Premium Member BRANDED

On all my cheap stuff 
With a permanent no label  waterproof Magic marker 
Its magic
Works for me.


Shell Marker

solitude and celestial light
reflections of most recent strife
I bury in sand with a shell marker
leave it there in shallow, salty water

Crashing the Gate

We searched through the desert
for a welcoming sign

But the truth was a grave marker
—our fate so inclined

Premium Member Pastoria

A silent stone cries to the sky
Heralding her tranquil graved name.
A windswept tree weeps autumn leaves
As on her limestone marker grieves.

Bite Size Poem No. 40 Poetry Contest

Life

I wonder how it can be that time is all encompassing.
This marker has embraced everything from the beginning of time to this moment...now this moment...now this moment.
So shall I live.


A Marker Abandoned

A final remembrance,
stuck in the ground
an unspoken milepost,
lost to be found

Standing defiant,
with time as the judge
a marker abandoned
—memory begrudged

barn swallows return from seasons I've never known to bring me new wings - my eyes scan the old dirt road searching for a summer lost

Premium Member He is not a monarch

He is not a monarch
Possibly an inquisitive moth
His black lines are distinct, drawn on by a heavy marker
reddish orange body contrasts with miniscule white dots
He stays around a bit, curiously watching our discomfort

Premium Member Grief

Here, but not touched.
Waiting...
for none but another ending.
Figurative pages are flexed, flattened
and shadows remain ungrasped.
Breath is unready for impact.
Staring at a stationary page marker stone,
I observe the outcome.

Civil War Marker: Vanderbilt Campus

History’s unpopular these days,
No one cares where Blues shot Greys,
Or where the tons of cannonballs were kept.
Union marker stands aloof, alone,
Monument of bronze and chisled stone,
And students giggle where the Northern troops once swept.

Whiteboard

A big whiteboard fills you, me and space.
We hover around with markers in our hands
And squeeze courage to make lines on the 
Plane. How heavy the marker is and how 
Dusty the eraser is. How large the board is
And how stationary I am, in that one corner.

Premium Member Promise of Emotion Dawn-

Lo! twilight marker glimmer shines the light; Glimpse of shattered colors rotating bright; Eyelids cut slightly open visage spawn; K aleidoscope rainbows promises comes dawn;

Wasted Tears

Tears- never knew a home
So accommodating, like
Diamonds- cut with blood 
So devastating the
Weakness- the marker of a soul 
So Broken, by
Shame-in a mirage of a life
So Hopeless because of the
Meaninglessness-I carry with me 
So futile these
Wasted-tears

The Call

Passing mile marker 75
I start to get young again
Reversing the clock the faster I go
Rod Serling fills his pen
At mile marker 80 my hair is back
my vision clear and free
And reaching 100 I’m safe in the womb
— returning unto Thee  

(Dreamsleep: March, 2024)

Premium Member Permanent Marker

Thoughts they flow so easily
I need a pen to keep on me
No paper? No problem, I have an arm
To write things on, these words of charm
And when I transfer them to here
Then all who read will know you're dear
But if I get a new tattoo
Wherever it is I'll just show you

My Daily

just a day longer.
and waiting just another marker.
too much time to bother.
patience wins against a lie the jealous heart its author.

comfort in the crater.
waters tide has washed.
stain free
separated flesh the ghost now atop the leafs
i feel truly free to wander.
Form: Sonnet

Permanent Marker

Warm water
Swallow me whole 
Up to my neck 
Slide over my lips
And puddle into my ears 
Close my eyes
The water climbs up to my brow
Pull the plug
The heat recedes 
Watch the bubbles sucked down 
The drain hole 
The water streams 
My body steams
I'm still not clean

Premium Member Flyover of No Return

Listen to poem:
Flyover of no return
David J Walker

I remember
Approaching 40

Going 60 miles per hour
Reaching for the marker 

That might curtail the power
And avail a slower pace 

A space that might embrace 
A respite in the race

On its way to 100 and
the flyover of no return

The Fifth Season

Always
A cold
Wet
Shift

Spring rains to summer
Sweat to fall
Rain to sleet
Snow to spring

Water
Sustenance
An element
But also time

A marker
Nature’s clock

Mine to know
That here comes change

Mist
Hail
Downpours 
And drizzles 
Giving me a chance to brace

Someone Help Us

They kept acting like a bunch of ancient idiots...
Screaming unto their, daemons see we told you so ?
Juicy Lucy, slithering past some fallon marker: checking
Their numbers basically they haven't got a frigging clue just
Spiraling through time a continuum in his or her disarray bleeding.

Premium Member The Demise of the Departed

THE DEMISE OF THE DEPARTED

It matters not what lies below
It's only a body in decomposition
The marker a resting place for a crow
The body below awaits a transition
One day that body will be resurrected
Let's pray their eternity is what they expected

That Accident Last Summer

What was the 
Crash like for 
Them? 

Guilty of 
Flirting and 
Magic marker 
Signs, aren't 
We all? 

And too young to 
Die without an 
Explanation. 

And you were
Like the other
Boys, with a brightness
and excitement for 
Life. 

Racing, in an SUV
You found the sleep
that so many of us
Envy.

Lekker Shaker

Ha, is Life a joy killer?
A sore loser? A penny pincher?
A dream wrecker? A home breaker?
Or is it a wisecracker? A joker?
A safe cracker? A bushwhacker?
A hell raiser? A heaven buster?
Or maybe, a trekker? A way marker?
A banker? An anchor? A timer?

Nah...Life is God's supreme Lekker!

Gravedigger

Placid, watching him dig a hole. Hope he's digging it for me. I feel pitiless tward myself, for i 
know my solution is sublime inside my fragile calm mind. gravedigger, make sure its nice 
and deep, so I may cuddle up in a forever placid sleep. No marker needed, well maybe a do 
not disturb sign.
