Short Seethes Poems

Mind desires blush red
 heart seethes with passions embrace
 scarlet beats the soul...

doubt 
in solitude
lingers&hovers,
pushes&pulls:
first silent
then loud
articulates 
the unthinkable,
seethes
blurs
frets
undoes
the unwary...

leviathan sleeps —
tosses and turns sea cauldron
white foam froths in deep

who dares awaken this beast
whose halitosis breath seethes?

Selfishness runs through my blood
It flows through my veins like hot lava
It seethes in my mind like burning coal
It rips through my flesh like tiny serpents
It's made me the monster I am today...

Old girlfriends, my dad’s drifting down that path,
Into death valley as my mom seethes wrath.
The old man’s gone crazy.
His mind sharp, not lazy.
Mom’s dried the dishes. Dad’s in the flight path.

The new leaves we saw unfurling
Are now colour changed and falling

Spirit once soothed in a soft breeze’s embrace
Now seethes, hurling ice shards in my face

New rose buds that were late to bloom
Stay with you, frozen, entombed.

A perceived love
Gone horribly awry
The anger seethes within
Destroying all in its path
The damage completed
Seen entirely too late
A twisted and angry Phoenix
Lays blackened and decomposing
Done in by imagined longings
And a dangerous mind...

A killer moon
blinks     
in a mating dance.

Smothered by kisses
frugal night
seethes with anger.

In synchronized,
house of limbs -;
the pink underside.

Fireflies
lost the way
between light and dark.

Of sunflowers
and a nude
lies a tale.

Below the Surface, something Boils
Something Seethes and something Churns
Something Wakes; it Stirs - Uncoils!
Something Aches and something Burns
Something festers, something stings
For relief my Psyche screams!
Waves of Calm and soothing Song,
Alas! Are things of Dreams......

A 
ravaged
savage sea
seethes like lava
underneath the moon,
strange eye in clouded sky.
It stares blackly out at man,
bright orange iris reflecting
angry flames of waves below. . . Sun fled;
now all we know is Satan in the moon.

Swollen eyes
drip with clever tears
a thin disguise
years of slippery lies

A loss of face
fools gold in the hand
a rush of space
words snap into place

The silver voice
forked-tongue delivers
practiced poise
cold weapon of choice

The silence breathes
a clock tick-tocks
a body heaves
a lifetime seethes...

Grief seethes deep in mangled mind,
pained heart sinks in dark abyss,
divine light sheathes soul enshrined,
blessed essence gets calm solace of bliss.

Grime under the table cloth

Beneath the fluorescent lights and sterile walls, 
Lurks an undercurrent of unspoken strife. 
The daggers are kept hidden, the words unsaid, 
But the tension is palpable, 
A throbbing wound. 
For all the forced cordiality, 
the animosity seethes underneath.

                                 God’s wrath

~ Footpath ~
                     ~ Glide path ~

Demon wing dipped bloodbath. God’s wrath seethes.

Gentle souls find footpath. Glide path breathes.

Glide path – the final path followed by an aircraft as it is landing,
thus our souls breathe as they alight in heaven....

 The dark one ascends from the deep black abyss
Poison upon his lips
Death within his kiss

Seduction seethes from his being
Sex within his touch alone
Enveloping...Deceiving

Lies sweet as candy entice you
All thoughts evaporate
Lost within icy gazes luring from eyes of blue

The voice of the damned soothes the mind with it's gentle caress
His will your own no fighting his pull
As his presence leaves cold all the rest...

Snowy domesticated boudoir in chaste thrills,
Tempts passionate skills in the silky soft frills,
Inspires pleasure in incredulous fire;
Seethes in fornicated quivers of desire;

Tamed vigor engulfs perpetrator with glee,
As ecstasy trembles and seduces thee,
Naive indulgence evoke unbound raptures,
Entrapped out bursts to tantalize captures:

It is her foray of crushed sensuality;
He conjures the delighted brutality....

wielding, slashing releasing my wrath
rhyming prose my double-edged sword
releasing all this pent-up anger
directed at my own weaknesses

berating, lambasting where it seethes
even though I saw, I failed to see
with every withdrawal and your repose
a shield you use to deflect my blows

the sweetest gift you could have left
this one I use to pen and reflect
the only one who has let me down
is the one in the mirror staring back...

Thought on the write


A Shower of salt,
in eyes you read?
To what seethes,
this creep.
For my Joyouse ooze,
of free verse.
A picking of placing,
the coolist stamp,
when my visions
Are danced in ink.
Spindle, full knitting,
crisscrossing the stitch.
Work chalkboard lessons,
of wisdom dismissed.
Then rhyme ends.
That most, if not all,
Take it for cable.
Granted.
You are it's god,
it's devil, and ribbon.
All in perception....

I was bred at sea,
                     I'm from the sea ...
                       I'm its salt,
                      of its word soul ...!
                     I went to the sea from further,
                     soul of my sea,
                       my blood seethes ...
                     Sea is a word of love,
                     compared to an 
                      immense ocean  of
                      amour messages ...!...

The still water of the northern swamp
shone like anthracite coal
lending a rainbow hue to the reflections
of maiden hair fern 
and skunk cabbage.

Strangely, maples rooted wearily beneath
in the hidden depths of blue-blackness.
Sunlight sparks like fireflies.
The leaden air caskets the first layer 
of rampant growth,
misting moss,
masking mushrooms
where slick green frogs hide.
The heat bakes the bank but the swamp
seethes in delight....

You’ve already won,
And I am guilt,
Spitting, writhing beneath you,
And yet you gloat over me,
Though my spirit cannot move,
Cannot fight, cannot love

Helpless in chains,
I lie bound to you,
Shackled to the past,
As you drag my dead heart
Across the pain I’ve forged,
And I cannot forget

Unforgiving you remain,
And hatred seethes inside me,
Though it is not for you,
But for my flint heart not yet cold,
Cursed to care, but never love,
And I beg you for release....
