and they all live happily thereafter.

Howard Marks, a Clerihew

So, farewell, Howard, Mr Nice
Massive reefers were your vice
Life’s but a spliff to puff and pass
All grass is weed, all flesh is grass

Aging Marks

The enhancement of God's beauty

Is shown upon your Face

With marks and folds and creases

And lined with heavenly Grace.

Fingerprint markings on the fridge.
Tiny clues that betray mischief and secrets.
Slice of cake is missing.

On Your Marks

On your Marks…

Take your place 
Tighten your lace
Set your pace 

Seek His face
Keep His grace
Seize His brace

Run the race
Trail the trace
Attain the Ace

Stretch Marks

Your stretch marks are like a vast network of river’s guiding you deeper into the heart of the Amazon, and anyone who ridicules you wouldn’t deserve to follow them anyway

Marks In Sand of Beach

wild waves thunder throes 
gold grains of calm beach cradles   
marks in soft quicksand

I don't have to tell you,
You know.

You do have to tell me,
'cause I don't.

Razor's edge.

Stand your ground.

Or maybe we could talk it out?

Marks a Soul

Thinking too much
feeling too little
 —your message shrinks and fades

Forgiving yourself
holding others in sin
 —a soul that can’t be saved

BOOK MARKS


Read a book once.
It haunts me still.
Can’t remember the title,
the author,
or much about it.

Read a book once.
It changed everything.

"Show me your marks, my dear.", he asked his son,
Having not even passed his subjects one.
"Dad, I got zero in math
Following your trodden path",
The son replied hiding his feelings none.

Premium Member Scratch Marks

There is a solitude
at the core of beauty
that holds to a silence
when interrogated
by the mind. It stays
fixed in the moment
whilst I move 
leaving the marks
from my grasping nails
scratched across time.

Premium Member X Marks the Spot

Osprey
with it's tentacles
jutting out 
plunges 
into a shallow stream,
grabbing
a Rainbow Trout;
tantamount 
to an arrow 
hitting 
the center 
of the target!
Up and away it goes!

My Foots Marks

I came
I saw many good things and dad things.
I did a good thing.
That is why my marks are good.
As i was a good person.
Before i returned back where no one knows.
As now am no longer exist.

Premium Member Trade Marks

In a bygone age
Symbols then,were all the rage

Hanging outside,to catch the eye
A very visual...come & buy

Pestle & mortar,poles red&white
Or just three brass balls there might be

In days long past,
Few could read...but all could see.

Premium Member Our Bot Marks the Spot

In our palace lives a bot
    Quite a finicky task it has got

  Thrice daily removes every single spot
    from the royal server -- the '10-2-4' teapot  

  Our bot makes that teapot shine and sparkle
    in case you-know-who returns ~ Ms. Markle

Premium Member My cat marks her territory

Some cats mark their territory with claw marks
Shredding your couch, putting gashes in your vinyl seats.
Other cats leave strong urine in their zone,
a warning to others to “keep out!”
My own cat uses her spray paints and paints murals
Some call it graffiti, I call it "aggressively territorial”.

Forbidden Marks

Your easy motions set ablaze a hunger only my skeleton knew of 
Uncontrollably, my mind orbits the images of your nakedness instilled deep in my head
My innocent heart fails to cage the jungle of thoughts unleashed by your acts and doings
It is now too late to hunt. 
I am enticed by the forbidden marks you left close to my heart.

Tire Marks

Tire marks-

the tires sunk deep on the soft soil
I walked on the raised mound
guiding the grass and dirt 

into the tire thread mark
one direction
and then coming back 

squishing the soil on the other side
to where it belonged
a few more times

in a few days 
the grass will heal the wounds
and nobody will ever know he was here

Marks

one mark on the outside the other lays within
you can read it in my eyes and the way my body verbalizes
but if you want to hear it, if you want my lips to speak
the whisper that is in my heart and coursing in all of me
then you will have to tell me--tell me those three words
I can feel it and I can taste it...but I won't say it first
never again will I say it first

Kiss the Question Marks

Alright words i am taking your hand
Fill the blanks
Make me feel
Lay yourself before me verse
All poets of the saunter
These words pick themselves
in dishevelled moments
between false and the idea of something
Kiss the question marks
Applaud The Applause
The ampersand replaces at with @
I remember tears that never fell
and fell before i walked
and wrote before i spoke

Premium Member Skid Marks In the Sky

Like angels of death they feared no evil the best that ever flew. So with wings at stake downed aircraft thunder across the skies of blue. Pilots are proven mortal when mishaps occur in flight as falling planes, a ball of flames. Leave skid marks in the sky.. .....Dedicated to Navy Pilots....

SHREDDED PROSE

Exquisite
moments
                   float
                    to
and fro
to 
              and
                   fro
as
a
               feather
on
a
         breeze
                this way
and
that
              then
                   settle
as
a
letter
                  upon
                   memory's
welcome

Marks of Pain

Red sky so blue skin to rise
Pressure sores scratch to show more
Believing me was finding safe
The truth inside mask of face

Hidden away surface of pain
Not knowing why until lost in space
Covers to cry pillow to hold 
Dream no more nightmares of told 

Flicker of lantern shadow to stare
Unalome of ink on body of shame 
Bruises of numb no more to show
Reflection in puddles ripple of pain

Five Marks

You can answer 
If question is wrong,
If answer is right,
You can sing a song.

No need to think,
You need to do it quick,
You shall lose five marks,
If your brain is thick.

If you did it right,
You need a further fight,
If you did it wrong,
You need a back flight.

One plus one, why makes two,
One minus one it makes null too,
One multiplies one is also one,
One divides one also one is through
