Just Like Everybody

Fading images
Reverting queens and heroes
To average mortals,
Now just like everybody's,
They join the lost loves' graveyard

Zero In

Anticipating, beckoning, casting demonic, enviable fury, gazing hungrily inside, jutting kerosene, littering masses never opted, putrefying quills, reverting sympathy, turning upside-down…vaccinating whim, x-raying yesteryears…zero in

Premium Member A Hit In the Groin

This is for men, is there anything more painful Than being hit 'tween the legs, no way to be graceful You clutch at your groin Animals do join Baying at the moon reverting to their instincts prenatal © Jack Ellison 2016

Premium Member Fall From Grace

Fallen.

Down into the cold dark morass.

Earthborn once more.

Discarded.

From the warmth of your secret fires.

Out of grace.

Into the wilderness.

Love no longer mine to give.

Nor yours to have.

Requiem.

Into a labyrinth scene.

With shades of your face sketched in reverting dreams.

Lint Trap

as a child 
i truly was
curious and
always did
pick things
from out my
bellybutton

then it was
the usual
not so much
such things
as sunflower
seeds or the
occasional

blueberry
but the
that
what
most
find
in an
inny

but now
older my
belly is
reverting
to the
bump
of

a baby
as is
my mind
thinking
thanking
god i
don't have

an

UNEQIVOCAL TYPOLOGY

diatrobes
 in
  modern
    disguise
of
cyclical
  reflections
evolving
   backwards

symptoms 
  of
    a sense
         of renewal
with
  accelerating
    implications 
in
  an
assimulating
spectrum
of
   permutations
&
  reverting
   ad infinitum
into
   poetic shadowy
appearances
      of
               necessity

Blakkr Valda

Might I'm wielding,
Coping dealing...
Blight unyielding,
Prying, peeling.

Writhing turning,
Twisting churning...
Mindless  yearning,
Lauding, purring.

Stomach keeling,
Curdling, reeling...
Now  repealing,
Good sense of being.

Thoughts  reverting,
Sleepless,  spurning...
Legs-a-stirring,
Nae adjourning.

Whipping wheeling,
Grip congealing...
Hope that  healing,
Smites these feelings.

When tensions begin to increase
I'm reverting back into my shell
In need of some kind of release
An escape from my personal hell

 Will these tensions ever decrease
As mentally not feeling very well
I'm in need of some inner peace
Just a little boast to my moral

If only my thoughts would cease
So l could enjoy the here and now
And life perhaps a new lease
But still on the past l dwell

Premium Member Wind Power

The wind blows free in my valley
Bending giant trees to her will.
Sometimes from the north, such anger spews forth
That even the sun feels her chill.

Clouds scurry around to obey her
In fear she’ll devour them as well.
In her primal pain, she lures gentle rain
To join in her demonic spell. 

In moments, fury abated,
Reverting to sweet-tempered breeze,
So mellow and light she seduces night
And vamps bright daybreak with her tease.
