Premium Member Vengeance Is Sweet

Vengeance worms in its way
after art of submission falls prey
Bass slap riff and chords ring funky, 
beats that warm the brass monkey

Another Submission

Another submission
of day breaks transition.
Your speaking in tongues now
i hear a gargled transmission.

I waited for too long,
on this planet I call home.

Lush dreams

Horse Play

Cornered in a vulnerable position;
kicked and pummeled into submission.
That mad horse had its way,
I lay dazed on the hay,
but am found in a stable condition.

Submission To Sloth

Submission to the sleeping lion 
Seeing his shadow as a place to lie in 
The darkness of eternal obscurity and sin 
Not unveiling our bright star clothed in skin

Premium Member Lass

Lass, 
	Unblemished by submission, 
	Familiar beyond Miss, 
	Unshadowed your smile, 
	Your modesty of kiss, 
	Love's early morning -
	Yet to come the sun-clear day.

Goofy Me

In my flower garden everyday,
Sun verily shines it's bright rays.
I dance, I sing!
I add some zing.
To the jaded flowers, what say?

The golden leaves of autumn place imprints in the soft ground,
as brittle naked limbs invite the coming frost in submission,
and winter creeps upon footprints of autumn without notice

Submission

This sheet of blinding paper
that's pasted to my face,
this mask that bars my ability to reason,
it scabs my eyelids and
drowns my name,
a constant reminder
of my unwilling demise.

Premium Member Leaving

Leaving

slowly 
imperceptibly
at first
a syllable
a vowel
a verb
slips away.

unnoticed
in the flush 
of discovery

each submission 
says goodbye

already you  are gone.
