Ocean Waves

Restless Soul of Sea
somersaulting waves rupture
Tsunami drowns Love.

Premium Member Our Time

our
time
cashed out
way before
the meter expired
sending our dreams somersaulting
helter skelter to the whims of what never was planned
leaving fairy tales breathless, our favorite song, weeping still, in the landfill of love

Dolphins

They scatter all over above the beautiful reefs,
often times somersaulting over the ocean.
For a moment I get lost in their celebration;
yes, celebrating to be alive!
A sense of being alive gets reborn in me
gradually, as the sun sets into the horizon.
"What do you want to be when you grow up?"
"Happy!"
That's what I would have told my teacher
years back as a kid......

Somersaulting Rebellions

Clocks somersault to drive time;
Can we stop time by breaking all clocks and alarms?

The Earth somersaults to sail through years and centuries;
Would we request our ship to pause the aging of mankind?

The Light somersaults from dawn to dusk;
Could we order this planet to stop it's revolutions around the sun?

Lives somersault from good to bad;
But we can walk gracefully without bad deeds.

Premium Member Flying Blind Like the Dodo

on a shoestring diet only going around in circles ~ yo yo 

inside a huge tornado just somewhere over the rainbow ~ toto

happily oblivious on a corkscrew rollercoaster ~ ho ho

somersaulting off the high board heading for a bellyflop ~ no no

paratroopers landing awkwardly behind enemy lines ~ go go

highly intelligent beings orbit the densest planet ~ so so

The Truth Utters a Verdict

slide me into a flight suit
shoot me somersaulting
to the stars as I cushion
in ether, to wait, 
a solitary orb
dimming 


spiked with steel 
Fates hand took hold,
she the keeper of answers 
secretly and slowly, 
spun the arms of time 
and found the key 
to a treasure 


we thought,


we had been patient 
until Science and Religion 
made a pact with fate 


my Pandora’s box is opening
and I may just shoot to the stars

The Trios

Lofty crafts of sensational creations, 
Oily traits dripping affections
Vulnerable hearts somersaulting
Evisaging allusive hyperbole. 

Damped dance, complex steps
Elating destruction with a breath
Acreage littered with confetti of gloom
Tainted trails, dainty doom
Hood hoisted, deep-six in hell. 

Track embroidered with bramble brier 
Innuendos of choices chunk at men
Mid-way mediator of the turbulent twain
End of love, beginning of death.
