Premium Member The Numbers Had a Breakast
The numbers had a breakfast.
The numbers had a tea.
The numbers drew a line in the sand.
And none invited me.
I discovered later that it was a thought-out action.
For none of them thought I was a “proper” fraction....

Fire
forty-nine years of desire
fifty-nine: too early to retire
a line in the sand
On the one hand
FIRE!
On the other
WATER ...
On a sacred hill, a virgin roams with childhood companions
before the Sacrifice!
Mother's regret
single, separated ......

Premium Member Line In the Sand
Obama drew his mighty line in the sand
Dare ye not to cross me

Assad replied in kind
Gassing thousands and laughing

A little Syrian boy has drowned
Siblings to weak to cross that mighty line

Salvation was the evasive dream
Father shall never escape the nightmares...

Premium Member Time Won't Wait
Unbridle your cluttered mind 
Keeping your nose to the grind 
Focus on the task at hand
Drawing a line in the sand

Shake the dust off dreams and goals 
Make things happen as drum rolls
Time is so short in this world
Line drawn in the sand unfurled

Premium Member The extreme right
Being extremley the opposite of slavery
Freedom, also takes effort and bravery
Being in honour together; is prequsite'
Selflesness in support is a requsite
Draw your line in the sand 
share ideas take your stand!
Upholding  your rights, 
Cannot now; be 'left' to
Those 'old' davos-ites.!

A Poets Picture
a poets picture, a wordsmiths maze 
a beautiful painting , by an artist who’s crazed 
poetry is blues without any rhythm 
like serving a lifetime in a self made prison 
still one true and  guiding light 
expression of thought so i can sleep at night 
pen on paper or line in the sand 
can it stand the test off time...

Receding Shoreline





Throbbing heartbeats rise,
Patience draws a line in the sand,
Tears swallow my pride,
Turbulence persuades the tides,
Anguish engulfs the shoreline !

Forgiveness Now
How long does it take
For the Old Sin to wash away
Will there be a time when
Forgiveness becomes the cry
For those who have transgressed
And crossed the line in the sand

Do we start again at this time
Or have they been punished enough
Even when executions occur
The opinion is that they have
Paid the price for their deeds
And allowed to rest in peace.
