Premium Member Smoking

A lit cigarette 
provokes beginning of thoughts 
rising emotions 

burning sensation 
relieves all worries and doubt 
the rest up in smoke

Concealed Fear

Of late,
I've been fearing
The slight sound of vechiles
It provokes the goosebumps in me
The reasons deeply sealed
I'd, when revealed,
Be doomed!
Form: Verse

Premium Member Writer

Eloquent phraseology provokes the writer:
by the constant praise
and the persistent ways
of the writers gaze
as the job gets no raise

Premium Member Provoking Reaction

A word that lately gets little traction
     though when used provokes quite a reaction

   I find it singularly persuasive ~ 
     to describe the world today as 'invasive'

Frozen Memory

The breathtaking view of soft falling crystals, 
glimmering when caught in the morning rays,
provokes bitter-sweet nostalgia- though I know,
we are in the time of now, they will forever linger.

Poetry

Poems speak, sing, murmur, rant; always from the heart,
Poetry provokes, relates, commands; it's art.
It doesn't require theory, strategy or too much time,
Just ink thoughts on the paper and scribble words that rhyme.

Ubiquitous sugars

Ultimately affects

Underlying gene cells

Unevolved mutations 

Urgent in researching 

Ultimatum provokes

Premium Member -Smug

Smugness in human behaviour
Is such an unappealing trait
A smug word ,a smug smile
Only provokes hate

If a smug superior attitude 
Is all you offer and deliver
Zip your mouth and lock it
And throw the key in the river!!

defiant
     disdain
haughty
    self-reliance
envelops,
   then
     devours..
the proud:
taunts
provokes
    distrust,
if
never
unlearnt
becomes
    marooned
on
   an
     island
       of
           one..
..alone

Premium Member Spaseebo

there is no peace 
when man fears the eyes of mann
when faint follies and karma
provokes silent sullen protest
mounted by cruelty
and thee essence of the raw mann
destine to rule over a people
in the meantime
written by Mrs. Yolanda Joy Nicholsen

Solitude Saturates

Angst acutely augmented all crowding
Aligned to semisubmersible state
Safely seeking solitary succour
Propitious perfect proposal provokes
Reckoned rated Racoon River Retreat
Lay luxuriating lodge location
So surrounded, solitude saturates

Trajectory

Pristine blank page,
please rouse most sage
to open wide,
no time to hide
the applesauce
dabbled across
my graying chin.
Endings begin

to manifest
beyond our quest
as consequence
provokes events
in frantic spin
to obscure sin:
a grounded arc
within the dark.

Quiet Tea

Can't  stand the word society
Provokes immediate anxiety
Same thing with psychiatry
It's the opposite of variety
It infuriates me justifiably
Makes me act defiantly
Almost all wrong entirely
I rebel against compliancy
Then I'll sit and have a quiet tea

Speculation

The premise of your argument,
    Provokes blind faith, to disagree.
    Yet the answer to those questions
    What's true they cannot see.
    Those so called miracles divine,
    Could nature by perchance bestow,
    All wonders that confound belief,
    Mankind will never know.

Premium Member September

September’s serendipitous serenade
Evokes the ebullience of ecstasy 
Provokes a prancing promenade
Tingeing the torrid leaf tips
Exacting an elemental excitements
Monumental majesty
Blue-black horizons blending
Exotically enigmatic exigencies
Ruby reds rollicking in the Rockies

Premium Member Go With the Flow

The last emperor, February chill, 
Provokes nostalgic lust for summer heat -
My cool companion, Snowman, bittersweet - 
I'll melt in hot embrace, he never will.

One vibrant life with season rapid flow, 
No time for a preparatory draft, 
Recapture every brush of nature's craft - 
And frolic in the sun and in the snow.

Premium Member Moon Is a Verse of Love

In the world, two gizmos are welded. An unreversible truth, same as a soul in a body Love and poetry that cheers and arrays. Raining longings with promise, not averring. Nothing provokes poetry like passion; Nothing replenishes him like warmth. And a full moon is a verse for love.

Premium Member Nature's Embrace

magnetic fascination
Kin to emancipation
Relished procrastination
Through the maternal
A connection internal
Stirs emotions supernal
Nature is unparalleled
Provokes intoxication 
Perpetually enchanting 
As if we feel deeply compelled
As if under a spell
To exalt admiration 
As like the constellation
Essence of nature
Embodiment of its maker

The Redhead Down the Hall- Collaboration

Magnetic fascination
Provokes intoxication
As I feel deeply compelled
To exalt admiration
From the Redhead 
Who lives down the hall

I feel deeply compelled
To be dreaming
Of the redhead 
With the creamy white skin
And intoxicating green eyes
Who lives down the hall

Premium Member Poison Pen - a Lie For a Lie, and a Truth For a Truth

The pen is tidier than the cord.	
A garrote provokes an unsettling gurgle
That reverberates in the midnight hour
When one is trying to pursue a guiltless sleep.

The pen, however, resonates
With an uncanny mystic harmony
That allows the comforting lullaby
Of literary reprisal to carry out the hit.

Character assassination: a cowardly villain’s vengeance.

Premium Member At a Glance

AT A GLANCE
Eye to eye,the look 
provokes a sigh,a
look that needs no words,
a short story perchance.
Speaking volumes in the
golden silence.One mind
interprets the other,in this
exchange,speaking aloud,
without ambiguity.A look 
can kill,attract invite,dismiss
destroy what once was or
might have been or may
yet, still ,a, novel become.

Only I

There is a spell
This magic is a voice
This voice is startling
It provokes
US into the shape of heavenly beings
Choosing life
Rather than non-existent rules

I'll fight you till you subdue
I'll speak wondrous tales in your ear
Submitting you to be restless
Confused

I'll be your darkness, light
Only I can sate this plight
Me alone shall condemn your days
