Singing at sweet flower throats
Stings a reminder...

winters brisk wind gloats....
how silly I look in coats
crackly raw sore throats...

bright throats sip your sweet potions

let the love birds chirp
do not slash their singing throats

Bluebells in the shady woods,
tubular throats sing the silence.
Only empty bells ring....

summer throats are dry
coconuts suicide for us
hearts fly to green life

purple irises
	seductive yellow throats
	bees hovering
	
	
	pale pink peonies
	no more butterfly kisses
	petals falling...

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

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...

There is song in birds—
Mildly, their throats: (peep peep peep)
Rouse me from deep sleep;
They perch on my window sill,
Wings tuning the glass at will....

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....

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...

hidden anguish wails

  dangling on throats of cold love...

    numb midnight    vacant

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....

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...

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.

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...

Hot 
Chocolate 
And sore throats

Gloves
And snagged sweaters 
With lace

Old friends
New friends
And snow men

The roast forgotten 
In the oven
Again

Swamp Bird (Pleiades)

Swamp lands are home of the
Stake-drivers, Bitterns, whose
spring songs sound like striking
stakes with hammers.  Bitterns
swallow air-gulps causing
swelling throats. Expelled air
sounds like loud pumps pumping....

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...

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...

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!...

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...

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...

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...
