Premium Member I'M Nobody Yet I Write
I’m Nobody! Yet I write.
Do You - Write - I’ll bite!
Nobody reads poetry these days.
Save - You and I - Silly knaves!

How brilliant - To write!
To bring words to life.
Make them dance across a page.
Let’s write - Anyway!...

Her Eldest Daughter
Methinks thou mayst receive mine words as false;
Her eldest daughter at a stew-house tups.
Come hither, pray - and see with thine own eyes 
We lusty knaves surround that saucy wench
To make the two backed beast.

For Lisa’s Old English Scandal contest...

A Boring Sight Is Black and White
A Boring Sight is Black and White A bias comment damages existing faith, garnering hostile ignorance. Jeering knaves labeling masses; normality overly praised; quickly racism subjects terror unto victims. Wry, xenophobic yelling zealots.

Premium Member The Rise and Fall of US All
Malice laced with blinded hate

Motives based on tempted fate

Marching knaves will hear the call

Making slaves of one and all

Tyrant's goals are up to date

Tattered souls are now too late

Tactics wise begin to stall

Tensions rise and nations fall...

Outlaws
A length of knots makes crooked necks
That's bound by ropes to gallows
Tied by lore and judges hands
And braided by deeds of fellows
And though the graves of many knaves have gone unmarked with cruel intent
Their kin be sworn, with devils scorn
That they will not soon forget...

Pond Life
Koi in the pond
     Shrimp on ice
     Sauce for fish
     Sliced or diced.
     Frog in the mouth;
     Dry, brittle tongue.
     Disallowed pleasures
     Knaves, little fun.
     
     Trips near the edge.
     Waves in my hand;
     disallowed pleasures,
     Nearly known; not allowed....

Red Swelling
Red swelling

Red swelling, curving waves, barbed for protection, the picking knaves. Sweet detection, granted wealth, scent luring, casting tempered spell. Grasping the knowing, needed want, you the restoring, making the wanting, long will I dwell. Oh, Season last long, thanks for the giving, Rose, I know you well....

Premium Member The Ocean Calls
I hear the Ocean call from cascading waves, to sailors and knaves. I feel Her misty breath on a foggy night when the air turns white. I smell Her salty spray saturating me; the fragrance of free. I taste the bitter-sweet essence of Her kiss; the promise of bliss. She calls Kings and slaves to watery graves; I hear the Ocean call from cascading waves.

Premium Member ALPHA WAVES
Blissed out on soothing alpha waves, Bewitched by fabulous fiction, Accepting anything with clever diction Crooned by fabulists, charlatans, and knaves, Sitting in a basement, unseen, Parroting drivel on a laptop screen, Mixing groveling groupie activism, Sharing images that birth angry pacifism. Shrug your shoulders, why be a grouch? Feed your face and stay on a couch.

Blood Will Follow
May I know?
Why after peace
Blood will follow?

Under the moon and sun
Our sorrow,gives way
To the dawn of tomorrow

Our tears drop,
But not even the rain,
Can match the blood that follows

Kings and lords bet,
But only Death wins the wager,
And the outcome is set.

Both knights and knaves,
They fought so hard
And now they lie in unmarked graves.

Sad is it not?
That after peace
Blood will follow....

Holding
Hold them tightly but be sure not 
to clench
When knaves and thieves come for
seizure do not flinch

Walk in the light, that's where your
protection lies
Through the darkness, by all means, continue
with lithely strides

Holding and carrying the promise from 
a long ago
Remembering from whence you've come and
where you must go

Holding, 

Holding, 

Holding fast to your beautiful dreams
Following that starry spirit within that gleams...

Indeed, we have given up.
Freemen, once...now happy slaves?
No longer able to drink from a Church cup.
We are the most willing knaves.
Tragically, to those who unlawfully 
locked us up.

Stockholm Syndrome has us by the throat.
We are grateful to our masters for our lifelong 
sentence?
Never realizing we must be the butt of jokes.
Contended as our end draws near.
Taken prisoner by a phenomenal,
life-demeaning hoax.
