The hammer rises
The sickle moves to mow down…
Ukraine Europe’s shield
The USSR reborn
Never did disintegrate.

Pop Sickle

Old Father Time offered for sale
Used scythes Death designed to impale
The demos were free
But if you ask me
Those buyers looked woefully pale!

Premium Member Uninspired

Feeling uninspired
Walking the mire
Out of my bones
From drugs at last
Sickle not seen
Or ivory cast
Baby I’m blessed
You I will not get past

Wine In King's Glass

On the metamorphic I sprouted
Sun and snow I braved;
With sickle I was weaned
Pain of pressing who can stand?
Let no one envy me:
Wine in King's glass.

Grim

I wish for the loving caress of his sickle blade, the whispering touch of his bony hand, to be 
wrapped in his cloak of darkness in his loving embrace.

sickle moon moves slyly
slices dark clouds in dim sky
stars sprout to light up
sore mind shreds life in its grip 
divine soul wakes up to heal

Premium Member Think Back

When was the last time 
  you heard "butter brickle"
or saw the hammer and sickle

I'll bet you a wooden nickel
  it's about the last time
you ate a non-kosher pickle!

Against Bigotry

Be not a slave of a bigoted mind 
With crafty heart that's so unkind 
For its tyranny will enslave your soul 
Like a sickle that will rip apart your goal

Life

life is fickle
a bit like a pickle

it will cost a nickel 
for a hammer and sickle

i have a freckle on my face
now give me a tickle

life is fickle
just like a pickle.

Premium Member Dribbling In the Gulag

A drug-smuggling dribbler is in a pickle
Commie LeBron is acting quite fickle
She should rot in a gulag
With this self-oppressed snob
Until they choke on the hammer and sickle

Premium Member Snowman Spoons

Snowman spoons we tenderly made,
Some looked sickle and some looked spade;
Snowmen on cocoa hot,
Lay forethought spot forgot; 
On each, our kitten made a raid…!

Trickle of Hammer and Cycle

Trickle of Hammer and Cycle

Down theory there has been a trickle,
And are afraid of hammer and sickle;
Trump frown,
World renown,
And again as usual we are in a pickle.

The Dead Poet

Where the poet died
while writing what,
His hand gone by
for what he thought
Were no more words
than what he got
from on his page
as just a jot
where sickle made
was Reaper Sought!

Marma laid there, endured Pop’s tickle
Marm got even, swung the sickle
These days, Pop’s a bit less fickle
Stares at Marma’s jar of pickles

'ouch'

A man found himself in a pickle
When his girlfriend found he was fickle
He said "won't you stay"
She said "there's no way"
As she took his head off with a sickle.

erect climbing n trailing
serrated edges of budding
love /deciduous wind
pollinates /epidermal out growths
sickle shaped hooks of torture
vestigial flicker of delight
browsing at the end of a meadow

Fist For Freedom

Union of my fingers
In the hand
Soviet a fist!
On the sovereign's body  
Yet why
Do I

My feet?
I remembered
I gotta get a hammer
and
Hang up
My father's sickle
On the republic's stable wall.

Premium Member The Field of Forgiveness

The field of forgiveness lies ripe and golden,
But my sickle has been broken 
By the durity of time 
And its unrelenting chime
Marking each kilometer
Until, at last, golden harvest is threshed by the Reaper.

Death waits at the garden gate, his sickle is shining and sharp, Martyrs better not be late, or they won’t get a bloody harp.

Premium Member A Crescent Moon


pale silver sickle
hangs in the grey velvet sky~
a silent vigil.

stars begin to gleam
tiny diamonds scattered far~
a guide in darkness.

gentle light descends
touching sleepy, dreaming earth~
a hushed, soft embrace.
