This Earthly Life

This earthly life
the more you laugh
the more you’ll cry
crying you are born
crying you will die
for either, no stampede
all are in the waiting list

While most view T-Rex as extinct
To a romping reptile Don's linked!
Their shared DNA
Lets the T-Rump say:
We’ll stampede with orders I’ve inked

My Jenny Horse

Now I think I have to concede
My Jenny horse eats too much feed,
Loves her chaff, loves fresh grass,
But through the barn door she can't pass,
Clearly a case of food stampede..

Premium Member JOY

Joy is jumping on the bed~ a springy, giggly, wild stampede. The mattress squeaks, the pillows fly, and suddenly I’m ten again~ a rebel with no respect for gravity.

Along the Line

Snooze of peace reigned on a collage
of sacred impulse for serenity of shelter —
bower-girthed and soul-inundated —
but along the line, a stampede, peccant
and harlotic,
framed the sun.

If I Saw You

If I saw you,
like a stampede, it would crush me
If I saw you,
my heart would break again 'tis true
with a smile, tears you would not see
one good bye kiss, I'd set you free
If I saw you

Sense Stampede

A need for speed
Hear me plead
Intense, extreme
Sense stampede 

Pour me more
Spill to floor
Enough, too little
Average, bore

Thin my skin
Outside in
With your touch
I’ll feel again

To Be Enlightened

To Be Enlightened

When to be enlightened you have a need;
Should stampede so you can see Joy Reed,
During each  day,
Take breath away,
And in news market is now taking the lead.

Stampede

When confronted with
edicts of expendability,
the sanest of minds
condemn usury as a practice
defecating on
the nobler edicts of survival
until all herded
charge the very gates of compliance.

Stampede

Ten thousand hooves and horns on the Devil's run
                          Lighting crashing, thunder rolling, all Hell has broke loose
                                          A nightmare, full speed ahead

Thirsty

You left me holding an empty canteen
So I ran to you like a panicked stampede
But your fountain of love
Was all dried up
And my raindance only made you seethe

stampede

ghosts of factories 
shotguns checked shirts, red necks, 
rust the vultures waiting for

Need For Weed So Stampede

Need for Weed So Stampede

What was well known that we all agreed,
Did have a desire to start smoking weed,


So to store to buy we would stampede.

Have Been Here On Earth

Have Been Here On Earth

While you Have Been Here On Earth,
Take my poem for what it is worth;
Much to read;
Should stampede,
And many issues did discover a dirth.

Big Apple

You walk fast 
New York,
Heavy stampede
Steps
The concrete ground
You stand.
I married you
In April,
Costly 
Earsplitting
Streets 
Awaken me.
Global breath
Aromas
Vibrant
Sparkling eyes 
Vanished evermore. 
I’m back,
We have matured.

Helpless An

A million feet stomp,
A million shoes, a million suits
Her petals have flattened into the ground
It’s rush hour
A woman stops briskly,
A happy change for her
Bending slowly with the stampede around her
She picks up the flower and brings her home.

Bleeding Hearts

Flowers poured as teardrops fell 
The sorrow flowed out like well 
On the streets where poor souls were slain 
Bleeding hearts endure the pain 

In commemoration of the South Korean stampede and the sympathy that gave birth to one of my greatest poems

Premium Member Scattered Thoughts

Scattered thoughts
Roam empty fields
In search of an idea
To gather ‘round
Wind-blown ideas
Thoughtless tumbleweeds
Drift aimlessly
In search of a thought
A devilish wind
herds
The roaming drifters
Laughs
As they stampede
In search of a cause
