Premium Member Kill Me

Why write meaningful poetry,
With pictures of bras below it?
Disgusting!
Next comes jock straps?
This poet just knows it.

Premium Member Fantasy Deletes Pain

Straps around his waist, And shining armour loosened. Brittle backbone hurts. Notepad, pen: poetry waits, Fantasy deletes all pain

The Gentleman

Her bra straps were a mite too tight
Her breasts looked like they had a fight
He kissed them better
Found a French letter
And did his best to make things right

Premium Member Snappers

There once was a Chick from the sea
whose two buxom breasts were set free.
Twin seaweed straps snapped
as thunder clouds clapped
and the sailors drown ecstatically.

In high heels
And party dress
Flouncing florals

And pink chiffon
Bare back
Spaghetti straps

Under moonglow
Stars above
Amorously fabulous

Premium Member The Potus Went Shopping

Wearing just mask, gloves and a Yankees cap
The POTUS went shopping, caused quite a flap
   Bought himself a small gift
   Ever practicing thrift ~
A teeny-weeny bikini, sans straps

London Rises

we're wading through 
a storm:

hate
wickedness

It straps on a bomb
It wields a knife

it knows no
race or colour

and still London
rises

my city of colours
my city of friendship

Premium Member Butterfly Sleeves

Sam’s butterfly sleeves, in pastel hurry, Gently billow like seagulls over feet. Indulgent, salted drops of sea, so sweet. Tan sand across her sandal straps, run free. 7/23/2021 Caren Krutsinger’s Flair and Fun Quatrain ABBA

Premium Member Striptease

STRIPTEASE

private invitation
on backyard veranda
sweet purple wine
straps dangle
she’s swaddled
in sensuous mystery

his breath in striptease
his eyes overwhelmed
he calmly sips his wine
of slow approach
this marriage he owns

Premium Member No Name Poem

no name poem
because 
that is all I can afford

when you are poor
life conspires
to keep you there

“pull up your boot straps”
What boots?

there is a price on every thing
except faith, that’s free
lots of it floatin’ around

can you tell me 
where I can put it?

Summertime

I.

Ta da, ta da, flip,

like cards in bicycle spokes,

percussive shoe, flop...



II.

Long spaghetti straps,

full circle twirly skirted,

sundress in warm breeze.



III.

Morning sand dune climb,

woven basket, cheese, red wine,

noon apéritif.

Marilyn Mon-Whoa

WHOA!!!
I say loudly
As she passed me by
Girl,
You look like Marilyn Monroe
Glamorous through my eyes
Her shirt was black
With spaghetti straps
And a white tee underneath
Tight beige pants
Turning heads, causing cramps
I hear someone grinding teeth

OH, 
That's me!!!!!

Premium Member TGIF

Oh what a week,
I am so glad Friday's here
there's been a bit of chaos
but today brings good cheer

Not sure how it happened
in the blink of an eye
but the weekend ahead
gives me joy, I won't lie!

So, pull up your boot straps
and get ready for work,
because today is Friday,
and you can't shirk work

Premium Member Life and Footwear

Booties on tiny feet
                                                           
Skipping in new white tennies

Wobbling in first high heels

Gliding in wedding slippers
                         
Chasing kids in sensible flats

Arthritic fingers and velcro straps

...   No shoes needed in the after- life

Velvet straps

Blushing blooming flower
red blue full of desire
she lays still 
pouring slowly 
spill
drips of love
holding tights and latex gloves
she makes it easy
but hard to breath
slowly letting out
with ease
pushing further into night
like heros fighting unlikely frieghts
she wonders home
step one two three
leaving me here 
breathing slowly

Premium Member Watch Me Run From the Fuzz

My purse is sheer seventies, with sassy swinging fringe.
Cut from flowered leather straps – pink and yellow on white leather.
I feel seventeen when I wear it.
Listen to seventies music – Beach Boys, Beatles, Mama Cass. 
I am sassy too, driving over ninety miles an hour now.
Putting the pedal to the metal. 
Getting my groove on.
Uh-oh.
Watch me run from the Fuzz!

Carnival

Grasp the anguish, of the dank do-

Gooder, bursting across

The local track.  Kids bored silly

Outside the school, sneer as

She slips past.  The brassy broad clings

In the wind to her hat,

As shoulder straps preclude her sack

From sinking, she is an-

chored by her leather bag, the last

Treasure she can hold fast.

Since the rain washed away the mirth

Of the carnival day.

Rediscovering and Reinventing Life

I untied the straps of my mysteries,
I undid the braids of my misfortunes,
I started playing my forgotten song...
I tied and knotted the bag of sorrows,
I revived the memories of the adventures,
I found the keys to my portals,
I ignited my holy lights...
i burned in a strong fire
my anxieties,
I gathered my faces from the mirrors,
I stripped myself of all worst omens,
and ran to live a novel life!

Premium Member The Final Veil

Eyes opening;
Gaze slowly focusing;
White sheet covering;
A cold body quivering.
Icy shallow inhales;
Straps binding loosely;
Unable to move or speak;
Yearn for eternal rest.
Forcing another breath;
Strength so very weak;
Free of all addictions;
Search for a final veil.
Pitted face; rotted flesh;
As I slip into the void,
Of this endless black.
Forgotten in the morgue,
just needle me to death.

Diffrent

I am different,
In many ways,
Clothes,
Thoughts,
Drawings,
Friends,
My clothes are different,
In many ways,
Black,
Chains,
Straps,
Baggy,
My thoughts are different,
In many ways,
Drugs,
Sex,
Suicide,
Murder,
My drawings are different,
In many ways,
Dark,
Depressing,
Sad,
Twisted,
My friends are different,
In many ways,
Preps,
Jocks,
Goths,
Nonsocial,
	I am me.
				I am different.

Mollie Bag

Zippers and Velcro and snaps and straps
nylon loops are found everywhere
pockets there are of every size
pockets in pockets can be found

flags of black hang upside down
holding meanings that are not found
over shoulders diagonally hung
made to fit over either one

covered with tools of every kind
stuck in loops and on Velcro  hung
swinging on straps as they walk
ringing softly with tinkling sounds

Premium Member Be Dazzling

~Be Dazzling~

Who wants to grow old?
Shivering alone, in the cold,
Beneath an old oak tree?
Not my bag of tea.
Refusing to age, so ungracefully,

Don shoes, gold,with straps,
A beautiful magenta dress, perhaps?
Sparkling jade necklaces that glitter.
Auburn tresses that equally shimmer.
Setting a man's soul...aquiver!

Spider's Purse

a dizain

Admire her casting, lines of silky floss;
survey as artist drafts her masterpiece.
Enclosing space invisibly across,
then single-handedly, she will increase
the center parts to form unseen valise.
A purse of unsuspected, vicious taint -
its straps in hand, she naps - a wily feint.
Artistic beauty flows, but will soon ebb,
when tender insects clutter her restraint.
Artiste awakes to wealth within her web.
