Not For Loan

Stolen from eternity,
   the feelings would not
  lend themselves—to words

(Villanova Pennsylvania: September, 2016)


A Loan

All I have is borrowed

Love and hope tomorrow
Old times and memories
Art mine read carefully
Not the road to follow

The Muse in the tower,
  whose debt you enthrone

Those jewels that you borrow,

Trump's Golden Rule

A man who cares about tomorrow
Is certain the day will bring sorrow 
So Trump's Golden Rule
Is, "Find any fool
And live well on all you can borrow!"

A Voice On Loan

Be it Melville or Tolstoy
  or a Pen still to burn

Know the words are just borrowed
  —until silence returns

Premium Member Ode to a Loan of Silver

Pale moon, a silver coin,
Dropped in the ink-well night,
You purchase fleeting dreams,
A loan of fragile light,
On a dark world below,
Where shadows softly creep,
A silent promise to keep

Premium Member to EACH HIS OWN OUR LIFE IS ON LOAN-

Posture heart beating
 Even though it’s evil, 
God can remold, soften –
and pour into it
To each His own 

I am not my own 
Even my life is on loan

Gods Beautiful Loan

Your a beautiful soul more precious then any gold.

Your a diamond in the rough
And heaven's missing angel 

Its as if the Almighty God has given me his most beautiful  as a loan and so I  claim you as my own..

Premium Member The Loan

What a blessing Children are !
For those who have them are gifted from Heaven above.
Our children are only on loan. So listen, talk, hug, 
enjoy every chance you have 
because you never know 
when God will collect the ones you borrowed.

Stimulating Pockets

They claim they care
How their bank accounts fair!!
As your health, to paramedics, they leave
Their next loan tranche to sieve

From curfew to lockdown we flit
As on their ample behinds, they sit
While the masses hunker down
The deep state's in town

Premium Member Life's Loan

The
Largest
Interest
Payment of all,
Is for time given temporarily
To each and every one of us at birth.
For some too soon
To others
Later,
But
One
Will know 
When final
Settlement due,
When age in its wisdom sways to the new.

Daylight Savings and Loan

We haven’t gained much interest yet
Save an extra hour of light
Which isn’t bad, but you can bet
It came right out of our nights

Come next statement there’ll be fees
And I’m sure that they’ll be lofty
We’ll pay back that hour, guaranteed
Boy, is daylight savings costly.

A Love On Loan From My Own Blood

A muse
came to me,
naked, yet I 

took it 
to my aged heart and 
warmed it by 

my breath 
then clothed it 
with love, 

a love 
on loan from 
my own 

blood. Oh muse,
go, go now and sail 
the many islands—

spread thy 
beauty, so perfect for 
the god of the sea!

Premium Member if I was a Loan Shark

If I was a loan shark
I would fail
some can ask exorbitant prices
I cannot ask for money at all

Some loan sharks demand thirty-percent interest
I would not even be able to ask for my initial investment.
always been shy about asking for repayment.

I would have to gift everyone their money
and I would go broke
it is my way

The Most Dangerous Loan Shark

A cold night on a dim lit back street
slinks a demon you don't want to meet

He is looking for a specific kill
for someone that forgot to pay their bill

His boss does not give mercy to any
even if one is only short a penny

So remember not to ever get a loan from the devil
because he does not take kind to those who do not settle

Borrowing a Loan To Pay the Bank To Reward the Future

Circuitous im sure
Who doesn't save to live?
Bet on the future
To ignite drive

let me switch gears
been idling in no man's land
Unapproved though prequalified (yarr)

Time to reside
but sentinals hawk my glance
Chance must be played
In a casino loft

Human rights im sure
To free trade agreement
What about squatter's rights?
To eat and breathe

On Loan

Where does insight come from,
where do answers lie
A mockingbird to mimic truth
in streaks across the sky
The echoes of tomorrow
retreat into the past
As crumbs from where it all began
form a new repast
The light belongs to no one
all live within its glow
To claim its brightness title banned
—and lease what can’t be owned

A Loan

Leave me a loan, so I can go on spending time endlessly paying for consequences.

Hand me the shrapnel from your pockets, then like a bullet, I’ll whistle passed you, and shoot to the moon while you eye up my shiny change.

Sing me your song, and I’ll turn your notes into a heavenly hit, with a score that’s off the record.

Leave me alone, or you’re gonna pay.

The Loan

My thought was our love
Was to big to fail
That we had more than enough
Until I found out

It didn't last long
All on account
Of the pressures we had
That started to mount

What I had banked on
What I thought we both had
I failed to use
The proper math

And now that it's gone
I wish I had known
That when we gave each other our hearts
It was only a loan

On Loan

My life, at times, seems not my own
My shoes feel two sizes too small
This body you see I have it on loan
My back is straight I'm standing tall

Till that time when my rental is up
On those days when my skin feels too tight
I'll remember how full is my cup
And my determination to not give up this fight

THE COST OF SUCCESS

I took a loan
to build myself a home
just a little space to breathe
to rest without chasing time.

For a while, I lived with ease
forgot the ticking clock
watched joy bloom like flowers
but never watered the debt behind me.

So I borrowed again
to pay what I once owed
then borrowed more to mend the last
circling like a bird with broken wings.

Yes, I tasted success
but couldn’t chew its fruit.
I had lost all my teeth
trying to do too much with too little.
