Premium Member Vignette-Sound Bite

The sun was high
Throats were burning dry,
The wagons circled round,
Hearts began to pound-
It's too quiet....was the prophetic sound.

Downpour

The cloud's, throats of water
One against the other collide
Spitting out a torrent
On earth leaving a fright
And after,  a calmness wide

Fowled Up

A chicken farmer named Bob Coats
fed abnormal things down chickens’ throats.
No bad effects were visible
but Bob became miserable
when his chickens laid eggs minus yolks.

Gog and Magog

Step out of the way or get crushed
Here they come 
The mighty Gog and Magog

Wild men with hideous faces 
Forever at each others throats
Manners of wild beasts and eaters of blood

Premium Member When Anguish Wails

hidden anguish wails

  dangling on throats of cold love...

    numb midnight    vacant

A Sip Of Life

A sip of life
Each takes.
Listen! Parched throats, from puddles.
Hen's. Drake's.

Ah! Easy hurt
Are you.
Who can, off a fern's leaf-fall
Glug, glug
Tree frog, less gross of mouth slug
Hear too.

The Eagle

The Eagle

Fair flowers
Among the rocks
Flora of sorrow
Butterfly winged
In the breeze.
On a tree
A crow throats 
A warning.
An eagle soars
In its claws
A white rabbit.
It sees
Fair petals
Flying 
In the breeze

Waterfall

Language of love
cacophony,
words
mumbling'stumbling,rumbling
soft  
   over
       ruffians
                throats,
and the waterfall pools
in ripples in transcient soul basins
ambrosia for the thirsty god of love.

Marching

Road.
Endless.
Allow one to be carried by the mob.
Swept away.
Blind fate.
When tired,
they replaced.
But not us.
Chilled,
the bone.
Throats,
parched.
Out of breath 
we,
pressed on.

Finite Reach of Terms

The pinnacle source
We strain to unfurl
The mind pulls apart

Seams of iron stand
Accrued throats of steel
Hammered against raw will

But the energy breaks with season
As moods uncovered what went
Secretly finite, scrawling new terms

Premium Member the hummingbirds - CM

soon to appear
the hummingbirds ...
so sweet and dear

their wings in green
red ruby throats ...
flutter with Sheen

feisty and fun
they zip and zag ...
never undone

they will be gone
if you get close ...
but not for long

Premium Member Verbal Fists Flying

    the public thoroughfare
      pummeled, profaned
    verbal fists rumble from 
      amped-up throats...  

    a generation or two
      with nothing better to do
    than scream at the intersection 
      of decline and decay

It Seems

it seems
the seams
are coming undone

each little loop
loosening
as the threads
slowly unravel
around us

all we can do
is hang on
to this little piece
of hope
dangling
by the knot
forming
in our
throats
as we pray
for a cure

War

First - demonstrations and resolutions,
Followed by drones and groans,
Soon the nation mourns 
Her land ruined, her youth slain,
Democrats and patriots  
At each other's throats,
All gone insane - for there is no solution
The nation is at war!

The Room

A beautiful sun floats on the horizon 
Signifying a rising joy
Blades of grass graze by
Our smiles become so coy

Clouds sweep in,
The grass gets stuck in our throats 
We turn away and close our eyes
The sun is drowning and it begins to choke

My Dying Days

i wish they were here
i don't mean to speak blasphemy
but the truth is
i got nothing to live for
except my talent
my money is gone
plus my friends are too busy to listen
to a man who used to run beer through their throats
and then they would sing, together

Without Loves Foible Loaves

October doormat  I have been unenduring
Hear my heartbeat
Raindrops falling
Jack frost appearing
Old man laying out his laundry
Sometimes I feel so low
Where are my ideals?
Purring love down purring throats
without loves strength
without loves foible loaves

Bully

you pick on the innocent
pray on the weak
leave the unwanted in your dust
harming all in your path

they go home
bruised and beaten
filled with tears
a lump in their throats

still breathing
still a love in their hearts 
yet they have more strength
than you ever will

Premium Member Quacking Frogs


Frogs are boisterously loud
   quacking  their throats, they feel male-proud
         a stern warning to shoo
                 will invite crazed cuckoo …
so, no big bug meal was allowed

A Small Fanfare of Delight

Daffodils march around an oak tree
fanfares from buttery throats,
yellow notes flutter as light
as butterflies.

Pond circling a pool of sunlight,
ducks circling the sun,
a child's red kite tugs
at invisible strings,
                      I let go of the sky.

Premium Member Nothing

The doctor said it is nothing
Well my nose is leaking
My throat is sqeaking
I am so tired that I am sleeping

My back hurts throats does too
Food taste yuch and flat as unseasoned stew
How long will it take to restore
My body from this viral store

(Funny but not)

The vice

Two carbon entities
exhale green miasmas
and throttle white throats
in a noose of iron.
The cored captives
diaphanous and rasping
plummet to frightful circles
where sardonic wraiths
gnarl wingèd flesh
in screeching packs
as time loops reverberate
manic and mindless.

I Can Sing: But, Can'T Play An Instrument

Lives, pears, pair-ed, peered, Structured.
Leaves, fashions, untouched.
Hearts rests on-ed silvered platters.
Fingers noticed ,less, much-ed.
Then-ed
Throats and tongues!
Captures cleft-ed flowers!
String---ed audiences reasoned.
When"s
Somethings undoubted-ly"ed Borrowed!!
