I have had my head there many a time
Lodged wherein the sun don’t shine
So sad but true
Everyone knew
When it popped out I would be fine

What Price Freedom?

Lodged in oyster shell, irritating grain of sand, grows pearl of great price. Being beautiful, and imprisoned in dark shell, it longs to be free.

Premium Member Heartfelt farewell

Standing tall dressed in regalia
twenty-one gun salute detonates
a lump lodged deep in my throat
combination pride sorrow and so much more

Perfect Symmetry

A house
with perfect
symmetry

Lodged
behind a willow
tree

Seeing all
that goes
around

Firmly dug
into the
ground

People have
not lived
in it

Silent
watching as
it sits

Holding
many memories

Keeping
perfect symmetry
Form: Rhyme

Sine Nomine

The largest rock I stand upon
is anonymity

Lodged within the silence
of myself

Calling from those distant lands
in names left blank and mute

Insuring my obscurity
—unknown but deeper felt

(Dreamsleep: November, 2020)

House, With Heart At Peace

If but one- roomed for
A dim lit shy one's 
Quiet corner view
For a heart at peace, so lodged
And so fixedly

A more bless'ed place 
What towered, royal
The ancient past o'er.
Facing, what for world's dangers
Scanned, defensively.
Form: Rhyme

With

1. with a fragment of devotion still lodged inside her heart, he lives on.
2. with his last bastion of hope, he called out her name and the stars fell down.
3. with their red ribboned love affair splitting and fraying words were no longer enough.

Pomegranate Heart

She counts the seeds
Of my pomegranate heart
The same, always the same
No matter how many times she counts.
Her fingers are stained 
And though she may wash and scrub
There I will be
In her skin, lodged in places
Where she cannot wash me out

Our New Love, Painted Therein

Brushed in days, with most allure
In Summer portraiture
Blazingly shone, if shade-flecked.
Brightsome smiled, if shy-hid!

Therein as their main subject
On that does most reflect
New love, God. For that yet dried is
Was as sweet-lodged amid?

anything can happen...
as ridiculous as it sounds

like a...lodged-hic can...

end-tear one's mind and so some...
't'-(rain-a-sour-ass) rump starts yelling farts

claiming that the game board is his and...
so too...is your future

In Mere Memory Lines

Something somebody knows lodged in his mind safe,this is knowledge.It’s very powerful and shedding light to walk right,fluctuates knowledge up and down like water in a lake,intaking of food in excess erasing the lines of memory as per prophet Muhammad said!

Premium Member The Fray

Sickness incredulously slipped the noose
wormed its way past healthy constitutions
and lodged spear like into Adams’ rib

Tenaciously Life held back 
marshalling the frontline
lymphocytes funneled nutrients
from Mother’s soup
into the societal fray.

Premium Member First Runner-Up

First runner-up;

is missing the mark
disappointment
a block of ice
lodged in your chest,

is not winning
the award
pain
pressed and growing,

is stand naked
in sequined gown
teardrops, silent
coursing in your veins.

Only a sap
swallows
second place.

Premium Member Plastic Bottles

drinkers from plastic
diet pepsi addicts hear
twice the micro beads

of fractal plastic
lodged in your body systems
on an average

scale of health diets
and population samples
of FOREIGN OBJECTS

in sampled people
stuff that summons class action
lawsuits for billions

Chirp On

lodged in an ugly crack on the burnt wall

                of a cruelly battered brick building

in a war-wounded city,


                is a fragile nest of feather tufts and twigs

                                  rebuilt again and again by one

                now joyfully chirping !

Premium Member Bedrock of Beliefs

Bedrock of beliefs

beliefs interfere
with any notion
of who we are..
beliefs lodged in
our ego selves
stand as protection
of the ego itself..
beliefs may have
been founded on
a bedrock of truth
but now are
trying to endure 
as a curtain
blocking our view
of our luminous
and joyful  
Bedrock...

Something of Magic

In chambers lodged
stretch thy hands
...oh sorcerer
wide spread with staff
and golden garments.

Speak thy vowels...
sulfuric spells
in broken language
high-pitched
as thunder.

Silent in corners shadowed
behind thee...rests
initiates
vulnerable in view of
gymnastic magic!

Magic Words

A Tiger Woods Dream

I went on to the links
With Tiddle-Lee Winks
To knock balls into the woods

We prayed the golf gods
Would shorten the odds
Of finding some lost Riding Hoods

Our balls went astray
And lodged in the clay
Where Adam was resting anon

With balls to foreplay
Adam went on his way
Ere Eve could change into dawn

Premium Member First Draft

Such a vast array of things I could tell you
Sometimes I don't know where to begin
How beautiful you are? 
How incredible your smile?
How my knees become weak when you sing?

Tell me about what you're thinking
To help my focus narrow
Then I'll tell you what's lodged
Down deep in my heart
For you and you only to know
Form: Rhyme

A Nimbus

you move like a hefty pin
on a rail,
anchors lodged to every limb,
like a guilt ridden prisoner.
you strike at an impression,
as if flightless,
feathery.
but your disguise
is utter pain,
deceiving.

move on! move on!

abandon your heavy ways.
find a release.
perhaps during a seasonal drought?
i know some would appreciate that.

Poison Dart

A poison dart lodged in my heart
One kiss is deadly
Still when it comes to you I can never get enough
A train wreck, my love is crazy
Two souls clashing, smashing apart
A world of kaos, you break me
Trouble in my mind as sanity I can't find
But that's the way it is
So leave me before I die
Till I fall out of life
Till I no longer want 
To want you..

A Bullet Dodged Or a Bullet Lodged

Are you a bullet dodged, or a bullet lodged 
Deep within my heart
I feel so alive as you’re killing me
Tingling in the tangles of betrayal
Am I your victim or my own prisoner
Locked, tied and bound
I cannot move on with or without you
Hope and desire wrestles violently with strength and courage
If I cut the tie, will I die or will I fly
Away

Premium Member Accepting Losses Andt

that's what it is to be a slave
but now you know the truth
and are no longer blind
outcomes are known
history cycles like a clock
it is discrete and you are not
less than this being lodged in time
captured and held upon the water wheel
that goes round and round and nobody knows
when the 'court' count will have no more use for you
