Brimstone's red glow, hot
Burning sulfur rising up
into the sunset

Heaven lights up
                                     Air is filled with sulfur odor
                                           Beautiful fireworks

Valley of despair,
eager, burns eternal flames,
delivering souls.

Loathsome lake of fire,
choking forth ash and sulfur,
swallowing the damned.

Cursed, unholy ground,
biblical euphemism,
forge of wickedness.

Hell

fiery flames above 
a pool of sodden sulfur ~
sorry souls in blaze 

dire spirits shout loud 
extreme excruciation ~
echoes endlessly

Artha

Her tongue is made of sulfur
Mud drowns the fields
Fine sand billows over deserts
Soil sprinkled over graves
Blood and sweat for charcoal
Swallowed tears, for potter’s clay
Niter, mortar, a vessel
To give birth, and to slay


Storm

I can feel the thunder
see the lightning in your eyes
as this storm is raging
riding passion in the night
like a candle burning at both ends
strike a match the sulfur ignites
smell the heat
taste the honey
as it burns into the night

When the Devil Cries

never perfect but hidden in a universe of dark angels he sits on the thrown of evil burnt sulfur skin maggots and flies rum colored eyes when the devil cries God knows he tried his biggest mistake when fire and brimstone tears rolls down his face

Premium Member Ukrainian Spring

We watch from afar. We wring our hands
seeing the treachery of our governments
who do nothing, as if it is 1941 again.

finally!    He’s home
candy bag on the table
he empties it out
sugar content enormous!
and    with one brown    crinkled leaf

cool    just a light frost
and the goblins are playing
for it’s Halloween
my doorbell rings    No one there
smell of sulfur in the air

Torment

torment, torture, burn in hell
all of these things locked within this cell
I scream, I cry, the echoes yell
the more I purge..the more that dwell

I thought that only time would tell
still that scent, the sulfur smell
I see this yon...a very long spell
drenched, I drown in this deep well

Echo

And the echo grew stronger, not weaker
as I sat on the ledge next to the waterfall,
your head cradled in my lap
until even our skin shook with the sound.
I covered your ears for you as we watched
the sulfur turn clear water to rusty orange.
I smoothed back your hair
but waiting for you to speak.

My Girl

The dragon rears its head,
I remember these teeth
I remember this breath
this sulfur.

In the teeth I recall,
The last time I faced this
I kissed you gently on the head
And said I would miss you.

I saw you there,
in those feverish dreams as I
wrapped the moth-worn linen
and tried to sleep on the stones.

Premium Member Breast Feeding

I still remember when the tiny ones would
latch on and suck themselves into comfort 
relieve my swelling, too.

I still remember their faces when
visual stimuli met oral yearning
so completely.

Those nasty nasal onslaughts 
who cared? For my lil sugars
were so dear I'd have drowned in sulfur before
forgoing the blue snot bulb.

The Alchemist Plumber

Heavy metals make you dumb.
Arsenic, Gold, Plumbum.

Those metals take from the dome.
Why not try nickle, iron, or chrome?

Chlorine, sulfur, and radon will take away your breath.
Carbon, nitrogen, and hydrogen can make meth.

While mercury, zinc, and copper were known to the boomers,
lithium, silicon, and titanium were just late bloomers.

Match

random matches in a book
the cover closed when lighting
pulling across the striking surface
sulfur catching and igniting

smoke lifts from the once cool head
the flame burns hot and high
combustion from the chemicals
consuming all close by

breath softly extinguishes
after it's abated
intensity has burnt itself out
cooling once exhausted

Roman Candle

I woke up this morning
pent-up as a Roman candle.

All it would take is a spark
for ideas to shoot like fire into the sky.

My life to this point
has been ground down to combustible powder
and packed tightly inside the cylinder of my being.

I'm waiting 
for a flicker to touch the fuse of my brain.

Stench of sulfur,
Someone just lit the match.

Premium Member The Gang of Six

Listen to poem:
In nature's design, six is the key to all life alive.
Hexagons in petals, snowflakes, and beehives thrive,
In music, blues and roots groups play the six-stringed guitar.
With songs made with a hexatonic blue note, added to each bar.
Six key chemical elements there when life first sprang
Were the notorious Carbon, Hydrogen, Nitrogen, Oxygen, Sulfur, Phosphorus gang.

Premium Member Clover Leaf Thing

at age 12

Chigger bites, mighty small, are no fun.
Hard to see, they will bite any one.
Get bit on that thing,
laughter it will bring,
when it swells like a clover leaf bun.

A hot tub, a long soak and you rant.
The sulfur smells horrid I will grant.
Visiting, the kin,
trying to get in,
but the one gets a look is my aunt.

Another Way Out

SO HERE I AM ONCE AGAIN...
LOOKING FOR A WAY OUT.........
IM BATTLING THIS DEMONIC SIN....
LOOKING, PRAYING FOR ANOTHER ROUTE....

A DEMONS TALONS TEARING AT MY BACK...
I TRY AND SHAKE HIM OFF...
HE HAS A WELL PLANNED ATTACK....
AND THE SULFUR.MAKES ME COUGH.....

I FEEL THE FIRE...
IT BURNS DEEP IN MY SOUL.....
WATER CAN ONLY  QUINCH MY DESIRE....
ONLY THEN, CAN I GAIN CONTROL.........

Of Ashen Hues

Drinking in ink
Black of raven eyes
I spy a Stars demise
Racing to Razor edge of reality
Somethings are lost in my gloom
The burn of sulfur looms
Their coming doom
The reek of things left undead, unseen
With jaded eyes and thorns of onyx black
My thoughts are cold and burned in the blast
My thoughts crash 
Die as they drift far far away
And only ghosts are left
Shades of yesterday.

Murder


Shadows loom at my back
Nefarious plans attack
Try to shake it off of me
Darkness clings but none can see
Tailing me all the day
Make this evil go away
Sulfur lingers on the fog
Terrified I start to jog
Breathe of hell upon my cheek
Death upon me
Knees go weak
On the icy ground I shiver
Ripping piercing through my liver
Soul is taken off the track
Shadows stab me in the back

Assaying

Sailing, 
triangulating the body. 
I will not come for the false blues.

You dig out the bones? 
to evaluate the sickle, 
that failed to trim the dark.

The murder was clean. 
A religion lies beheaded.
Anaerobic, the poem survived.

The animal smell, 
stays.Overpowers the limbs.
You run blindfolded.

The crickets emit an omen. 
A sulfur burns. 
The yellow sun was rising.

Good Luck Monsanto

my voice quakes with the gnashing of teeth, my breath sulfur and firey embers. 
beneath the weight of my powerful paws, the entire solar system strains and bruises. 
i shake with the force of a mighty wind, my ropes of fur spreading out and latching onto the plantation of the worlds on which i stand. 
and they constrict, and they choke out, and they kill off. 

i plague the system. 

my essence is satisfied; the purpose of my being.
