A seaman  called, "Octopus" Dennis
Was known to the girls  as a menace
A sign from Above
Predicted "True Love"
"But you gotta go out and play tennis!"

Omen

There are ways
To put up with things,
And there are ways
To give up...

But NOTHING is more
POWERFUL
Than
(A)
MAN
GONE
MAD!

A Keyboard Omen

Modern world with modern modems,
AI, Wi-Fi, modern day totems,
keyboard nostalgia, a typewriter App,
mind that modern knowledge gap,
discord, discourse, modern day omens.

Omen of Love

One day it won't weigh
the idea of
lack of love...
Because one day
 you will attain the blessings
of love... then you will be
so content you'll forget
any unpleasantness... !


It Is Not For Brave Man To Believe In Bad Omen

It is not for brave man to believe in bad omen,
But one bad omen, for sure exist :-
"if you are being driven at night from your home,
In trunk of a car with  tied legs and wrists."

Omen

Oath of the unseen one
Order of time and place
Only a piercing ray
Of hope, truth and downfall 
Ordeal of the dark
Often a warning sign
Out from what is beyond

Mocking Birds Omen of Doom

Sam Adams
A lonely old man
Was walking in the hills
Near his house,
Encountering mocking birds,
Mocking him, chasing him.
He ran down the path fleeing,
Hearing omens of his pending doom

Fall Omen

Twinkling,
when even the day
is shrinking,
and the sun declines
in the fold of the mountains,
belches out quietly
the fall flame from
the cornfield,
where the raven
is only
the fingers of a plough.

Custer's Omen

Wolverine shadows
 in the Michigan mist
Blood trail encampment
 on yesterday’s tryst

Teeth at the ready
 fortune can’t hide
Death for a tribute
— when vengeance abides

Premium Member Nightmare Omen

Diaphoresis woke up in the
Middle of the night the young man
Who dreared to lose his beloved 
Coveting to drench his
Desire thirst when the 
Diamond ring
Was found with
A black
Rose

Swarms of them form now—
An evil portent for sure!
Shades of illusion . . . 
	An evil that’s palpable . . . 
Now’s your last chance to escape!

Omen of Death

darkness again stink of ferments
deserted bottles lonely chairs warm
delirious of the deedings before
dejected flowers plastic unattended
black dog crosses the path
omen of death

Premium Member Nature's Omen

An ominous revelation  
that causes cosmic causation,
reveals nature's Delphic intent
of foretelling a looming event

with not philosophical tools
or words of sophistical fools--
but by a show of its power
from a dazzling meteor shower!

Omen

OMEN
O’er wintry land bare trees now sway
On wing above, black birds traverse
Occluded skies of baleful grey
Outspreading wings impart a curse 
Omen of darkest consequence
Outcomes perceived by prescient sense
Oppress the spirit, damn the day

Premium Member The Omen

The strange behavior of a Vatican squirrel
with his teeth all in a whorl
caused a commotion and created a clatter,
as the demon beast grew fatter,
making me shiver and flinch;
but I wouldn't give an inch.
His smile was the color of pearl
as he announced a brand-new girl.

Premium Member Good Omen From Monsoon

Comes  monsoon  in  its crystal tassels,

Drizzling on my stain-glass window

Effervescent as  nimbus'  Marian beads

Floating  within my liquid stream of  prayer,

To heal this soul    from godly intercession.

Omen

Remorse
regrets
escape
return,
his head in his hands.
Neon lights,
it’s like it’s protecting
itself or something,
you have this look 
like you're keeping 
a secret or something.
Shade, 
what haunts a man's mind 
in the night 
is what rules him.
Give a man freedom of choice 
and you give him temptation.

Omen

They started out
     On a day
That really seemed
     Just fine
And they were
     Deep in love
And married on
     That day
When the church
     They did leave
And they heard
     The news
Then did they
     Begin to fear
An omen
     It might be
How could it
     Ever begin
On the day
     That Karen died

Premium Member The Omen

Glass currents shimmer past the moonlit veil 
Lost figures glimmer through a drifting trail 
Silent lanterns hover over the deep 
Aged memories cover what shadows keep 

Neon whispers rattle in restless air 
Walled patterns tattle secrets without care 
Midnight pulse trembles under a cracked sky 
Restless vision assembles truths we deny

Premium Member When the Fire Horse Rises

When the Fire Horse rises, it climbs the empty ridge; clouds step aside, mountains dare not breathe, seasons lose their order, shadow runs ahead of time, men dare not speak— the omen enters the record, and Heaven sounds the bell. The Horse walks between, yet all paths begin where the endless river flows eastward toward the Mountain where Heaven begins again.

Premium Member HALLOWEEN

Hallow’s Eve, when spirits return 
And on Styx’s shores, a darkness churns
Lost souls vanish to the veil
Lamenting cries rise up from Hell
Omen hangs high in Stygian sky
Where witches watch with a wicked eye
Eldritch winds whisper a woeful tale
Echoes of death ride on the gale
Night-creatures creep with dreadful bale

Omen of Ruin

cold desolate abandon uninhabited snowing
      rain slippery icicles spike frostbite 
first month of year pillars of ice blind black

      black ice bad month first of the year
january gray shade screen canopy 
      frolicking jamming January boy birthdate omen of ruin
