Short Tauntingly Poems

Your kiss is so hot
Instantly scorching my lips
And tauntingly fiery

"I want my mom back!" She screamed.

It tore my heart out, gnawed on it, tauntingly.

Began to tear it apart at the seams.

Stitch by Stitch.

But I felt my heart burst within,

it's chewing gnaw, when I heard the lie,

"I'll stop drinking, you win."...

A fretful humble day murmurs, thoughtfully 
Midnight dives, harvest sun cavorts
With a delicate stirring through the weeds 
Squirming in rusted quality 

O' cold fall moves fiercely 
In shades of blood red in the fog 
The afore-winter moon pillars tauntingly
Whilst daylight beams the dance floor with accolades...

The Simplicity of Thought
Written: by Tom Wright
6/20/2018

Some mornings, 
Pretentious words arrive devoid of call,

Today, phrases bathe my mind, 
And then tauntingly stall.

Sub-consciously,
 I shall either embrace them, or refrain.

But both have the ability to vanish from me, 
Or remain.

Cranked a surprise with his jack in the box
            Chained stays my flower in chastity locks
                         Power down, without  T. V
                     Painful night crawled tauntingly
           Deafened by raised legs' rotate inside clocks

Your hair smells of lavender and lilac;
seductive scents designed to arouse me.
Like a tease, you tauntingly hold me back
pinning me down in a playful attack,
laughingly refusing to set me free.

A Goddess of captivating splendor
your haunting eyes peer deep into my soul,
And fueling your dominatrix role
I lie back, giving you complete control,
and submit my will to sweet surrender....

.

Kitty, kitty in my chair,
Sitting there so debonair.

Black cat with shiny eyes,
To cross your path could be unwise.

Playful feline pounces fast,
Jump on people walking past.

Tabby teases a little mouse,
Tauntingly throughout the house.

Oh! Of cats what can I say?
They prowl at night and sleep all day.

This poem is driving me crazy!
I want to get it just right!
I’ve gotten up quite early.
I’ve stayed up late at night.
It’s haunting me throughout the day.
It’s tauntingly just out of reach.
There’s a phrase I need here and there,
and it’s nagging me like a leech.
I ought to just rip it to shreds
and resume my life as before,
but I’m afraid as soon as I do,
the last line will waltz through the door!

I always liked the rain
It’s avant-garde disdain
Encased in every raindrop
Its tauntingly cold chill
Trickling off a drippy nose
Its million centipede dance steps
Puckering the dust, stirring the mud
The child like joy of running through puddles
Popsicle stick armadas attacked by giants
Mud pies with maple twig candles

I still enjoy the rain
Walk more slowly
Savoring its scent
The icy edge of its smile
Its tear like essence
Reminding me
That I now walk alone...
