Member The Sweetest Nip Huitain

Branded eternally by blood,
beauty is no longer fleeting.
So burgundy soft with a thud,
from head to toe left secreting.
I’m a vampire rose, flesh eating;
I’ll always pick a lush dessert.
Your sugar spikes are depleting,
the sweetest nip could never hurt.

Premium Member Glamour Huitain

As you’re floating into a dream 
lemonade’s sweet elephants fly;
Caught in the glamour of a stream 
translucent rose petals drift by,
all you need is to simply try;
Relax fall into a slumber,
love’s the stuff of a lullaby;
Hold tight to that smile of wonder.

Premium Member Immersed Huitain

Fire burns through the old me raging 
it triggers my transformation;
The ashes fall with the cleansing 
and build a rugged foundation;
Flames bring about reinvention 
that forces my cocoon to burst 
and kickstart this revolution 
with passion I become immersed.

Premium Member Sundial Huitain

With flames our story has begun,
my eyes are blinded by your smile;
Our love was painted in the Sun;
I have not felt this for a while,
maybe this time I’m not on trial;
Was it fate or the time of day? 
Oh, serendipitous sundial! 
I’m in awe of the game in play.

Premium Member Shoot Straight Huitain

Honesty is an argument,
filters are roses and sunshine;
The truth is no longer present 
high on hot air as we decline;
Egg shell phrases but we aren't fine,
weighed down by the weight of phony;
Words and thoughts no longer align;
Can anyone shoot straight with me?
Form: Other

Premium Member High Voltage Huitain

Fireballs of far off feather stars 
lucid dreams they touch and tickle;
Diamonds dancing dazzling Mars
mirage of something magical;
It passed  me something practical
writing on my soul with knowledge;
Tossed in a well with a nickel
waiting to capture high voltage.

Premium Member Its Not Goodbye Its a Vibe Huitain

From the time we opened their door,
it’s not goodbye when it’s a vibe; 
Poetry lives forevermore, 
the strongest bond we are a tribe; 
Memories held so dear describe 
all the mics at Constant Coffee; 
We will write and never subscribe; 
Artists question authority.

Premium Member Transient Huitain

More than a little bit transient 
except when I look in your eyes; 
My soul frozen by your cement
grounded by faith my spirit flies; 
Balance is what you emphasize 
without a ‘you’ there is no ‘me’;
Our lows are the flip side of highs, 
the yin yang of apostrophe.
Form: Rhyme

Premium Member Rotten Idiot Sandwich Huitain

The inner stench hangs in the air 
permeating the entire room;
Straight funk is just too much to bear;
Residue swept up with a broom,
can’t hide decrepit with perfume;
What’s real and fantasy can’t switch;
Throw trash out or you may consume 
 a rotten idiot sandwich.

Premium Member Coral Skate Huitain

Flushed cheeks and filled with serene truth,  
on a lake of rose quartz I skate; 
Coral ice surrounds and starts to soothe
a warm smile slowly radiates; 
My temperature elevates
I do a spin and understand 
part of the dance is always fate;
If I slip hold onto my hand.
Form: Rhyme

Premium Member Head To Toe Huitain

Head to toe you speak elegance,
conversation adorned with glitz.
Within your world of opulence,
that rigid handshake transfers bliss.
Now between a hiss and a kiss,
drawn to grisly I can’t explain. 
My thoughts split hitting hypnosis,
smack dab into a speeding train.
