Reducing a book
down to one chapter

Reducing that chapter
to a paragraph honed

Reducing that paragraph
to one lasting sentence

Reducing that sentence
 to a word
— truth atoned

We

Thusly
A thought
The first letter
A sentence ensues
The paragraph develops
A chapter has been inscribed
The new story can be ascertained
A position on the bookshelf is reserved
The copywriter will never be discouraged

Relationship To the Deceased

What's your relationship to the Deceased

Why I am also dead as well

Someone wrote an essay on me

Well I say essay more like a paragraph

And when I say paragraph I mean sentence

Which in reality was no more than a

?

Actually

Paragraph From the Past

Sickness is the devil himself divining his ill will.
It seems his only interest is to see what he can kill.
The evil deep inside us all, he uses as a tool.
And sneaks around just like a snake awaiting his next fool.

One paragraph unto itself.
Now on display on Poetry Soup's shelf.

Past That Place

If words were notes upon a score
would the melody play beyond …

Each phrase a chord, each line a hymn
each paragraph a song

If words could sing harmonic
as their letters drift away

Would music take you past that place
— verse forces you to stay

Sentence Me To Death

Not another letter,
not another breath.
Not another paragraph,
to sentence me to death.
Not another chapter written,
I'm running out of rhyme.
Of all the pages I have filled,
have stolen from me time.
Not another paragraph,
not another breath,
Not another letter,
to sentence me to death.

:half:

The other half of me 
Explains what others see
But only few know that half 

That I choke and bleed between every laugh 
That there's a king behind the gaffe  
That there’s pain in every paragraph 

And those who know 
Don't know where I'll go 

But at least they will be at my gravestone

Becoming Older

Concentration would appear
to gain me nothing.
I read a paragraph,
close my eyes and open them,
then read one more,
yet nothing still is gained.
Do I hold no interest in what
each paragraph holds?
Each page? Each hour? Each day?
What is gained in age?
And does age hold me nought?

There Is a Poem Inside of Me

There is a poem inside of me
It’s trying to get out
I do not know how long it is
Or what it is about
Swirling thoughts inside my head
Words to make you laugh
Witty, wild, wavy words
To form a paragraph
Words that tell a story 
Of something you might do
Betcha if you look inside
You’ll find a poem in you!

A Smile Is Worth a Thousand Words

A smile is worth ten words, enough to write a sentence. 
A smile is worth a hundred words, enough to write a paragraph.
A smile is worth a
Thousand words, enough to write a story. 
A smile is worth a
million words, enough to write a novel. 
A smile is worth a infinite amount of words, enough to rewrite history.

Poetry

These words are just thoughts written on paper.
It's free to take it's own form. 
Follow it's own outline and format.
A composition of feelings, emotion, wisdom 
all in one paragraph, on e phrase.
A personal and deep reflection of yourself, 
your surrounding, your dreams, your dispair.
A glance at your mind written on paper.

Premium Member Building Word Sentences and Poems

e……..em……..emu……emulate……emulation
building words is quite the celebration
constructing sentences is a kick too
conjunctions acting as the well-toned glue

prepositions running up and down
paragraph sneering with a clown’s young frown
my muse tears down rules and jumps over walls
ideas are pinging in my head now like ping pong balls

Darkness

I’m all alone in a pit of darkness.
Nothing can save me anymore.
I’ve lost all my hope.
And love always seems to fail with me.
No-one seemed to care about anything to do with me.
No-one believed I would do this.
They thought it was just jokes.
Well I guess I have proved them wrong.
And with this short, little paragraph, I must leave.

Premium Member In Burlap Did He Laugh: Hexsonnetta

In burlap did he laugh,
the huskiness of mirth
to occupy the dearth
of sound. A photograph
beside the paragraph;
her testament of worth.

In satin does she weep,
cold buttons in her lap.
The invocations tap
an estuary deep.
Like flutterings in sleep
they flood the aching gap.

She penned his epitaph:
In Burlap Did He Laugh.

A Promise To My Mother

You required from us no elegy
So I promise in this paragraph
My poems become your epitaph
From all the years of reading youve done
Ive become your writing son
And today  I am almost old
I will write it into solid gold
Your blood is the fluid in my inky pen
The spirit of the ages
I will spill on these pages
Until one day I will see you again

Premium Member Secrets of the Universe

Cosmos hides her secrets in whispers
Communicating bits on wings of faeries
Dusted flowers aid in the subterfuge
Lilacs enjoying starlight, leaning in to hear
Violets peeking at mossy ferns who hold answers
Each particle coveting the bits that were entrusted to them
No one having a complete paragraph or even a sentence
Until they agree to collaborate in universal agreement

Premium Member mood celebratory

celebrating ignorance as an offering enabling us to experience suffering an orientation as such exits trance recognising life as a divine dance spontaneity does not paragraph so soul laughs at its own gaffe and with no earthy goals to chase bilocates between earth and space enjoying bliss even whilst hemmed in at all times feeling bliss ignition within

You Don'T Know My Poetry

Written in blood yet sheds no red
As pen caresses my mighty seed
The shadows hurled the whispers of the dark
As pleasure slithers in the moon of light.
And then decoded in the movement of your lips
You realize all of a sudden this is no paragraph
But fragments of innumerable plights
Moistened with the desire
Of some men.
Now, indelible.
