Your hardness deepens,
Lusts essence flowing within,
My knotted rope tightens.
(c) 2015 PJ Bayliss
My heart beats faster
My lips tingle excitedly
My eyes glimmer
My hold tightens
My kiss deepens
His expression grows warmer
Took a dosage of music.
Now shedding tears as my chest gently tightens.
Not enough to end me.
But just right amount to make me feel so numb.
scarlet cardinal laboriously tightens nest
leaf colors dazzle
November smiles at diverse colors
Flows into her redness as naturally
As December sprinkles white
Stick a band-aid on it, patch it up
Say I'm sorry, it'll go away...
Next time it happens, you'll know what to do
The very same thing -- what tightens the screw
The British Petroleum
Oil slick
She tightens
The grip
Like a boa constrictor
Surrounding the flesh of
The Mexican Gulf and
From head-to-toe
She swallows
It all
Angst
Pressure
Tension Builds
Nerves Tautly Wound
Stomach's Knot Tightens
Imminent Deadline
Boss's Threats
Pressure
Angst
our fontanel pulsates
we pause to listen
to whispers of God
sensed as bliss strobes
love’s embrace tightens
our soul yields
breathing in the elixir
of heavenly delight
Enveloped in black
Darkness of a living death
The black shroud tightens
Heightened frenzy of thrashing
Pinned in the arms of Black Knight

Tender toes,
Treading tentativly,
Taking time,
Trying tactfully.
Tendons tremble,
Tension tightens,
Tilting, Twisting,
Tripping, tumbling!
Terror. Trouble.
Touching totality.
Tomorrow. taken.
Bridging the gap…
hate falling away
Into the chasm,
fate tightens the stays
Forging two armies,
to now fight as one
Entreating their union
—Saint Michael has come
(Villanova Pennsylvania: August, 2020)
My senses are more intense than usual
My throat tightens
My jaws ache
My eyes well up for tears
Why? Why do I feel like crying?
Can’t anyone see I cannot hold the world up for everyone?

Have tightens the necklace around his neck to kill the pain.
Empty bottles, and smoke fills the room.
The one he loved left, with his heart.
Now he breathes a sigh of relief.
As the pain he's felt falls to the ground.
When i watch you sleep
i can tell you're not hurting.
i see how peaceful you look.
I realize then, how much i love you,
my heart drops,
my stomach tightens,
and my body collapses.
That feeling,
is what i live for.
Icy darkness tightens its embrace.
Flailing, thrashing, clawing, waning;
implacable liquid death
threatens to overwhelm.
Grasped by unseen hands;
propelled upwards.
Surface breached!
Sweet, sweet
air!
a shiver down my spine
alerts me of a sign
something isn't right
will i die tonight
every day my stomach tightens
and everything around me frightens
don't tell me it isn't how i feel
I'm telling you now this is for real
Form:
Barks of frustration and irritation
Man, their counterpart, shall not be moved
At an impass, tension slowly tightens
The stalemated similarity between different species
Listening is not a choice in this debate
Just another adventure at the dog park
the noose of fate tightens
even as time slows
and space lengthens
such interpretations of mind
fickle, unsound, temperamental
are politely declined
be it instinct, be it reason
if we choose to indulge in thought
it is against soul’s light treason
Always there, something that I dread;
Tired of emotional bloodshed;
Tightens and unravels the thread
inside my head, inside my head;
Keeping a serene habitat,
grabbing a close friend for a chat
quick to lower your thermostat;
Imagine that, imagine that.
Her beauty surpasses the most majestic of scenes
Her laughter resounds like a rolling sea
My throat tightens at the thought of losing her
Her smile brightens the most tepid of days
With her I’ve learned “I Love You” in a million ways
She is my daughter, the love of my life.
The sky is clear
the air bracing
Yet streets are empty
social distance spacing
Fear grips our hearts
keeps loved ones apart
A deluge of dark news
tightens the screws
But wait: What is this
I heard some good news
Dare I repeat it ~
If they let me, I would
Bliss throbs wow, if we but allow
Obstructing not the flow
Ego disavow, let love plough
Rapture, we alone know
Load on our mind lightens
Magnetic heat brightens
Energy grid tightens
Don’t ask how
Bliss throbs wow

Quietus
A vaper does not really care
If anyone can breathe fresh air
With flavoured dung
Dusting a lung
They're happy just to have a spare!
Vaping delights their lungs and blood
Like blowing smoke as thick as mud
Repeated use
Tightens the noose
Until their heart can't beat the crud.
machinations of life
exert a stranglehold
as the noose tightens
we choose to vaporise
whence fate as may be
is rendered innocuous
thus in, within but not of
earth life play underway
with our ego immanent
presence transcendent
~
we have the cake
and eat it too
Doctor blinks, breath caught, face goes still.
“Oh,” he says, voice sharp, split.
Hands tremble near charts, numbers all wrong.
Room spins quiet, cold like a grave.
Chest tightens, heartbeat thuds, loud, slow.
How long have I lived this broken?
Sick laughs die. Fear lives in bone.
