Short Swerving Poems

Unrelenting rains
Tap upon these window panes
Swerving through these lanes...

Turning,
Merging,
Braking,
Swerving.
Dreaming
of a 
different
life,
a different
place,
a different
time.
Blinking,
Blaring,
Crashing,
Burning.

How did I get here?...

God Placed A Curse

So what could possibly be worser that worse,
And over entire countryside all of it disperse;
Started swerving;
Was unnerving;
On Trump family God had placed a curse.

Sparkles of faerie wings flit past the pink tulips
Sweeping and swerving, frisky faerie flips
Daffodil is jealous of this marvelous mythical attention
Pokes fun at floral’s spring gardening convention...

Republicans Self-Serving and Unnerving

Republicans are not straight  and swerving,
And always have proved to be self-serving;
Never savior;
Poor behavior;
Trying our patience while being unnerving.

Car speeding, swerving
as it's approaching the big, red sign.

The voice in my head defies traffic laws,
knowing I should stop,
yet I continue on,
seeking euphoria,
swerving a bus.

Little do I realise a cop is watching......

Observe Your serve,
When you're on the last nerve,
Your mind Leaves the preserve,
Swerving into Emotional reserves,
Be sure to observe what you serve,
As you swerve into a dangerous curve,
You may get something you don't deserve.

the most direct line to heaven ~ is to circumvent hell on the way 

but will they admit you ~ for seeing the devil and swerving away 

said the millionaire to his driver ~ who put his foot down anyway

The sky `s their scene
Banquet theirs in blue
Swerving arcs of black serene,
Black shrapnel of an angel`s song.

A dance of life itself
Relentless unremitting
Screaming songs of joy.

All creatures great and small.
Small nothings lshowing us the awe....

Go on your way
My beloved daughter,
turn aside from the swerving path;
untangle your gaze
to center on Christ.
Stand in courage,
hugging wisdom.
Protect your thoughts
leaning upon pureness of the heart,
release what's behind
and you shall walk on in joy....

Living, feeling, driving
V-5
Danger for death
I - What - Feeling
It comes ...
Reputation, hungry stands.
Swerving BMW
Exhaust suck off
Predicting circumfrence, location, pointage
Fidgeting, remembering
Top-Form, what I martial kick you is safety...
Death....

Swerving into a foreseen disaster?
This world seems to be moving faster.
Can't remember to forget to worry...
Time isn't slowing, so we seem to hurry.
Feeling crazy and confused,
While they all seem to be amused.
Should we try or walk away?
From all the words we want to say....

the base soaked with pee
the devils tree

the stream traveled down 
to the roots 
in the ground 

hands turning black 
this haunting is whack 

lightning struck 
what the  

swerving off the road
the fear growed 

in the past 
lives didnt last

hung from the tree 
now filled with pee

the devils tree...

Shorelines toss her sweet sensation
with saucy flair, sealing fresh soil
of a season’s shape, so divine;
where songs submit to a bird notes' smiles.
My, show stopper swerving a gait
To slowly slip by…secretly.

Reference points in any circumstance
can be the wheel of east, west
north and south---
hourglass of my soul, where do I now cross
the road of life that leads me to the
unknown?
And so I head to this venial, mortal path
in a pace swerving from
doubt to wisdom.

The eastern sky is smiling 
As the blue begins to fade 
Darkness creeps into the eve' 
Like a willow masked in jade 

Hues of red and orange 
Brighten up the moon 
As if the sky was all lit up 
By a giant white balloon 

As I sit and watch the wings of bats 
Swerving through the sky 
I'd paint a forever smile...on the moon 
If only I could fly...

My mind has gone crazy
i feel high like i could touch the sky,
i think i might like
it just feels so right
maybe i might
I'm not going to lie
sometimes i ask myself
am i
will i
can i
should i
but am i ready?
is my mind steady?
but my thoughts are swerving like two cars moving side to side
and then CRASH!
your mind just go blank
you quit
it's whatever...

The arch she holds is quite Roman 
The barrel of my pistol is elongated 
Click---Click---Bang; the race has begun 
Swerving, maneuvering, and dodging 
Joined at the hip on the last lap
Cramps begin to set in 
Only one will survive 
With her intuitive mind she turns right,
leaving me left 
Breaking the finish line tape dramatically 
Welcome to the winner's circle...

I have another crush.
Of the female variety 
to be exact. It seems my 
mind just won't let me 
push these feelings to
the back. I have no pop up 
blocker to avoid swerving in 
and no warning signs. Just pure
feelings, pure desire. Pure want. 
I crush again and again with no 
sense of the outcome or end. 
All I know is here I go again
down the road of supposed sin....

Swirling waves along the sea
Swerving leaves among the trees
 Gliding petals through the gardens
 Climbing over giant mountains
 Stumbles and falls over the rocks
Through the road we run across
Hiding when it falls to darkness
Shining in the morning light
Ready when its time to fight
Running when we are going to cry
Asking God for our forgiveness
Before its our time to die...

Bleating 
Whisps,
Chattering 
Papyruses,
See as they 
wave their 
Happy 
hands 
to you and 
the wind,
Swerving 
in 
consortium 
to my Jazz 
and Waltz,
Aha! 
waltzing it 
by the 
rushes.. 
Their 
Brushes,
Are they 
Belles or 
Gents,
Are these 
ones Fellas 
or Brutes,
The good 
guy or 
your comic 
villian,
To Egypt, 
Paper and 
This Salient 
Page.
Selah...

cool clear chilly night 
the moon glows so big and bright... 
the owls out tonight 

circling in the sky 
bats swerving so way up high... 
the hooter's- now fly 

golden eyes in trees 
flapping wings soar in the breeze... 
dinner for two, please

Breaking my chains
    expanding horizons
  swerving past roadblocks
    escaping cages I once died in

  A wayward wind now guides me
    tousling my thinning hair
  Beads of sweat blind my conscience
    evaporate in nightmares 

  Landing softly on a riverbank
    where beauty's swept downstream
  It matters not where the current takes me
    ~ only that I follow the dream...

Days gone by lost souls awake
New beginnings rise like the sun
Brightness fills the eyes
 Of those who wandered aimlessly

With new hope they arm themselves
Well aware of the struggles ahead
 Swerving not once toward the easy path again
But standing firm on their new beginning

Fighting the good fight proud and true
 Win lose or draw lost souls are found
Lost souls are made new...
