Definitely Not Forgotten

Do not forget to brush your teeth
For a rotten future you will meet
I forgot myself
And sourly dealt
With a pain so indiscreet
Form: Limerick


Premium Member Joe Schmidt

Joe Schmidt grew up the Eastern Bowery
His upbringing was less than flowery
He robbed a few banks
And a few more pranks
After which his whole life turned out sourly.

Srrruuudddy

The waiting clap handed smashy,

sits in a dime's oval,

swallows sourly-
yet diversify's the mind,

overly enveloped miniatures-
coasting to the camels,

choreographed lightly yet so marches the mass.

The Honey and the Vinegar

Once I had the opportunity
For hard-earned, sweet success
But I yawned instead and spurned my chance
To labour and progress

And so my potential festered
Scorned sourly in defeat
Now I am left with vinegar
In place of honey sweet.

Mermaids

Mermaids
The other mermaid?
Don´t you ask me about her, 
she wore a tight dress and
was in love with a rich man
who had a big swimming pool. 
 Sourly her glossy lips 
Open disdain 
of my shower unit   
 But my rubber duck she cheekily 
demanded 
I kept in my water bed.


Premium Member She Slips On Slippery Slope

She swims on streaming sonata of spring song, 
sailing slow sings solo in squall surge so strong,
slips on sheer slippery slope of sticky silt sheets,
on split Sitar of snapped strings she sourly sits.

Gobbledygook

Such swings the Muses' wail
to him that laxly trail
and her too, prone to frail
when we are out of jail
with truly turgid tongues
singing sourly sweet songs.

A sense and some music
comedy and tragic
of a form in a flow 
dangling on minds as snow
on a smooth sloping roof
it's just gobbledygook.

Premium Member Seaside Story

Serenading sea shore she strolls singing spring song 
Sauntering solo she suffers squall’s surge so strong 
Steep slippery slope’s sticky silt sucks, so she slips
Swelling surfs submerge, salty sap she sourly sips.

Flames of Bonds

As the flames a blazed and the torches illuminated the crying shouts of the night
Like steeples of lonely souls on shattered islands yearning for lifeboats
Like reddish cherry drowned in a sea of blood entwining sweetness with sourly fluid
Like a naked smile in a funeral of the dead hiding sadness behind a lying face searching for strength
New bonds created amidst of war like glistening stars in the dying space.

I Sense Tomorrow Is the Future

Its a sweet sourly taste
That leaves the emphasis wrapped in a blessing
Showers happiness accomplished through  sadness
Its a survival through intelligence
A past formulating the current
Presently mediating the next century
Seeing scarce resources being utilised
Distinguishing of things
Its the pain becoming known
Revelation of the shadow
