Decay’s Perfume

Windfalls,
bruised gold splitting,
their sweet rot perfumes the mouth
of earth. I breathe the death that feeds
new life.

We Are

we
are splitting
at the height
of an untimely rain
atoms 
naked 
trees of despair
the fire
in the belly
of a distant star
we are..

Premium Member Earthquake Temper Tantrum

Splitting soil and rock; quaking, 
shaking dance of death.
Land and sea alike,
Well shaken; no stirring here; 
an earthquake, temper tantrum.

Premium Member Go-Between

Once happy home now broken;
Mom and Dad are splitting up.
Only child tries to fix rift,
but it's all for naught.

Splitting Hares

Two rabbits will always make haste
One minute is too long to waste
Each split-second counts
So he quickly mounts
The chaste are chased by the two-faced
Form: Limerick

Don'T Go!

I can’t believe you could do such a thing, 
You’re splitting you and me, 
I’m not blaming you,
It’s not your fault
It's the oppisit
Im blaming myself.
Form:

Boom!

Teeth ache from the clench.
Tension.
Restraint.
Busting forth and out, like the splitting of an atom.
No mercy to those around.
Caught in the blast.
BOOM!

Premium Member Splitting An Infinitive

As he read from his poetic works
Romance filled her heart 
Overcome was she with delight
Until he split an infinitive

(This is just in fun..)

I plan on working on it..

Trump and Lincoln

Trump and Lincoln

Lincoln split long logs;
What Trump has given me is
A splitting headache.

Can you imagine building
things with Dump Trump 
logs wearing shower clogs.

The White Rabbit while all was in bed

Snuck in the back and ate all the bread

He thought it was funny 

This silly white bunny

Till the Red Queen said...OFF WITH HIS HEAD!

Breaking Glass

Shards breaking and splitting 
I saw myself shatter
What it the mirror
Or was it me?
I hear it fall on the ground
Me or the mirror? 
What's the difference?
What's the difference?

Premium Member How the Air Crackles

       How the very air
       c-r-a-c-k-l-e-s
       when she 
       steps into a room

       like silver
       stilettos
       ravaging stinging insects 

       splitting every second
Form: Imagism

Chemo

My therapy is chemical,
I go for weekly sessions.
My artery is femoral.
The site of my injection.

The venom attacks 
the mitosis of my splitting cell.
Dyspepsia takes over,
like a spinning carousel.
Form: Rhyme

Image

I hear
The quivering of fear
I see
A splitting image of who I want to be
Oh dear
Seems once again I stuck my head through the mirror
Why bother
No reason to change, what suits one always upsets another

Sunset

The wind splitting gaps
And creating a soothing hum 
Rustling branches sway
The sky is open as sunset ends the day
The horizon turns colors of autumn
As nature closes it's eyes
Only stars light the skies

Sunset Sky

Gold
ruptures
shining pearl,
splitting ashen
powdered nebula
languidly changing form.
Infused fuchsia wisps unfold
drowsily thread by thread trailing
athwart the resplendent crimson orb
seductively slipping into twilight.

Premium Member Sharing

Silver light from sister stars,
Splitting beams across the dark,
Softly lending what it has,
Spilling gold upon the plain,
Striking chords of quiet grace,
Showing how the cosmos gives,
Silent love that binds us all.

Splitting the Unhappy Atom

You go to bed unhappy,
in a separate room I also am unhappy.
Neither of us know why.

We worry too much
about each other's unhappiness.

Maybe we should talk less,
unhappiness always starts as a word
in our heads.
