Blight

Nothing grows on salted earth,
Finding only empty husk .
Tilling the soil of layered death
Causing blight with every tear.

A man alone,
Plagued by fears.
Swollen eyes,
With salted tears.

Mind tormented,
Heart bereft.
Lost forever,
The day she left.

Tasty dish Okra and rice
with some salted fish,
Steamed down with coconut milk

Sweet N' Salty

Pecan, pumpkin, apple or key lime;
I save room for dessert every time.
To really make me swoon,
and bark out at the moon
Salted caramel cheesecake is sublime!

On a Cocktail Napkin

A dance of fire
and a Rootbeer
smile,
chewing french fries,
watching skin dry.


Hot dog buns show us
the true murderers.
salted pretzels
the sinners.

Teardrop

Meandering slowly a crystalline memoir 
that signifies, unveils the strife
furrowed deeply in her heart.
Encapsulated in that salted bead
Anguish liquidated.

To the theater went bold Mary Brown

for her sweetness she's surely renown

then she salted her corn

when her date wanted ****

Now he lies in the aisle quite facedown.

New Blood

My Poem still an open wound,
  unstitched by edits snare

Running free on a salted page,
—new blood for all to share

The Salted Knee

She felt the tepid skin of her thigh against her face
a teardrop straddling from her cheek
looking for hope in a dream
that always ended
as his slaps left
her welted skin

Ice

The iceman was coming, t’was ice that I smelt
Another ice storm, was about to be dealt
More ice to be salted
And more ice to melt
I’m no fan of ice, and that’s how I felt.

Listen to poem:
Founded in the Han,
Dynasty and Rome, 'Tickle,
Torture' was penance,
Of nobles, no scar, quick fix,
Salted feet, for goats to lick.

Away You Shed

My love for you is shedding away 
Alike the smooth blonde 
From atop my head 

My thoughts of you are shedding away 
Alike the salted tears 
Running down my cheeks 
Before i lay for bed

How about you?

Shaken
Stirred
Crushed
Mixed
Shot
Spilled
Topped off
Set on fire
Rims salted
Served over ice
With a splash...


Oh, you mean to drink;
Give me anything.


Dry.

Beatify the heart in sapphire waves...
Echoes of the piper's sweet refrain.
Amend twisting steps, wash them all away.
Canonize salted souls with angel spray.
Harpist of silver shoals stroking golden rays~

Nature In Its Revealing

When last I passed this way, again,
I saw the river meet the sea
And it with current rapidly
Rushing over rocks and sand
Did splash into the salted wave
And in the end become as one
Beneath the boiling foam.

Premium Member Pizzicato

Where’s my loyal confidant,
If love recovers again?
This emptiness of heart,
Fulfills to be a single friend;

The jargon on my noggin,
What’s her color, favorite?
Pop in, lightly salted;
I am satisfied with –

Midnight Swim

Bathed in surf. Oceans rouse a midnight swim, lovers drenched in waves of salted kisses.

There Were Many Shipwrecks Here.

On a robust breeze, the sunset flares
through the ripe peach filtered clouds.

As they extend garish golden glaze
past bleached sands, salted corpses.

Cold crying of sailors washed clean
slipping off the clambering crabs.
