Premium Member Witch

Worshippers of nature
Who are rarely even
Wicked as some assume,
Wiccans use rituals
Wanting to focus their
Willpower to bring the
World the joy of living

Sleepless Night

Sleepless Night

Bedtime rituals
To have a good night’s sound sleep
Turn off light, no tea
Goes early into the bed
Busted by a roommate’s noise

Me and the Fumes

As I smoke the living dead, I inhale my mind
and produce dreams as if the devils thoughts 
were convulsing in bliss. They become reality and dance
around me as pagan rituals.

Flaming With Marbles

THESE

 marbles that roll

inside my head

BECOME

 a flaming fire

when I dream in bed

AWAKENINGS

from these nightly rituals

writing this crap down is

 my morning habitual

Copulins

genetic mutations
two toned faces of
true hermaphrodites
claws at the end of the trap
cannibalistic rituals
guiding the souls to the 
living descendants
shedding shells pheromones

Mirror Yourself

If you love yourself 
You like yourself
Even the rituals in the mirror 
Will give you pleasure
You will not count the time 
Spent on care wasted 
You will see it as a contribution
Contribute to your appearance, health, good mood.

Stupid Poems 27

you cannot be religious
by observing all the rules
and rituals and reading 
scriptures
you are following a dead religion
from centuries ago built on
fear and insecurity
be free be you
you will be
beautiful

Premium Member Two For Price of One

sensitive
          extensive
    meditative
the rituals
     become styles

microcosm of
       the interwoven

threads 
      in a labyrinth
of
  uncertainty
    of the non figurative

transparency
           distilled
in the
         poetic

Premium Member Sunny Day Rituals

Filled with sunny day rituals,
we are a sampling of the craft;
The bourgeoisie will call us fools,
filled with sunny day rituals;
Magical keys and safety tools,
duplicitous sides come off daft;
Filled with sunny day rituals,
we are a sampling of the craft.

No Prayer

Religions want your property
Rituals aim to get it free
But honour bound
No one has found
Their god treats heathens differently


n.b.  No prayer to any god by any
religious leader - nor adherent - 
by any method nor ritual -
has softened the heart of Putin!

Premium Member 4 Single Dads

Sun rays slide across your face
Inviting silhouette artistic shades of love
Needling fingers plats a braid
Girl dad doing her hair not a fad
Little rituals she enjoys 
Emerald ribbons matching joy

Doing all tasks of mom
And those of a daddy
Definitely a hero to your kids

Their Rosary Prayers

She willed in tempered frosts
    that hidden,
        without consternation 
the pew should call his name
Pale pink shadow,
   of hushed cheek
 
Knowing her rose in origin,
     and passages through,
a shameful pride began his edifice,
     as her joys sculpted his rituals

Premium Member Reverence

In all that matters
matter is all
appreciation, estimation, favor
consistent
deep respect 
continually
rituals showed honor and reverence 
high esteem, high regard, great respect, acclaim, admiration
reverence

Run Run Run

Run run run rapidly readily rigorously
Reaching roads rivers railways
Run run run rough remote rambling routes
Realizing regret remorse remain redundant
Run run run re-evaluating racing rituals
Remaining respectful responsible  relaxed
Run run run repetitively run run run repeatedly

Beauty Rituals

I pity thy facade.
Caked layers of makeup.
Two faces, twice the work.
Masking. Hiding. Deceit.
     Outward lie.
     Apply. Shroud.
     Cloak. Comply.
     Deny tears.
     Features die.

Premium Member Rituals

Rise, quiet sisters, knit of silver fire,
Reach through the dark where ancient shadows cling,
Repeat the breath, the cadence of desire,
Ring out the bowl, the timeless offering,
Renew the soil, the water, and the wire,
Reveal the sacred shape of everything,
Return the soul to where the stars conspire.

Over Bacon and Cigarettes

crippled
by mornings and sunsets
the daily city rituals
consumed with norms and smiles
I try to find me in it

Muted
by wonderful words spoken
The music commemorates us
Watch for the stop sign
But this life says go

Live
waking up in a sunshine
breathing my air
Where is my star?
What glistens without you
Form: Elegy

L Limbo suspended

I Inclusion excluded

F Ferocity tamed

E Ends extended

S Souls surrendered


M Meters inched

Y Yoga edged

S Systems declassified

T Triads bipolar

E Echoes vacant

R Rituals freed

I Introjects projected

E Eternity eluded 

S Squares un-circled

Premium Member Soulful Strut

feet marching to the heavens
where dreams and martyrs dwell
where freedom plays its fife
in the rhythm of darkness

chains and whips begone
rituals of rope and poplar trees as well
these cudgels are no longer my legacy

on shoulders of the past
this heir who knows
how I counter could be my lot
could be my hell
