Premium Member Quantum Leaping Twist

Quantum leaping across the universe, I found myself, my spirit; a lovely reunion with my past selves!

my soft heart tenderly beats.

my mind focuses on things
nostalgic when I'm alone.

The Pheonix


I was born of fire
I'll wear the embers of my past selves like a coat of armor
Despite the Kingdom of Ash pooled at my feet
I stand

Mask

That which is us,
Is not truly us,
It is just a façade,
A charade for the public,
A mask until our true selves,
Are revealed and we are free.


Alien Territory

alien territory
the visade is
mandatory- it's
easy to forget
underneath we
have let our
selves fade from
sight- just as
dawn swallows
night.

Haiku -Egg Selves

keep eyes on egg selves
                                 how chicks grow in morning sun
                                       a peck of wise hearts

Fulfill Our Lust

Arm the world
To arm our selves
To fulfill our lust
For blood that sells
To protect ourselves
And kill with shells
To arm the world
Finance new hell

Ugly mono verse poem

Real and Virtual Life

Physical, mental, real,
Virtual, spiritual:
possibilities of my selves.
reality lives,
between the real and the virtual...
others, the world, and me....

Stoical

filled blurry eyes
this embrace
old view prevails
stoical
by recount
shuffling selves
hadn't we known
truth mattered
then it crawled underneath
and died

Honour Your Parents

Today's children,
honor your parents
to enjoy the world's joy.

Love your parents,
as you love your selves,
our parents are  our life,
the source of every thing.

Drunk Buddies

Drunk Buddies

Minds

while alcohol
intoxication sees grandiose selves.

Trying and Relying

To help out selves we were trying,
When on God should been relying;
While He waited,
Trouble created;
Devil disturbs so must be denying.

The Cosmos represent the
Eternal presence of the Lord.
The Land of the Earth
Represents our bodily selves.
The Waters are religions,
Differently placed, but same in essence.

Trump Supporters Get a Grip

Get A Grip

Trump supporters on selves get a grip;
He should have served an internship,
Experience received,
And us not deceived;
He should have given us all the slip.

Our lives were always at high risk in that small town of loonies. 
Ironically, we still take calculated risks in cities;
Where we found our true selves, no longer need each other's pities.

a celestial ship comprised of angels claim us and then reveal
our true selves to us!

Letters don't come easy
shuffling selves circle liner
weighed down by desperation
yet old purveyors keep their vista

Premium Member We All Wear Masks At Times

We all wear masks at times
hiding our true selves
never wanting others to see
what's deep within our hearts

We do unveil at times
displaying our vulnerable side
those who are closest to us
know who we truly are
