Fear

How perverse is this?
Missing that fear,
That shocked
That tasered 
That petrified
My limbs
My teacher standing with his cane


Premium Member MISSPELLED UNHEARD-

The lips that speak
Those perverse words
Are often misspelled
Mostly unheard.

The Call

The dirtier the world,
—the cleaner the verse

The need much greater,
—when the call most perverse

Conductor Of Ancient Hymns

Partakes in, not he, this perverse
An unnatural abhorrence 
For the true, the good, the grandly fair.
Feigns, from this time's place absence!

Into the mouth
Out of the drought
None the worse
And none defiled
Out of the heart
With body parts
Come acts perverse
And all that's vile

Diverse and Worse

Diverse and Worse

Group they did start out in was diverse;
While they would end up being worse;
Various views;
Bad news;
No longer appealing and are perverse.

Untunneled Vision

We were once the eye of the universe,
And thinking otherwise was just perverse.
Many times in the past, wrong we have been,
And history proves we shall be again...

The Curse

Climate:
No doubt changing for the worse: 
Our children and our heirs 
Will name us as the Curse.
Even in our lifetime....
We are an age perverse !
Condemn us for our Crime.

Premium Member Tricks

Ladies sell them
Men con them
Some poets pretend
To have the cards
Of poetic verse

Now really
Is that not perverse?
Even clowns know
How to juggle a few words
Of insane verse!

Kindling the Fire

You can’t think your way
into a poem
Or feel your way
out of a verse

They first must conspire…
your spirit inspired
Words no longer forced
—or perverse

Language

Users of language evolved to converse. That way we learn who is good or perverse. We share information with social elation, just as I do with this ‘limericky' verse.

Dark Spell, Bright Mirror's

Dark spell, bright mirror's.
Dear, be careful!
Its deceiving look
Perverse and adverse
Shocks, sorrowful.

Employ me instead
To enlighten
You about beauty.
At least that aspect
Holds deeper men!

          feeling, caring, praising

The Tiny Humble

A tiny spark
Inspiration
A small thought, a word, leading to greatness

A tiny spark
Moment of blindness
An entire forest set on fire

The soothing tongue is a tree of life
But a perverse tongue crushes the spirit
Proverbs 15:4

Words and Thoughts

What's heard for a word's echo
And soundless, thought-vibrate
Way up into this starred night
Will they now dissipate?

If its true all that's done here
Transforms the universe
For good or ill retract, I
All such; adverse, perverse!

A Version of Haunting

Somebody else's ghost
takes her away 
makes her mumble him, although
I think she wants me to hear.

Those are dark
moments when she puts
the mask of memory
over her eyes.

He takes her away.
I watch, an audience 
for a dance, a perverse
romance.

Life's Angles

Absurdity undisputedly does ambush our quest for jollity
But so,too,do glamour and the euphoria that attend our world
Clashes with a world that spurns to surrender meaning
Dating the perverse option may curtail,yet
Every cloud has a silver lining.

Premium Member Light Up My Faith--

O' Light up my faith; For everything seems just cool as can be; Alas! as somewhat perverse to be smelt with, the hate; I shall fathom the embolisms as it feeds The loathsome axe will cut down doubts and demon tree

At My Cost

Ways are multifarious 
Let me choose
Light is seen dark
Without booze

Gift of God is
Felt as curse
Upside down head
Beautiful verse

Foolish  am stubborn
Stubborn so fool 
My hate invites me
Wisdom is misrule

God is angry
So am is lost
Perverse is prize
At my cost
