Black Water

Black water sinks down.
Pushes my body, and faith.
You said something in the moon.
Just us.
Then the tide turned me 'round.


This broken sink

I would still use thee
And while at it giggle with glee
Broken cracked you are
Reflect my use like a star
Hihi, i used it to pee

Premium Member Holding My Own

He took everything of value from me
Except a house with a busted sink
He thought I was screwed
With the denim divorce blues
I’m free now a rich divorcee

Sink

as the cruise ship begins to sink
the man's face color starts to turn pink
he laid eyes on his mark
jump on the back of a shark
who bucked, throwing him onto a plank

Premium Member Castles In My Sink

I like Arthur 
stack my dishes 
high in mounds of glass and steel 
like castles in the sink they rise
until the very top 
when wet they slip  
to their and my demise

Trump Stink In Sink

Trump Stink In Sink

When Trump runs water into sink,
Like everything else raises a stink;
Thought about;
Then did shout,
Am glad now that Trump is extinct.

The Sound of Gravity: Leaking Sink

Drip, drip, drip
Watch for water or you'll trip
Drop, drop, drop
Someone better get the mop
Drip, drop, drip
Dumb gravity! I slip--
Drop, drip, drop
Someone, make the water stop!

Jar

• I open the fridge and what do I see? • A jar full of mildew waiting for me • Out of the jar and into the sink • For one, the jar has mildew and smells really stink

Premium Member hair dye on my sink

My bathroom is pink
Hair dye on my sink
In the bath tub too
Punky color, Burmese blue
My towel is a mess
Hair dye on a dress
Burmese blue on a wall
Splattering hair dye down the hall

Sink Or Swim

I ramble and shove words together 
And sometimes I pick apart my unpleasant thoughts
Look,

I can try to remember
I can try to forget
It’s sink or swim and I can’t tell which is which

The Foul Mouthed

Foul mouthed he was,foul mouthed he was called,
A beast with words,an obsession he wards,
South is his tone,without a fear to his baritone,
A grave his tongue digs,for him he'll only sink.

Premium Member Found a Baby Hippo in the Sink

We found a baby hippo in the sink today
Can we keep him Daddy? Asked Jimmy and Fay
Absolutely! Mommy said, making him the bad guy.
Why do you do these things her husband asked her. Why? Why? Why?

Slow Sink

Accepted have I
inspected close by
The liquor offered by life
Sea of it's offered in rife.

My role, it's given.
High of sinking has me driven
To accept it ever so slowly
Too despised is water, too holy.

Premium Member Baby Rhino Bubbles Up In the Sink

Rhino baby bubbles up the sink in a flash
He is showing his goods, and he makes an incredible splash!
This is a whine sloshed out by my roommate, Leroy Flash.
Who is a bit scared of the baby; his teeth all a’gnash!

Sink the Ship

Bring it on
Let the fire fly
Burn me down
Fill in with pain
I am lost in your love

Sing to me
Oh dark bird
Ease my pain
Soothe my heart
Seive out the cries
Tie my past
Make my path right
In you I found love

World Ship In Sink

Oh,girl sitting on a beautiful swing 
Up and down going like a spring

How do you do with no two wings?

Here and there Corona is in full swing 
Even a Prince in hardships virus brings 

Don’t you feel fear the World ship is in sink!

Slow Sink

      I take your weight
  so that we may fall to the depths 
           unscathed as lungs fail
   I'll hold you close
     the rocks will not harm your flesh
 hush you to sleep
          forever in my arms
     until forever floats away

Refuse To Sink

My body felt heavy like an anchor,
 gravity was taking over,
As my legs began to give out.
I didn’t even have the strength to carry myself anymore. 
But I refuse to fall down,
 to let gravity take over, 
to let this ocean drown me. 
I refuse to sink.

Premium Member bathroom sink paraphernalia

toiletries arranged by the sink
toothbrush green, powder in pink
cylinders, tins, glass bottles too
make up, soaps and comb of blue

most of it is used every day
except a red pig made of clay
paraphernalia in its place
husband defers with sweet grace

Sink Deeper Deeper

sink deeper deeper 
within the recesses of 
a dark dismal existence
that has been lade out 
in front of the present 
version of self 
created  by way of 
negative self induced sabotage 
brought about through years 
a top of years of being controlled 
by anxiety

Premium Member Love In the Kitchen Sink

My hands penetrate warm dish water
An effect of silken skin,
Rainbow eyes sparkle
Spy me as I move within,
It’s all I have left for comfort,
For life which has given
Sure does make one pay,
Now all alone with no more dreams
When each end of day you drain away.
