  the pen shatters
    ink splatters

Yellow paintbrush.
Paint splatters on your exterior.
Yellow.
Wet.
Cold.
Paint splatters no more.
Lost.
Sad.
Gone.
Yellow paintbrush no more....

Miro impulsively hurled his paint
making spots&splatters quite quaint
Action painting upon the dark blue
in metaphor&symbols so new
Enough to make the viewer faint...

When decorating, please ensure that
you wear some old clothes and a hat
the colour choice matters
in case the paint splatters
so pick something that matches your cat....

Twilight pours over us in a crimson tide,
A spilled merlot drip from a bottle drunk dry.

Swallow what is left of the russet sun wine,
That splashes on the moon that splatters sunshine....

The mosquitoes swirl
in the mix with her soft 
skin --
applause splatters

a melodrama
is presented, deadly duet--
malaria looms

A minute menace
niggles the baby's 
mother--
high warmth within...

Quantum g-spot
Simultaneous revulsion
And primal mystic
Archaic groan
Unpredicable tectonic
Moaning through time
Creation spins itself
Reincarnation splatters across the waves
Fingering past time hopes
Groping for change...

cold
sea fog
shrouds the road
corn whiskey breath
permeates truck/s cab
flashing lights dead ahead
break too late - crash certain, glass
shatters, blood splatters like red paint
I didn't hear nobody pray, brother...

Splatters of paint on 
a canvas and a cosmic;
portrait comes to life.

Dancing clouds disperse
light creates abstraction, it’s
universal art.

Gallery worthy
pixilation dancing at
universal ball.

A tear is shed momentarily
It falls from a closed eyelid
Descends towards
the concrete ground
with rapid speed
And splatters into 
a splotched shape
A second tear
descends down the
cheek but is quickly
wiped away with
a damp sleeve....

Screaming whistle
.   Start! 
Puck drops.
Clattering sticks,
splintering on ice
Crowd roars
Skates scrape, 
Sweat stinks
Ice sprays, 
Blood splatters,
Player down!
Ear splitting whistle 
.    Stop!



a different kind of vignette...

i feel the pierce
of each tiny shard
wafting through air
as that glass shatters
in echoes against walls

 my blood
splatters the same
as it falls down




i am fine...just musing......

The rain flings itself
Against the chrome
Splatters and withdraws
To its prickly realm
Like the timid entrepreneur; 
Who must slam stopped
Before the crowd
Whose audience rumbles on
Without notice
Who quickly gathers himself
And evaporates....

As i put this gun to my head
You'll forget every word i said
As my own blood splatters across the hall
My very existence will slowly fall
Your fake pity and care
Something so easy to tare
My heart ripped out my chest
To you this was all just a test ...

Bright
spring sky,
cloud sails in
ivory fleet, 
on its silk shadow
dew-crowned jade grass splatters
sublime sheen on rose petals. 
Luring scent floats in breeze bracing 
chromatic canvas of bloomed garden,
butterflies weave tapestry of nature.

The ballerinas danced _swirls twirling
Brown sugar semi-sweet
A taste of heaven upon the tongue
Chocolate chips tasty treat

Dance, dance 'pon the kitchen floor
Avoid splatters on the wall
Watch those beaters swirl that thick dough
Don't let those eggs shells fall  ...

Colors that light you up ,
From the inside out ..

Smiles that remain
Upon lips that glitter,
In a straight line;

Gazing at the sky,
Splatters upon lashes ..
Do you taste it?
Sweeter than a Kiss,
Do you hear it ?
Soft as a song;
Can you feel it?
Across the air,
Do you feel it?.
As the wind dances
Across the air......

It doesn't matter what you look like
It doesn't matter what you feel
All that matters is where it lands
when you spin the wheel.
Where the blood splatters and
and finally congeals;
perhaps out back, in your garden. 
The neighbors would say:
'but he was so genteel...'
Onerous is the duty
of knowing what's real....
