Frozen to survive
Inside a mummified heart
A seed in slumber
Till enticed by the warm smile
To bloom in front of her eyes
The fog haunts,
The strobe taunts,
It’s time to start the show,
Pull back the mummified curtain,
Beware of bugs, birds, and black lights,
This is Halloween.
Mummified zombie
Walking down the streets of town
Collection of cats
Scampering alongside him
Threatens all that enter path
Russell Sivey
feeling mummified
someone sucked out your insides
you wish you were dead
***
riding the web
she is a spider
and weaves a web
for the next meal
as trapped in her tangles
you have no chance of escape
she mummified you
for the next meal
Died in the arms of cruelty
mummified...
rests in peace
Love
That mummified enigma
Bearing bones and thorns
To all who would taste of its blood
Love
That hideous façade
Which appeals to men
But at its tail dwells tears
Love
Is a biased inferno
Which leaves unsinged a few
And most burnt.
January, the first of the year, always waits, lulls, and wakes a nice cold feeling
Every year it comes and haunts me, it's like death, this month is the reaper for me
I feel dead, many Januarys have waited, and my soul has been mummified
I'm not alive
Life knows
Already gone
Comes and goes
Ancient Egyptians had terrific mummification skills
They practiced on a variety of lesser animals
hippopotamuses, cats, dogs, camels, and apes
there is non-living proof of their talents in their tombs
pharaohs and their queens were also mummified
Their mummification techniques are still admired today
the pharaohs phallus
mummified stiff as a board
tut tut naughty boy
By
David Kavanagh
True story this, when they opened Tutankhamuns
Sarcophagus, Imagine their bewilderment to
find King Tut's mummy, and his symbolically
embalmed erect phallus
Perhaps this is what Lord Carnarvon thought
The absence of touch attaches itself
To the narrow whisper of his heart beat.
Footprints echo in loving embrace
Of his fathers mummified conscience
There are memories that rise like the sun
On days when the leaves aren't kept
There are days when the rain won't come
All he wants to do is look outside And see him starring back.
Mummified body
Scouring on Halloween
Lurks into the night
The bandages falling off
Creepy skin is rotting
There are many treats
Within the old mummies heart
Candy corn inside
The living sweets
Keep the mummy alive
Gives kids their snack
The black cats keep watch
To guard these candy sweets
People avoid the cats
For fear that bad luck will hit
Mummies love their pets
Russell Sivey
they are yours
and mines;
the hard-boiled
cookery of virtuous noise.
a polyphony wrapped
in aluminum foil
on a tedious shelf
w/bits of mythic statuary,
petite reliquary
of gastronomic demise,
and jars of jazz
sit motionless,
mummified
in gifted dishes.
they are the cool
epistemologies
that gel I the mixing bowl of life
that sudden slap
in the face of time
and the subsequent freeze.
Wrapped in six yards of white muslin,
banished from her home with a tonsured head,
she faces a curse of loss of colours
ever since her husband was brought in dead.
Mummified for life she still exists
breathing, eating bland food, all desires unfed
Bare feet, she lays herself to sleep
curling up pillowless, on a cold wooden bed
But when she sleeps she often dreams
of butterflies and blossoms in purple and red.
"Skeleton Tree"
withered branches wane
buried bones beneath tree trunk
mummified death chant.
legends lifeless limbs
haunted hurricane swallowed
breath of bloom denied.
whispered memories
hidden skeletal remains
infest tainted tree.
brittle branches bough
parched to perish in black dust
screams in effigy.
*For Nathan's Skeleton Tree Contest.
*Written by: Linda-Marie The "Sweetheart" of P.S.
"Non-intervention by others or by other means than natural causation, accords the many hither before you the pain of death, and the many hereafter the pleasure of eternal life, " ...by The Poet.
formation fleeting forgiving ~
swelt sunset surrendering
drooping dusk dying ...
crying crescent cessation
traumatic twilight terminates ...
named numerated nullified
remains respite respected ~
shallow space shadowing
masking midnight mummified
permanent passage paradise ...
