gecko's eyes swivel
to the right edge of the wall 
ushering in rain...

Floating embers swivel golden flames go up 
towards marked enclaves a midnight sky 
skywards and onwards the stars and moon await...

The overkill of rainstorm
with threat of life and limb; trees
swivel, sway, dancing, falling
with wake of devastation rising.

Scribble down those madding
     Sharp scars of a cut
On those sliced, finish-manufactured lumber
     So you can make some sense of it all.

Note: It's a note....

Mick Jagger

Mick Jagger has two rubber lips,
His body is made of elastic,
Swivel and swerve those ageing hips,
Replaced from recycled plastic.

Washington & Adams retired to their lair
Jefferson invented the swivel chair,
Taft went back to the law-
Of late,cashing-in seems the plan
Only Harry ,was a true man...

Distance cleaves us
Though we drink of the smiles
Bubbling from the corners of our lips

The colours of courtship begin to swivel
Locust echoes bloom ever so fearlessly
As fair passion sweeps through the fog...

       ~ Four-Line Limerick ~

   A soda jerk I knew at work
   offered customers an unconventional perk
 
   When he pulled the handle on the Coke
     ~ Their seats would swivel, their rear ends twerk...

Between
headland and
headland currents, strong, 
circle, swirl, 
swivel
and catapult
themselves around around.

Between 
headland and
headland the distance
never lessens
but
grows year 
by year leaving 
between them
cold 
steel
sea....

Hibiscus drooped, sheds
Petals in the gust of rain ...
A broken heart dies

Swallows swivel rain
Above water stifled grass .. .
Memories of joy

Light covers the earth
And dust make rainbows appear ...
I am that poem

Sky and tablecloth of stars....

there's only one way
straight down is all you control
so use a bobber

line through a swivel
with sinkers and lucks good bait
play out line and wait

tick tick heavy weight
a slow to reel in quick see
that breaks line and leaves

Buddy began to call his girl 'Hot Lips'
The day she started to swivel her hips --
   He let out a wolf whistle
   She French-licked his stiff thistle --
Then lasciviously kissed velvet whips

Lynne knew she wanted to burst out of her life
Onto a new stage
She wanted to sing and dance
Frolic and swivel
Learn and love
Laugh and twirl 
She wanted to throw off all responsibilities
To leave school
To start her own adventure
Where to begin
And what direction?
She bristled with excitement...

I absolutely hate it when I write drivel
I’m thinking my brain is starting to shrivel,
And nothing coming out of it appears civil
Writer’s block is making my head swivel,
Perhaps I’ll take a fetal position and snivel,
Right now, I’m feeling incredibly superficial!

Why can't I forget your name?
You swivel my head around and ignite a warmth feeling in my heart.
Surely,I cant and don't want to let go of this feeling stimulated by your presence around me.
Like Taylor swift you'll leave me with a blank space if you walk out of my life.
Stay with me like Sam Smith sings as no man is an island....

The stillness of your mind 
Moves me swift and wild 
The movement of your body 
Brings me ecstasy 

You color me like a flower 
You raise me like a tower 
Your presence is my power 
Your absence is my cower 

The swivel of your mind 
Thrills me like the lightning 
You're so sweet and so kind 
Your soul is captivating

the white bark pine
bends windwards
the west wind
roars in from the west
mercilessly flogging
flurries of snow
the white bark pine
turns away
and doesn’t want to know
it does not have to swivel
and twist through human debris
it just must ride the winter
arthritic as it is
and show up living white
in next year’s summer sun
without articulation
of twisted pain...

Love Guru

I wanna be a love guru
Clothed in white
Chemical free
empowered by endless possibilities
In a limitless sky
Exiling mortality
With its ugly realities

Yeah love guru
Creating my own truths
Walking disguised as youth
unlocking age old wisdom
Befriending the universe

Always smiling 
Spinning in a pink panther-ed swivel chair
Bare feet
Flowing kinky hair
Halo of innocence...

I twist evermore past a cotillion of meteors
Spreading plumes across unknown rhythm;
A mad swivel with myself, thrilling my essence 
In a hanging motion of a dip…I find myself alone
on the floor; my hem gathering night’s stardust.

And the saxophonist gazes at me from afar, 
he smiles,
then disappears.

“I am cold I am cold” says the flower to the windy swivel,  “go blow somewhere else or my petals will shrivel!”

“Oh please” says the swivel to the flower,  “you are but a Pansy so stop being so dour”

For a Pansy you know can always re-seed even in cold its growth will succeed. 

So be like the Pansy when life throws you lemons , just push through the storm and learn some life lessons....

Kick back,
School in full swing,
Full tilt,
Tilting off the chair,
Dye on my fingers, in my hair,
The color love, the color lust,
The color spirit, purple,
The color Obedients turn in the fall,
Lie in the swivel chair,
A computer screen in glow,
Call me a violet,
Growing in metal and cement,
Slacking off,
Looking for Ambition
I’ll start on that tomorrow…
When the sun rises and I turn red....

Flappers zoom with gentle reels of caprice
In twinkling shade coated by moonlit fleece
Roulette of wings dazzle to glaze skyline;
Enchanted, aisles of boughs play with the vine
Fireflies like jeweled dots swivel uphill
Luring a garden to rouse; what a thrill
Yellow their sheen, waxing ‘good night, goodwill’!

Woman, so fancy fair of form
  You swivel sultry past me
O, how can I weather your storm

My temperature rises
  Heart pounding apace
I check my impulse au natural
  To take up the siren chase

Like a caged lion, my insides rage
  Belie the placid countenance
Of a man of advancing age...

Then with a moan of unbridled lust
  For your body I lunge
As you dissolve into nothingness
  ~ Off night's bed have I plunged...

How could you discuss the Devil 
Sitting on a chair you swivel,
Thirty minutes pone still on Evil,
The picture your rival the Devil...

You dont reckon that he wont like it:
That he still knows how throats are slit,
 That you might  just be his next hit;
 On the news found corpse in a pit...
 
 From now learn to focus on God 
 And our God's right to Moses'Rod:
 Satan you fight like you do Todd;
 If he means to kill you a nod....

I am feeling angry like an arched back cat!!

I am feeling angry like an arched back cat!!,
Getting ready to spring in to action,
With my claws out, getting ready to rip,
With all my pent up anger inside,
My ears are like radars,
They swivel, helping me to home in effectively on my prey, 
I pounce and grab hold, however hard they try,
I can not be shaken, 
I dig my claws in for a tighter grip,
Until the very end when I get tiered....
