Premium Member Dance In the Wind

You let the air out of my balloon
Before it could dance in the wind.
But a storm is brewing inside of me 
and I'm inflating myself again.

O beloved, liest thy weary head,  
Unto this imparting inflating chest.  
Heavy eyes, pleasant dreams simply ahead;  
A beateous mind need get its due rest.

Commercials By: Tom 3’24’2020 What you see Isn’t always what you get. Appliance or Mattress, or Mobile Device First, cheapen it up, go heavy on the advertising. Then, more importantly, give it some fancy name. After inflating the price, have a 30-40-even 50 percent off sale, Works every time! Baa Baa Baa

Lights Under My Favourite Tree

floating high
the leafs blow by 
grass grows and glows
light flows 
between the shadows
light breathing life
into the ground 
like lungs 
inflating  
growing 
glowing
patterns spreading
patches going 
soft flickering  
flowing 
magic bark
sky never dark
grass soft
with wind aloft  
like a beautiful 
moth 
it touches my nose 
I'm free 
I doze

Premium Member I'm Not Me When I'm Blue

Stealth and insidious
Slithery venomous viper
Creeping inside my brain

Uninvited and pervading
Vile contaminating poison
Infecting my fragile sanity

Dropping that black canvas
Of all consuming darkness
When I least expect it

Inflating guilt and shame
Grounding smothering
Clipping wings and victimizing

So stealth and insidious

Before we started

Before we started
I was convinced
You’d never want me.
Then you confessed.
You liked me
Or so you said.
If that was true,
Would you not
Have done more?
I’d come around
Every chance I could
In the hopes I would see you
For even a split second.
But every time I was there
I was just another body
Inflating your ego.

You never gave me
The time of day.
I gave you
Every second of mine.

Tired, Tired, So Dog Gone Tired

Tired, so tired, these games, you play,
My heart, ripples to the sound, in flute,
With exhaust ion, till the fingers bleed,
I hyperventilate, trying to catch breath,
But I'm so tired, so dog gone, tired, of,
These inflating promises, that you speak,
In return, it's not how, or why, you prosecute,
Your betray able lies, I don't want to hear them,
I won't listen, just got tired, so I got ear plugs......

Premium Member Dorothy And The Tin Man

When Dorothy and Tin Man were dating
She didn’t prepare for the mating
Til’ she heard a bang
And shouted out, “Dang,
Something inside there’s inflating”

Since Dorothy’s one chick he lusted
Poor Tin said he was disgusted
Coz there was no oil can
Nearby them at hand
To free up his zipper now rusted

As Tin was kissing Dorothy’s lips
He sadly knew he had to come to grips
‘Til she yelled, “My man
I’ll open your can
Coz in my purse I brought some tin snips!”
