I’ve got a kidney stone
Trying not to moan
It hurts me deep
Trying not to weep
Sweep away the pain
Down the bathtub drain
hands to hold to touch
hands to write a thousand words
and wipe away tears
hands to embrace to caress
hands to quell sweep away fears.

Use Broom to Sweep Away Doom
What we did do with a straw broom,
Would be to sweep away our doom,
Which existed,
And persisted,
That was spread all over the room.
Jim Horn
Love for Food Does Loom
Our love for food always does loom;
For another meal we will make room,
And eat until gone,
To dusk from dawn;
Sweep away all crumbs using broom.
Jim Horn
Sweep, old lady, sweep away
the tin
din
and dust
of the day
breath as the sun sighs and
settles into the
ground
consider the satellites as they
come back
around
gather the children on the
wide fields you have
found
Sleep, old lady, come Monday
and dream
leaves flutter like butterflies,
dawdle graceful path zigzag
down, down, down beneath trees shade
long deep sighs. Settle and snag
among collaborating blades.
mutinous breeze tendrils rise drag
and sweep away the dry leaves
like wings fly and touch the sky.

Pelting shapely pebbles into the lucid lake,
Lonely, among daffodils and golden mandrakes,
And rejoicing the dance of silver flakes,
A delicate penumbra catches his fancy great,
And in a sweep, away, his heart does take.
Ruthless in love and incredible in stake,
He dives deep down,
Into his own grave.
love, an open door
a yearning we long for
no one could give you more
I showed you this before
it's really not that hard
to sweep away the shards
my key removes the bars
and heals all the old scars
truth a flame that burns
as you await your turn
each time a lesson learned
as love slowly returns
If you could
Would you take the ride
Again…
How would it be
If you could see
Those things
That now
Cut to the bone
Some things
You can’t sweep away
Whilst you await
The dawning light
Of a new day
So gather strength
And bite into leather
Survival is
The name of today’s game.

Metal bent and plastics shorn
along the street glitter adorn,
remains of combat vehicular
litter on oiled asphalt and tar.
Quickly towed, no cars remain,
Perhaps some water or other stain,
Why do they not clean up it all?
A message, perhaps of human fall.
Until the rain or employed hand
sweep away the remnants and sand.
There is happiness called life freedom
Not fighting, competing and selfishness
No plans, everything goes as planned
Easy life, live independently, peacefully.
However, sweep away the sorrow
Ignore the python, worry and plotting
Maintain balance, to keep your body and mind clean
It's all about time, everything depend on fate.

I ask to dive deep
for what purpose would it serve
to go the breadth in the swallow end
I ask to be submerged
not to test the water with my toes
not to splash when it’s at my ankles
not to be content with it at my waist
or stay safe with it at my shoulders
but to be engulfed, caught up, and sweep away with joy
I ask to drown in life
A cat up on a tree.
Watching a dog barking crazy-
Looking up-
At the tree...
The cat laughing
At the helplessness
On the ground.
The cat up on the tree.
A dog on the ground-
Unable to climb-
The cat a witness.
As the floods
Sweep away the dog.
The cat up on the tree.
Smiling.
As the dog is drown
In the water-then,
Disappearing.
sweep away the clutter
let the tide recede
wash away the grime
bare my soul, my mind
cleanse and start anew
let the winds reset
what's unwittingly askew
bird songs will return
with each rising sun
we must not despair
even when things seem
at an all time low and
never never must we think
of giving up on hope

Sweep away the past, and all
The times that brought you sorrow
Your future lies in us until
Tomorrow and tomorrow
Lock your nightmares up beyond
Some vast and solid door
I’m your knight in shining armour
And will be for evermore
Shut out your lifelong worries
All your troubles and your fears
Lay down with me my lady
I will kiss away your tears
Life Is A Brothel
Life is a brothel she says
Zipping ten centimetres up the crotch of her
Diesel jeans
How many jobs do you have to take to remove your nose
from the rotten-egg stench; how many chances do you have to give
the adjustable lighting
to sweep away for you the connections
to breath-gaps?
translated from Hebrew:
Alexa Christopher-Daniels
The scrabble app says it misses me
It sends a notification to remind me
It's lonesome without me.
Let Poirot use his little gray cells,
Let Miss Marple knit too much,
Let me just catch up.
Dust the unused corners,
Sweep away the cobwebs,
Throw out the crumbs
Of procrastination.
Poirot and Miss Marple are characters in Agatha Christie novels
The evil are coward
They come not in their colours
But often wear the masks of love
And speak the language of church
To seek entry where angels dwell.
Good to hold tight your broom
And keep your joker like inheritance
So when a Nicodemus comes to throne
And corruption becomes national anthem,
You shall sweep away the plague with one
And change the tune with the other.
My Horn Trilogy Haiku Senryu
heaven has much room
for idiots known to bloom
sweep away with broom
when God we would greet
he had knocked us off our feet
drums he liked to beat
love luxurious
about Christ am curious
now am serious
with so much sorrow
God removed from bone marrow
Son want to borrow
am often praying
God with me will be staying
my sins are slaying
"We live in a time of chaos,
not only in a world of wars,
but the war within one's self."
My mind has too many negative thoughts.
It's too noisy for my muse to be heard.
I've created a sanctuary of calm.
A place within where my soul can dwell.
I removed the harsh realities of hell.
Turning my back on my clamorous mind,
I sweep away the clutter and noise.
I can now foster my creativity within,
Embracing my reborn muse once again.
Dogwood trees are now in bloom,
jots of color in winter's gloom,
white and plum and palest pink,
against gray backdrops, out of sync.
How I love the month of March!
Like silk opposed to winter's starch.
Robins bounce across the grass,
a sign, for sure, that winter's passed.
The winds of March soon sweep away
all that's dull and brown and gray.
A child of March, I feel reborn,
as Spring flies in, on Marchwind's-borne.

Far down below it's taking
Taking away the tandroms of guilt
Pain and cries.
I have felt, seen and heard
The rocks , flowers trees big
But here, it's a tomb of joy which sweeps
Sweeping away the ridges we have built from fear
From great theft of injustice
From cries and depression
Weakness and failures
We have come to leave the ill fate
The shock of being unwanted
As the winds sway pass,
Let your, my weigh down drums
Castles and rain of pain sweep away.
Stars in the sky
Are always to high
For me to reach
Waves on a beach
Wash away my doubt
Lets my confidence sprout
Rivers sweep away anxiety
They give you a break from society
The churning water a secret lullaby
Waterfalls as they cry
Usher your not alone
That your not on your own
Colours that bleed from a a sunset sky
As the sun bids goodbye
Melt away my fear
Oh please just let me stay here
Here I can smile
Forget about my worries for a while
There’s a power in your heart equal to the magnitude of a star.
The tide of your love can sweep away all cramped torments.
The symphony of your being overwhelms the dissonance of pain.
In your hand nestles the future of your every hope.
In your brightness glimmers the promise of endless days.
So, only remember your divinity.
Try to imagine the smile of God
when he made you an angel
and gave you to his creation
as a ray of angelic love.
