Always Appears Atrocious

Always Appears Atrocious

Trump was placating yet being precocious;
Way he fixes hair then tie are ferocious;
Hair plastered down,
And in a night gown;
No wonder he Always Appears Atrocious.

Wolf and Lamb

Wolf
                  Ravenous, Vicious
           Hunting, Preying, Devouring 
Edacity, Rapaciousness, Greediness, Hungriness
          Appeasing, Mollifying, Placating
                     Meek, Gentle
                          Lamb

The Tale of Us

Awaiting tomorrow, so patiently still
Placating anxiety built up inside
Debating what outfit I need to prepare
Berating my fears as I push them aside
 
Perfecting my hair as I walk in the door
Expecting attraction, but something's askew
Reflecting on why the romance disappeared
Respecting our mutual friendship anew

Abandoned To Alcohol

burning arrows from my heart bottles empty placating dart lies concealed in hidden secret diamonds write in veiled leaflet hide from view all engraved words bury burdens with blurred absurd fill the sky with countless stars appointed bars to hide the scars float your bottles out to sea as alcohol sets solitude free © Kim van Breda—March 2014

Not a way I'd want to wonder
Strange bursts flow through
Down and out the score evens
Unknown are the conflicts inside
Blister of the heart grows continuous
Snakes bite the unwary traveler
Growing double by unhitched soul
Placating another heart skyward
Peace runs a taught ship, softly
Earning respect to divine power
Every deity's dream to scrape mankind
Off their shoes of burning hell

Russell Sivey


Still Awaiting

I am here now,
Still awaiting…
Every moment,
Hope abating…

Are you there, love?
Still debating?
Yet, I hold on,
Still awaiting…

Any day now,
Still awaiting…
Heart is yearning,
Palpating…

Do you yearn too?
What’s frustrating?
Never mind I’m,
Still awaiting…

Losing patience,
Still awaiting…
Where are Cupids’
Arrows baiting?

Hurry darling,
No placating!
For too soon I,
Won’t be waiting…

Lost Verses

More honor 
in shame
than ever
 false glory

The larceny
of time
cleft moments
abscond

Passion 
 untitled
prescience
but memory

Pandering
fantasies
prevaricate
long

Lost verses
of blood
all pain
in their letting

Remembrance
a shadow
of days
underserved

Redemption
a silence
that screams
in our absence

Placating 
our fear
when the Sirens
— are heard

Premium Member Business Negotiations

we feel the one single life force flowing though each and every form feeling their fearful desires coarse placating souls with embrace warm with whom should we negotiate being no longer the doer no agenda we wish to state erst desires transformed to vapour thus we put the other at ease of their fear tremors cognisant hoping for their tension release with thread of truth in agreement 05-July-2021

Sorry Just Words!!!!!!

I'm sorry, is phrase so used today,
In this society. 
These words would mean a lot, 
more if the actions followed.
Anyone can say them.
Just depending on if they send the 
Feelings to follow the words true meaning.
When they are said, 
it should be from the mind, heart and soul.
Not just by a simple breath,
To fall on most ears that are deaf 
Or even to be said, 
To get control of a person.
Sooner or later,
It is all the same,
As placating and complicating a simple situation.
