In Prayer Will Plead

In Prayer Will Plead

In prayer to God will always plead,
Meet my requirements and do need;
Never boast;
Enjoy coast;
Help me to overcome all my greed.

Decisions of Requirements

laid before me
is the hypocrisy
of society.
the atrocities
of the bushoise
and the aristocracy.
who shun their responsibilities
and speak heresy
to those that live in poverty.

Peace At Last

In life I slept
      worried,
      installment due ...
      mortgages...
      In death, sepulchral sleep ...
       no requirements
       sans scares,
     without collectors `
      at the door...!

A Simple Promise

You may ask anything in my name, 
And I will do it.

A quote from Jesus recorded in the bible:
	No requirements. 
	No qualifiers. 
	No restrictions given.
	No request forbidden.

A simple promise.

Too bad it seldom works.

Can I really write a Pleiades?
Oh, I think I’ll try and have a go
Now, where to start, ensuring that I
Try to meet requirements of this style.
Every word I write must make some sense
So, whoever reads these words, will smile
Thinking I have made it to the end.

Icarus and the Sun

Every day and night
I sit within my tower.
The sun scorching with all its might
Waiting to melt me and drag me lower.

The dream to escape my confinement
Avoiding the Sun’s wrath to make me trip.
I still have to fulfil the requirements
To break free of the haters’ grip.

Women

Women are costly commodity.. 

So costly to the common man.. 

But Affordable to the Affluent.. 

Women are currently moved by currency..

They trade themselves for the currency..

To cure their current state of lack and high taste ...

And deem you surplus to requirements when you're sleazy..

Jumping Over Hoops

Reading contest requirements
which make me jump over hoops,
shakes my head until it droops,
discourages me from submitting ,
rather than writing I end up spitting,
it is a game of utter frustration
as my psyche goes through deflation,
and my muse hits a ten-foot tall brick wall,
screaming all the way because of the fall.

EXERCISE

His second wife
walked four to five miles
per day, every day and
recorded the distances each
day on her personal fitness
monitor!

His first wife
had worked equally hard
every day, vigorously walking
back the previous day’s comments
before preparing very carefully for
the exhaustive requirements of
the next day’s workout!

Tis a Formulation

To formulate an idea
To regulate your behaviors to accommodate
another's ideas
..opinions....emotions...hungers...needs

is harder than one would theoretically imagine
when and while writing the fairytale novel 
of one's own beating repeating pulsing craving ravenous immortal timeless spaceless supernatural

How Men Do Online Dating

You have your own apartment? So far, good.
You also own a yacht? That’s so much better!
No children and no ‘ex’s – understood?
Just follow my requirements to the letter.

You’re free of all encumbrances, like pets:
you mentioned stocks and shares in that last note:
this match-up looks as good as first-love gets:
so send a recent photo – of the boat.

as an orator fall 
relapse when ijzende absolution with a maturity of understanding how does the 
armor of the gods 
the songs of the trust wishes clears up 
and clearance requirements of enchantment 
you taste the thorn of our grief mediation 
hit like a dream of innocents

We were pushing our luck
Thinking we could make Adelaide
The wind was hard abeam
Making a full hellish scream
New course need be struck
Fast decision must be made
For my ship the SeaMaid
Hard to port doth seem
The right thing now struck
Luck, make Adelaide hard abeam

Follow Me

FOLLOW ME
By Frank Daub

I am sensing my dimensions.
That I have them, I am aware.
The challenge is in knowing.
The tragedy is to care.

Dimensions, definitions
	limitations -- all.
The work is not to choose,
But prevent an entrapping wall.

Requirements? Only natural.
Before ending, to make a choice.
“Follow Me”, a haunting message
Follow Me – an eternal voice.

Running With Scissors

The dangers of health and safety 
Cannot possibly be overstated
Because yesterday I tripped over 
A pile of paper H&S related 

It's a minefield of regulation
I've bought a tsunami plan 
And six fire extinguishers 
For a one-man-business band 

The ludicrous requirements 
Are completely over the top... 
Soon I'll have to wear safety goggles 
When I vac the floor and mop

Flash Flood

a storm is brewing
dark hordes bristling to descend
dissenting thunder

coalescent scouts
in tentative teams essay
sun-parched earth awaits

sizzle of drizzle
pheremonal petrichor
harbingers of hope

cool breeze in the air
their work done, drops sponged, expunged
the deluge follows

Premium Member ingenue

I'm not an 'ingénue' anymore - that’s been vitiated.
I'm not innocent, pure, naive or vulnerable -
which are technically, 'ingénue' requirements
(I don’t make the rules).

That being said, if no one has an objection,
in terms of narrative trajectory, I'd like to be
considered a 'fémme fatale' until further notice.

Premium Member Welsh Cat In the Hat

At times, I'd just like to slap that Seuss; hendecasyllabic seems obtuse. But Gwawdodyn's no use: three nines, a ten, and internal rhymes to be set loose.
---- There! Now I can say I've tried a Gwawdodyn: a Welsh quatrain with an aaxa rhyme scheme, specific syllable counts (9/9/10/9), and internal rhyme requirements on line 3. Onward! 1-xxxxxxxxa 2-xxxxxxxxa 3-xxxxbxxxxb 4-xxxxxxxxa

Remnants of Time,

Remnants of time, 
   survive in faded picture albums 
   dusted through the years.
Moments long forgotten 
   between the requirements of life
   by the struggling of living and dying.
Bonded not by blood 
   but love 
   the  lifestyle of acceptance as we were and are;
in our declining years nothing left to measure or count
   as the only thing recalled
   is the joy, the laughter and the tears
in the remnants of time.
