Bloom inside rainforest realm
Rarely seen in reels....

The weather is great
And so is your mate,

Let's go down the Pin
And get those mackerel

So let those reels spin
Then pull in the brim

Cause life's never grim
With a four ex grin!...

'Tis the early morning hour
     my head aches and bangs like a bell tower,
     and my stomach churns and reels quite sour
that's what I get
     for indulging and imbibing in the Happy Hour....

What versus why,
each millennium cries

Man on the run,
all truth in disguise

Modernity reels
from an ancient ideal

Until time the thief
—reveals

And in the intermission of fading lights,
we play our parts,
knowing not how
reels and trailers of moments loved
are stilled when the ending freezes,
so we leave
to answer the applause of the crowd....

There's a grandma who just wears Just My Size
Her teenybopper cloths catches shock eyes
As she walks in sassy heels.
In hot pink spots wear she reels
She's so cute, whispers when she exercise.

Injected eyes,
Poached-egg lids,
Rosy cheeks,
While walking he reels.

Speech irrelevant,
Belly corpulent,
Handshake hot,
Language rot,

These will be the wages of sin,
For those who live on whisky and gin....

A  honeyed smile ~
in night’s dash
enchants

Giggling on tricks
     peek-a-boo!
     he reels

 My infant’s cheeks
    fresh  as moon ~
    I kiss

Written February 25, 2013


She carried her bones down the old dirt road
And buried herself down in Ohio
Between the reels and the stacks of the railroad tracks
How did we know she would never turn back
Now our heads hung low we're regretting that...

Grab your rhodes, your lines, your reels.
Grab your hooks, your swivels, your sinkers.
Grab your power bait, your worms, your stinkers.
Grab your tackle box, your cooler, your beer.
Pick a spot, cast your line, enjoy your friends, and have a good time....

Sanguine
Fine wine

Blind date
She's late

Bread sticks
He licks

Tick tock
Of clock

Waitress
Cute dress

High heels 
He reels

Chat up
He's cut

Hope dies
He sighs

Had fill
Pays bill

Went out
Heard shout

"No tip?
Tight git!"...

Nonchalant Rouge  
By Maui Sanders

Absence of affection
Is not a sore ditch
Film reels 
And family memories
Even though I may not 
Have one
In my mind, I am a warrior
Who is learning
How to be of an object
To people on a pursuit to
Win the trophy...

He turned his face up
to the moon,
the rain was on him
like a wound
in rivulets it ran
him down
in waves of pain
intent to drown,
the anguish of
the love he feels
the torrent takes
him and he reels
from all the heartache
and the pain....
and rain....

His eyes, oh his eyes
Consume the fabric of my life;
I try to swim
But he reels me in 
And I drown in those deep dark pools.
I fall willingly
Into the terrifying tenderness of love.
I am lost -
How could I have known
I would fall so deep?



First attempt doing free verse....

Just like the sea won't let the waves escape
but reels them back in again and again
to frothy, crested peaks,
so goes the man, who bitterness keeps.
A barreling undercurrent, tumultuous pull
which drags you back under, long-winded until
you don't know the sky from the water......

Thread of love,
in each vibrato,
whispers.
A melancholy,
that disperse,
the colors,
of hers.

String of love,
in each octave,
played.
A monochrome,
that displayed,
the hues,
of hers.

Knot of love,
in each tempo,
echoes.
A melody,
that reels,
the feels,
of hers....
