Fallen I from the skies into a pit, I fell into a hole, I just laid there
12/28/20
Written words by James Edward Lee Sr
time spent in sweltering sun
is never any fun
The men work hard to dig a pit,
someone somewhere must do it-
just not me.
Bursting for a bathroom;
Tim Horton’s stop
~ closed for cleaning
For Susan Burch’s contest
“Show Me The Anger”
Won 2nd place
When you feelviolence and sex around you all
the time you must conclude
that although you cannot see them
you are in a pit of paedophiles.

at tree
stans sand
The churches are filling with dust
Alms boxes are turning to rust
Congregations are sad
Priests and preachers are mad
WEEKS pass without citing a bust!
The pendulum springs, the head is cluttered
The pendulum sings, the head is fluttered
The pendulum swings, the head is levered
The pendulum stings, the head is severed
Nature is precious but at a time like this
How was it before we were pushed off the cliff
Days before the world
Was suddenly hurled
Into this deep and dark bottomless pit
Eyes bubble as whispers slip through ether
Busy life sits on hold impatiently
Let it dammit
The loss of friends in shadow net
Is plucking heartstrings
Scraping nerves
Reality can wait
I need
Rib-eye steaks are on the pit
Seasoned with dad’s rub
Are you all ready to grub
Meat will fall off bone
One bite, it’ll be gone
Then drink Ice,
Tea!
he lies to the bank
to get yet another house. . .

(sadly a true story about people I know of)
For Tania Kitchin's Senryu About Greed, Lust Or Loss. Poetry Contest
I breathed in the scent of the sunsets,
Cherry pit war mines covering the street,
Rose colored petals dancing in the background,
The sun painting me pink,
Crickets symphony under the lights,
That Summer that never left me.

Sidewalk violin
playing its jagged song
splashing silver bits into a velvet pit
feeling blessed I'm heading for home.

You think you know me, but you ne'er will
These hells plunge leagues too deep to fill
Such horrors and frights are mine to earn
And warrant no flesh but this ... will burn.
When she comes, the greedy sea
Eating, biting, with a smile
Pretty careless and for free
Chunks and pieces for a mile
And the beach there helpless lies
While it crumbles bit by bit
As each precious portion dies
And falls in to the watery pit
Wendy Nipas
Hiding in their basement caves,
the ‘journalists’ deride
The light of facts and truth cast dim,
a downward fatal slide
Where once out in the open,
clear vision far and wide
Credibility buries deep
—their fear a den of lies
(The New Room: February, 2021)
A pit of molasses
devoured my glasses.
Coiled tendrils rose
to seize and dispose
of treasures unsighted
so minds are blighted
with flaming contusions
and twisted confusions.
Faces glowed scarlet
like strawberry tartlet
when things sailed
from pockets unveiled.
To not appease the critics,
success within our grasp
The charlatans of written words,
venom of the asp
They bury deep inside their dens,
ordained iconoclasts
Passing judgment, casting blame
—on what they fear might last
(To T.R.’s ‘Man In The Arena’ March, 2021)
She brushes her fingertips
down her own skin and dreams of him
rising like a tide inside her,
his tongue between her teeth.
She waits for the stars to fall ripe into her palms,
and for the messiah.
She waits, heart in mouth,
for his breath against her bones.
Pit of Deceit
There is a pit of deceit, full of lines you speak
And if I try to escape, you drag me back in.
With unbroken promises, at the present time;
But history shall repeat itself once more, as shall the fact you lie.

Love sinks low,singing-
A duet between drowning hearts.
Her smile is the last breath before the tar closes in.
I play my guitar till the strings blisters,
Till the bubbles stop breaking the surface.
Still,the Cheshire Cat keeps playing,
Because silence is the deepest pit of all.
Investing in securities
Involves the risk of loss.
But it pays to be bullish
Regardless of the cost.
You can’t beat the house
If you don’t take a chance.
The same rule applies
In the realm of romance.
It’s all fiduciary bull.
You’ll soon regret the cost.
Investing in relationships
Involves the risk of loss.
Heaven quakes as death draws near
As Halloween bring back its fright,
Lifting the veil where demons spawn
Lets Hell free to rape this night.
Occult terrors from the pit
Who wear the devil’s mark
Eagerly their victims seek
Enveloped by the dark.
No hope, nor faith, nor charity can stop this damned insanity!
Ivor G Davies
Oh shameful bottomless pit that is,
My life.
Take me to the ocean,
And drown me.
Eternal flame,
My sunrise and sunset,
Burning my flesh,
Burning.
The foul stench encases my nostrils,
As you and all your race of men,
Look upon me,
Laughing with disgusted upturned noses.
Not yet satisfied,
You impale me with a four foot spear.
The spring rain
Stirs my senses_my gain
Soft pit-a-patter music_wind chimes
Brings to my mind poems, lines, and rhymes
Saturated these times
By scents_sounds
The soft tender fig leaves release their scent in rounds
Air clean wisteria wafts as birds sings__heart bounds
(Trois Par Huit but not on the list..Will enter under rhyme.)
