Spirit wind passes by ---
A warm melodious song....

Release me!
I struggle to get free
Tethered loosely
Hope within painful grasp
Ease off then thrash about...

Slap my wrist
And it's aching
But I'm calm
Show me danger
Call it quits
But I'm calm
Stiffen up
Struggle loosely
But I'm calm
Undermined
And determination
In my palm,I am calm...

Loosely following local laws 
checking Henry's traps for claws

Up government cut 
down tarpon creek

Night-winds cool 
my sunburnt mind

Feasting like gypsies
listening for Bum Farto...

a slight breeze
and loosely packed snow
on yonder branch
comes tumbling down
in myriads of tiny snowflakes
each flake becomes a miracle
glistening in the streetlight
like a diamond...

Lips locked loosely
Tell me that I can open them
The door is only stuck
Not dead bolted with strength
And pursing my own mouth
The hinges are undone
While the wind of my breath
Opens your orifice...

Poor old Dan was a bit of a schmuck
Ran out of gas in his brand new truck
Now late for his date
Boy, was she irate
No hanky panky was his bad luck

and stars start to rise

a tired yawn escapes
but insomnia creeps in

essential oils fill the air
her lover snores softly...

Loosely held with my hands on you to
Loose, loose I must turn you loose
I can't hold on to you to tight
because it hurt that I might lose you
To a structure to tight to fit....

Just as I lost my footing
And the dirt slipped loosely 
I felt my body my life tumbling backward
My arms flailing before me
And then your hand
Keeping me grounded
Into your arms
Shielded from the harm of the outside world...

tropical raindrops in the open orchid
labial portals
loosely folded
a rouged acceptance

a decorative wheelbarrow
as green as wet moss
tilts to see

small pungent gardens
listen
to their hothouse fevers...

Alliteration in FALSE (5)

Forever fake forced friendly folk
Always arguing about abysmal atrocities
Loosely lying learned loves lavishly
Sending sinful sulci surrounding synopsis
Enveloping ears everywhere earnestly ending...

until you ask me again
and my answer changes
without my heart questioning twice
all for to weave a smile on your face
to not break the hanging threads,
falling loosely onto my knees
not wanting to lose you...
