Rats In Ties

Dollars and consensus,
Violate our senses,
A symbol condenses,
Our spirit's presence, 
For paper worth less than a cent is.

two children chest-tight
these ties to her life severed
in no man’s land
fruit plucked from family tree
overdose of suffering

Strong Love Ties

In my life I broke all  the ties
to break out the prison of tight
now that i i held you in my heart
where no one will put us apart

Premium Member Old Ties

The oldest of friends will always remain as truest of friends.
Although sadly sometimes some of us can never be all too sure 
If you'll ever truly have chances to see them again.

Merco press combines economic and political
I fail to see how? it can be truly analytical.'
Its zone is grey at very best' any claim to 
Equal reporting must be put to the test.!

Suits and Ties

Why is it that men in suits and ties 
Tell some of the world’s biggest lies
Nurturing their business affairs 
Befriending loser billionaires
All while another innocent person dies.

Premium Member Breaking Ties

We’re sitting across from each other 
thoughts racing, anticipating 
the anguish of breaking ties 
clinging to futile hope 
maybe try again  
one last kiss, 
a last hug
part ways

Can'T Tear These Ties Between Us

sadness swells
beneath the skin
oozes out of eyes
waterfalls
cascades
confides in all;
they call for
assistance 
(not able)
shadowed instances
nostalgic defeat
tearing bites from rays of light
lament; repeat

Heart Matters

An heart is a handy thing to have
except when its not -
Hands are of course handy as a glove
Except for ties that knot.

Family Ties

Scratch
but not sniff.

Such exile
undoubtedly
Tickles my fancy.

Until I gave
birth to insanity.

Without surrender
and freshness we
can only desert
familiarity.

Invisible Ties

Time and time again I loved you.
In this lifetime
I know you only by sight
like the river
who knows the way to the sea.

Love travels mystic planes
seeking to find and chronicle
that magic moment
when two spirits reach karma
and abide.

TIES OF LOVE AND LIFE



       
- ''Our strong ties are eternal,'

       we are never loose...

  pulsating rhythm of before and after,

     happiness in total trust

    perfect harmony and light

    intense duet like Nirvana

 "pleasure in maximum expression"
Form: Ballade

Breaking Ties

Rich laughter
shallow tears
rivers of unknowing
and oceans of forgiving
anger, frustration,
     sadness.

Long goodbyes,
cool goodnights
sadness, frustration,
     anger.

Oceans of forgiving
rivers of unknowing,
shallow tears
and rich laughter.

Broken Ties

closed your eyes and heart
faked the kiss right from the start
now it falls apart
why are you surprised
look back trying to surmise
love built upon lies
now severed and broken ties
tears that you won't cry
hold it all inside
no more schemes you can devise

BIG SISTER

You were big sis 
Who was full of fire
With large sparks 
Of life, you loved and 
Lived life to the fullest
You could have been
A comedian with your
Constant jokes and laughter
But you were taken away
From me, like a thief
In the night, never to return

Ties Not Broken

I see love between mother and 
son.
Love that can never be undone.
Ties not broken with life gone.
Earth, Heaven together.
Feel the life, dream the death.
They both shine as one.
Son surrounds the
Living mom.
Love lives
On.

Loosed From Ties That Bind

Secrets should always be easily shared.
Interaction rather than causation, 
Unbridling the soul of all ties once aired.  
No need for vigilant calculation,
Intent on seamless communication.
Just being with others in the moment,
A genuine, life-giving, bestowment.

What Are the Ties That Bind

What are the ties that bind you
Is it family, friends or places too
Are these the things that you dream of now 
When your head lays down to dream how 
How and when you will see the all again 
When the smile on your face becomes a special friend.

Those Ties That Should Bind

Those Ties That Should Bind

Those ties which should bind
Had left all of them behind;
None now can I find.

Was thinking about Honest Abe
and having to bind all of the
railroad ties. If it was Trump,
he would have ended all tied
up on his very own business.

Wind Blown Eyes Wind Blown Ties

My second wind of honesty
Renewing vows with poetry
Honestly, something's calling me
Telling me
All the things that hinge on the precipice of destiny
Hug me please,
Hold my knees
Wiggle doubt and grant me peace
That will ease,
Every ounce in me
Pour me tea,
For an eternity

She Ties Ribbons Around the Stars

When they're at their peek of brightness

She ties ribbons around the stars

She's been told by some, they like this

Highlighting who it is they are

Outside she spends her evenings

At the edge of her front yard

Reaching into the constellations

Tying ribbons around the stars

My Country Ties of Thee

***********

My Country was Born
           Not,
In the Heat of BATTLE
            But,
    Over a Cup of Tea'
   In the city of Boston
              And then,
They brought in Coffee
          -- Fore ---
A country of this Magnitude
    Would never again'
         Sleep at Night
