Hungry Hunter

Reticent Hunter

a reticent hunter: Croc
sails, stalks, explodes out o' water
and catches its prey.

soft hazy full moon
flirts with the reticent sun
the lustful rays leave
the pale pearl of night ascends
kissing the darkening pines

was known to be reticent
but he decided to make the world bright
so he told them about his kitchen light

her coronation
orange sherbet
baby blue
now rich magenta
pointing the way...
a reticent orb
abruptly
beams

The reserved, reticent, and silent she
Was demure and thoughtful as she could be
Soft as a feather
In all kinds of weather
Manic crazy after landing thee.

Old Profession

There once was a lass from the Bower
Whose fame got her paid by the hour
'Till one Knightly gent
Forgot reticent
And now she's the one with the power.

Charismatic Ocean

The thunderous waves,
It’s dimensions infinite,
Clandestine Ocean!

How magnificent,
Formidable, perplexing
Yet how reticent!

Enigmatic forms,
Augmenting the dusk and dawn,
Divine creation!

Radical ridiculants risk rash
ride-a-long rational resultants,
residing reluctantly, revealing
resounding, resourceful, recurrent,
reticent, resonate romances. Replies

Angel's Passion

To hearken its tune signifies an enduring passion Its melodious beat reminds one of angel's vent And with the thought of being a perfervid one albeit a reticent

Premium Member Safe In the Realm of Desire

So vulnerable she seems
How you would love to love her
And that spooks you to no end
Sheepish scared and reticent
Knowing what can’t be undone
Hiding behind desire’s realm
Odds hardly in your favor

The Circumvention

Melancholic drivel, gravitating stammer
Mosaic affinity, reticent clammer

Gushing droplets and whimpered dawn
Hindering clarity, vanquished, withdrawn

Trembling masquerade, deserted palm
A cleaved cradle, posing qualm

Seeping sorrow, hoping consider
Bequeathing dainty, wishing deliver.

Premium Member Unsung Heroes

lark spreads wings at dawn

sun folds reticent clouds –

shrike strikes in pursuit


foxglove spreads soft seeds

hedge shelters nature’s will –

dusk bears fear of growth


stars shine midnight oil

comets applaud rise and fall

night rings in silence

Reaching Through the Rubble

A man 
tensely
tied to a
tired tempered tower.
With his mind
like a reticent
rutted rat 
scurrying off 
to cower
within the 
crooked cryptic 
corners of 
reality.

But whose
heart is the 
only hand
reaching out
of the rubble.
Still hanging
onto a 
half hushed
howl of hope.

Surreptitious Breaths

Silken linens scented of 

  last night's rendezvous,

     still wafting midst

         reticent moments, 

cognac and aromatic

   candlelight burning 'neath

      surreptitious breaths, 

  as we unfurled

     sultry seduction's poetry 

              'tween clandestine shadows

Premium Member Eyes Lit On Fire Twilight Tribute

Misfit always out of step with the world,
Outsider longing to run forever;
Then into my reticent life you twirled; 
Proximity my only endeavor;
Eyes lit on fire and my appetite swirled,
there was no confusion whatsoever; 
The vampire in me kindled a sparkle,
Edward Cullen please make me immortal.

July

She's reticent but has a gold personality
her body is covered in white flowers
they bloom everytime my eyes look
finer-looking than all models
funnier than all comedians
smarter than all geniuses
her fearless, yet glossy eyes
stare at mine
I don't desire to wake up from this dream.
Goddess...
you are a dream!

Forgotten Time

Forgotten Time 

My mind conceals forgotten time...inside...
I wander through its mist of discontent. 
It's there from life and love, I often hide;
Though, lingering just leaves me reticent. 
Among these tangled webs, true love did stride;
But, finding it again, I seem denied.

No

No, such a simplistic word
Two letters, one syllable and one meaning
Yet you find great struggles in iterating said word.
You say its opposite constantly without reticent 
Without discrepancies or cloistered callousness.
For this, they expect yes and nothing more
For this, they take advantage of 'it'; of you. 

Say No.

Celestia's Renaissance

I kept turning these precognitive pages...
As one skipping about a reticent rendition; but
They continued coming up blank although knowing 
That I was just one drop of ink away; ten thousand terms 
Words in her horse drawn clandestine carriage; his poetic helots 
Hearse from some semantics recipient read through; `ex post facto.

Premium Member In the Bazaar

In the bazaar
Works and willful stacks of gold.
I grant thee one reticent 
Knod, just for show.

There is no real fauna
In our new world.order, 
We whet our fangs
And fight for the final time.

In glaciers cool but melting,
I greet the gods of Greenland mourning.
In glaciers hot and freezing
We leave the demons plotting.

Temporal Poem

tracing ethereal line
to find the future
in this time, present
let's not throw away the past
that passed, but is reticent...
In this game I'm
somewhat unconscious
somehow groping annoyed...
The future is cogitation
the now is insecure
because we see nothing different..
 Past, today
and tomorrow,
long story
without finally...

Isolation

Alone, Lone Wolf,
Reticent and aloof,
Abstract thoughts,
Introspection taught,
Introvert innate,
Not a lonely plate,
Fun book friends,
Delights never end,
A pleb, for what that's worth,
On lonely Planet Earth,
Jewel of the Universe,
Cosmos, one vast church,
Life is creation,
Have we found any aliens?
Reticent and aloof,
Alone, a Lone Wolf.
