Growing icicles 
Breaking against "Kryptonite"
Are rendered fragile....

So glad I feel alive

Racing you at 90...

arresting his very flight…

hazelnut
tried it once
in coffee
my throat closed shut
had to have an EpiPen
will not try it again...

My mind's kryptonite
Compressed in a single name
Synonym for love
All that my heart has to give
All the dreams I wish to live...

Jack o'lanterns were all alight
To frighten spooks throughout the night
But there was an hitch
When a nasty witch
Made all our candy Kryptonite...

Large buttered popcorn 
biscuits and gravy with hash browns
monsters
caffeinated pop 
pot of coffee with cream
 everyone has their kryptonite 
what's yours?...

Kryptonite for my lustful methods of sweet seduction.
I am weakened when treated so much like a reduction.
My own body has always been the reason for his reaction....

Remembering Riply from their movie Alien settling into her pod
Embarking upon an unknown moment as time and I find myself there
Within this life another day to dredge whom knows, how long a child must endure...

Being a showgirl made her kryptonite
Bill kept it a secret for it was a blight.
At this time show folk were ostracized on sight.
She married his cousin who had his own light.
Bill always felt badly and kept out of sight....

The man lives in a fishbowl
  that's always patroled 
A high intensity microscope
  where in darkness he gropes

Every word always weighed
  by the left and the right
If Superman were President ~
  Nah, he'd rather take kryptonite...

love be kryptonite
to every superman ignite
that fall in love in flight
with that special superwoman and
for every super heart we trust tonight
that leaps over tall building and skyscrapers
in one single bound
shall find that 
super lover inside of you...

Mackintosh had a magnetic sister
who's eyes were green Kryptonite.

At age ten seductive Loke
(he of the windmill eyes),
set forest fires
where no fuel burned,
tormented nerves to abuse skin.

Mackintosh's sister,
no stranger to malarkey within
slyly winked....

i feel like E.T. 
   the light is too bright
   i feel like Bruce Banner
   my rage has such might
   my spidey senses tingle
   constant fight or flight
   jumping to the jiggle
   of my peripheral sight
 
   i walk like E.T.
   around kryptonite 


                         ***...

I saw you and immediately knew you were different, you had changed within months after you left 

a cycle repeats as you enter and return to my life, each time breaking me more than the last

Of course, I always give in because my heart simply crave for yours 

if only you felt the same...

Love is sight of the rising blood-
  m  o  o  n   kryptonite.  AS 
Crumbling words of lies dying 
  clashing blades as knives 
through the dark -- the Soul
pries wide my mouth with spears
 filling my pounding heart with
rejoice as scorn and defying
peace wrestle GIANT FEAR
into all opposing darkness!

Believing, that deep inside everyone of us, surely hopes....
As wishes the very best for any and all be life; misunderstood
Their chastised children running from Love's Angels while rushing
Unto his devil three doors down this, kryptonite ? If she goes crazy then, will
You still call her, Superman ? Flying high waving in the sky free birds; zombie land....

in darkness we all look the same ~ pawns can capture a king in the game

elephant president with crooked tusks ~ wears the fetid scent of musk

find the kryptonite to end his mad reign ~ America is in pain

DODGE, the felon ~ the Department of Donald Glorifying Elon

to snuff the flames of a gas lighter ~ the world would be so much brighter

Today’s the day that Superman
Fell to earth and couldn’t stand
He lit upon his neck all wrong
And found he was no longer strong
His super powers gone all right
His horse’s name – old Kryptonite

Mdailey	5/27/11

Actor Christopher Reeve (Superman) was paralyzed when thrown from his horse 
during a jumping event in Charlottesville, Virginia on May 27, 1995...

the hushed bitter cold of Winter in the forest 
as the ice hangs in the air whispering
the snow crackling under my boots
and frosty pure white snowflakes like filigree lace fall

I hate that you fight me
While your eyes shine brightly
Acting like I can’t see
That you still really love me

Your mom says that she see’s it in your eyes
Claiming that you hate me
When really, it’s all lies
Even your dad knows, it’s no surprise

When I’m in your sight
Everything feels just right
I become your dream knight
That’s why I am your kryptonite....

Listen to poem:

That green ring
gets into my head.
Where did it come from?
Why won't you say?
Why can't you take it off, now
just to please me?
But, you refuse.
You know that only you
have got that one thing
that I need.
The want brings me to my knees.
Overcome with weakness,
green about the gills
I can't breathe.
Get that green thing
outta my head!
Please, please I beg you!...

LOUDER THAN BOMBS
SILENCE ECHOES
MY CROOKED HEART
IS ON THE MEND
UNCERTAINTY KILLS
HOLDING TIGHT
TO THIS BALLOON OF HOPE
WORDS, MY LIFELINE
TELL ME
WHERE I STAND
ANXIOUS HANDS
WRITE THESE WORDS
EYES DART, SEARCHING
FOR THE BEACON
DISAPPOINTMENT, A SURETY
I'M LEFT
WITHOUT ANSWERS
YOU TOY WITH MY EMOTIONS
A CAT AND MOUSE GAME
I'M NOT SUPERGIRL
BUT YOU ARE MY KRYPTONITE....
