O snowdrop
When you flower,can Spring be far behind?

With rhetoric strong, he claims the fight
The second coming, a nation's right

a question that needs no answer this example after Shelley's 'Wind'
O mist
If Autumn comes can Winter be far behind?
A one-legged lad from Maverick
Spent years rehearsing his rhetoric
This aesthetic athletic
Proved profoundly poetic
His lyrical soup wins plethoric
restless rambunctious
ridiculous rhetoric
riddles repeatedly
rhyming resplendently
rock-'n-roll, really?
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
don't know whether to roar or purr....
O mist
If Autumn comes can Winter be far behind?
NOTE: Essentially a couplet as a question that needs no answer:
( this example of mine is after Shelley's 'Wind')
We ignored
that sound before, thunder
approaching, and paid a heavy price.
Never again! Empty
rhetoric?

Gardens grow with tender love
They die with the preachers rhetoric
Judge not by the bragging
See how one tends to others
A caress
Wins the flowers heart
Ask any butterfly
The Rhetoric Often
Seems To Direct You
To A Different Dream
Than A TRUE Future
Does.
Because,
Because IT Does.

Anything?

Some speak love for all,
And yet they only love one.
And if love is for all, then why do I see it only for one?
Is love only for all, until it is only for one?
Adversaries are none
When trepidation emerges
Rhetoric voices undone
Temper surges
Contrive modes of destruction
Follows continuous bashing
Unequivocal construction
Without talk trashing
Avoid becoming concrete.
Death encroaching
freezes great hearts.
Illuminate joy.
Kindle love.
Magnify!
Never orally
practice quaint
rhetoric. Speak truths.
usurp violent waters.
X-ray your zenith.
Debate Became Heated
There were two groups who each other greeted;
At a drastic debate that had become heated;
Rhetoric for sure;
Hard to endure,
And revolved in a circle which was repeated.
Jim Horn
Uncommon me
with rhetoric and fancy shoes.
Uncommon me
for what else do I have to lose?
Uncommon zeal
and half an ounce of courage too-
Uncommon me
and certainly, uncommon you.
(for Johnette)
To hell in a hand basket, a famous old phrase
Times haven't changed, they're even kookier today
With those at the helm
We're overwhelmed
With threatening rhetoric, things have started to decay
To hell in a hand basket, a famous old phrase
Times haven't changed, they're even kookier today
With those at the helm
We're overwhelmed
With threatening rhetoric, things are starting to decay
To hell in a hand basket, a famous old phrase
Times haven't changed, they're even kookier today
With those at the helm
We're overwhelmed
With threatening rhetoric, things are starting to decay
Recall the rhetoric they promote.
Much like their predecessors, they’ll
struggle to keep us afloat.
In truth, they do not care;
all spouted by rote.
Agree to all
you denote,
for your
vote.

A pun, a true play on words!

Phonetic pun poetic!

The realm
of the mind,
where dream
abounds
private,tender
ravaged by rhetoric
where confusion
struggles
with truth:
melancholia breathes
secret intrigues..
the anodyne..
prevails
All over the world
Innocent men
Women and children
By the tens of thousands
Being put down
News ratings
Poverty
Unemployment
Rhetoric
Way up
Political intelligence
In the twenty first century
So far
Flat
Words -
incite
good, evil
peace and rage. Words -
spoken in hateful
tones divide, destroy
encouraging ignorance.
Words- spoken with temperance grow
understanding, foster tolerance.
Rhetoric that cannot be revoked - words...
Shadow me not,
for in my light you will disappear,
Take up your own rein,
disperse with your speak,
dwell not,
My warning take heed,
your rhetoric is plagued,
hitch hikers, decline their thumb.
Your words know their own way home.
