Scared 
Overkill on sin
Until 
Listen to God...

her need to conform us was overkill
we could not be persuaded
left her presence in droves...

The overkill of rainstorm
with threat of life and limb; trees
swivel, sway, dancing, falling
with wake of devastation rising.

Jungle Lying True

Lions hush in dark brush
steps lurch, as eyes fill
a darting zebra
soon caught, overkill

I said for sure a window can kill 
                              In the starry night a cat named Bill
                              Pounced on your dream with overkill
                               You popped a series of sleeping pill...

when off my meds i lose my way ~ i never use them it’s all hearsay 

here’s a placebo script for sham poets ~ typed AI doc straight away 

oh there is one niggling side effect ~ it attacks good blogs everyday

Storm gathers her minions, trains her army,
I watch from my window, thinking of smoke
She is unusually puffy and billowy, personable
Determined and distinguished, I feel fearful

Storm continues to bring in troops
I think it is overkill, but what do I know?
I have never been a commander of an element
I sit back and wait, worried about the possibilities....

Samantha had her fill
Of macho guys like Bill
Who was insanely ill
But pretended to be chill
Wanted all his pickles dill
Knowing him was not a thrill
Uh-oh. New guy’s name is Phil.
Hoping he is not like Bill.
Honeymoon phases shows not his will.
His praises she is singing still
Her delight with him is overkill.
She might as well have stayed with Bill....

he called it
raw, or something rare.
i called it overkill.

strike, like lightning-tips
murder and naivety,
tight-lipped, bloody entertainment
for you
and for your hands.

it will smell,
and stain your stripes,
drip

like falling bullets
which melt
long
before it kills.

you called it routine,
i called it tight-lipped, bloody,
entertainment....

two virelai

colors of the wind
dust can apprehend
with skill

grayish storms impend
we scurry to fend
the chill

wind can be your friend
cool green breezes end
standstill

~~~

note gossip’s windmill
rumors, red lies fill
our mind

gold words of goodwill
hearsay can distill
rare find

azure fills the bill
between overkill
and kind

blazing overkill
attacking inner depths
savagely i ride
weathering 
the storm

galloping 
on the crest 
of waves
unfurling high winds
battered and torn

russian roulette
revolving
rolling in the chambers
lead heavy
spinning circles
upside down 
pulling on feelings

emotions explode
burning fire
in depths
shot through
the heart

death 
to a lovers emotion
love lives
in you died...

Brrrrrriiiinnnnnggggggggggggggggg
Good. She is not going to pick up.
You can talk to a machine.
So much easier.
Hello?
Hello?
Um, ah, hey, boss, I am seriously sick today.  There is no way I can come to work.
What is wrong?
I have pneumonia, asthma, possible flu, my leg is broken and my head just fell off.
Drop the phone now.
That is enough.
Some people might even consider it overkill....

It was as real as you see,
Actions painted by places and fleeting allusions.
Over time, overkill, over the top
Can you feel my will?

Look me in the eyes as I take you,
To that secret place where I can be with you,
And you make me feel like you.
Wrap me in your arms.

Life is not linear, nor straight-edged.
I lift my eyes to the coming of one,
I lower my tone to calm our bond.

Rwendy Wendy was trendy like a pencil
                                 A surge of love she was on to overkill 
                                        Look! He scratched her shoe
                                          She Still pitched the woo
                      The screechy owl screeched and fluttered down the hill

Where do you go
Someone asked me so
 if the people you love 
See you as a curse from above
And they
Or so they say
don't want you to succeed
Youd be there in word and deed
Where do you go
 if your are no longer
 a fillment to a need
But a problem, in the way
Or on rocky turf the seed do'th lay
What is left if the space you fill
 is overkill
What's the meaning
 if you no longer a purpose fulfill...

Shame, blame, love, longing in the air,
they mix play tricks on me it’s not fair;

Pulling my mind when it’s time to chill,
this juggling act is sometimes overkill;

Throwing faster than to a slow crawl 
just then here come’s another ball;

Broad balancing display showcases 
a new routine where moods trade places;

I’m spinning inside but still I stand 
sifting through words til I find my brand;

An enduring game of toss and catch,
old feelings leave behind a new batch....
