Sledgehammer

Sledgehammer was so enamored 
Of my wife Elizabeth Bard
'I am a modern beau
Never, I cannot go slow'
Oh Sorry, he was caught offguard
fun

If I were to take a sledgehammer
Grip it tender but tight
So its iron skull may send
A scathing speech to your sternum
Would bricks take flight,
Or are you truly that dense?

                      set for life 
                   
                  to be a success 
            takes an element of luck 
               a big sledgehammer 
                fortuitous ricochets 
       unlike me ~ know when to duck

Capture the moments that will never come back

                         two squirrels play in the walnut tree 

                   Do they use a sledgehammer to crack a nut?

Rule of Timmer

Use a sledgehammer to crack a nut
                                   Use a howitzer to blast you butt
                                      This was the rule of Timmer
                                         He was a creative beamer
                                 Put fire to his hut in imaginative smut

smited down by misfortune's sledgehammer

Premium Member Martin Luther King, Jr

The late, great Rev Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., also known as "Dr. King"
        His legacy and sledgehammer impact on civil rights, long-lasting

     In 1963, he eloquently delivered his iconic speech, "I Have A Dream"
Long-gone, yet his love light for humanity continues to gleam.

Aftermath of Rejection

Carve into your heart 
with a red hot knife
Cut away that part 
which justifies life

An exquisite piece 
of dream like arts
Torn and shredded 
into bloody little parts

Coughing it out 
bit by tiny bit
What doesn't digest, 
doesn't just sit

Sledgehammer blows on
a  pretty white dove
The brutal fate of 
an unwanted love

Bender

All night
a sleepwalking death
stumbled in and out of his prone body.

He had been drinking again,
whisky fumes rolled around
a dry, thick tongue.

The air in the room
wavered from hot to cold,
feverish self-repeating scenes
of Paganini trilling a fiery violin
haunted his aching brow.

A sledgehammer dawn hit him.
Death withdrew from dulled senses,
yet it lingered like a bloodshot eye,
at the bottom
of a half-full decenter.

Boomerang

I am shackled to my front door 
My definition of freedom is foregin 
I am cold 

Cold is my dying dreamer
Cold is my burning rage
Cold is a sledgehammer

It gives and it takes

Silence is my voice 
Tired is my body 
Death is me

For a love i have lost 
The burden carrying back broken

For a dream that i killed
Temptation is golden 

The steps to my hell 
Lead to a door 
The door that knows my many faces 

The boomerang that breaks me.

She

By her prose a palace built; Dioclesian, marble-carved. Every verb sinks to the hilt And settles there, trailing silt And I chip away grammar, With us in museum-lull; Statuesque, sans what glamour Was burst by the sledgehammer Of Distance (Your best defence), In cautious doubting tiny taps Around the surface. Nouns tense, Tasting such salt-permanence. I dust your indelibly- Sung radiant cadences (Me still now in minor key). Ever monumental - She.
