For the want of a tighter screw!"

Holding on to a dream
Holding on ever tighter
Holding on—holding me

and sew your clothes tighter. My closet's infested with these parasites.

Oh come on baby, stare at me and my naked body.
Come and hold me closer, tighter in your arms as you thrust deeply.
Oh come on baby, make love to me so passionately.

The tighter I curl, the more open I feel,
The looser your grip, the tighter the seal.
The harder I cry, the sadder I seem,
The better I lie, the more truth is seen.

Did Take Another Slip
When ship over started to flip,
On floor did take another slip;
Wobbled a bit,
And had to sit;
Then on God did get tighter grip.

May Our Father embrace you?
Even tighter as you walk alone the way
On this trouble old world
Let us pray His will

outstretched, her moan paused
tighter her shapes in capture
silken ropes more taught
excitement arises I
unification now met

Is my life quite kooky?
Does seem rather spooky!
Tighter than a high-strung cat
What about nerves? Get rid of that!
Yet somehow I made it through
Become baptized you can too!

I look far ahead and wonder wheres my next instruction
Shivering softly in the breezy openness
I clasp my shawl around me tighter

leather feather straps
Its fine relax

Escape from Tape Rape
With much energy was quite an escape,
From what can be called the Tape Rape;
Nails now tighter;
Knuckles whiter;
Trump with the law had another scrape.

Language
is required
to go insane
The beasts of
the forest
politely refrain
Words
ever forming
into a net
Trapping
insanity
—the tighter they get

Squeeze a little tighter
the therapist said at the rehab
a tear drop fell at the corner
of her eye
as she smiled
For Julia Ward’s Rehabilitation contest.

We're in a cold, lonely paradise called love
Each fight hits harder
Each cold word crueler
But each kiss warmer
And each embrace tighter
Love can be bitter
But it can also be all that is good!

Spools for a day.
Wound up with what they say.
Tighter and tighter.
The insanity won't go away.
A year or two marinating.
Chaos has won.
Then the spring becomes undone.

Wrapped around the pillar of humanity
As it slithers up it coils tighter and tighter
It's length spreads a warmth that is all too inviting
A paralyzing euphoria
Left unsuspecting
the snap is surprising

Dia De Los Santos
On all Saints Day I’m impressed to see
Old Ford’s, cherry bombs and Chevy’s
In support of Dia De Los Santos
Together peacefully ever so tighter

Your lips will be my Downfall,
I think I lose a bit of my soul when you kiss me slow,
Hug me tighter as I draw my last breath,
Because your touch will be the end of me.

The heaviness of heart lifts.
I want it gone, but I hold it tighter still.
Crashing through me, knocking me down, picking me up.
It needs to go, it has to.
Lost to love, feeling our hearts fade.
You are gone.

He holds his little
boy's hand so tight,
that there is no fear
of losing him again,
after so long
The boy,
no longer little
looks down and squeezes
back, tighter
and thinks
Fear no longer, Daddy
I'm home

Ha!
Captured!
finaly a moment of peace,
a moment of sleep,
a moment of rest.
He is rechained
This time
stronger and tighter chains
and a cage to go with it.
The battle is over
I rise victorious
I have won.
For now.

Another notch tighter on my belt
Without trying, getting skinnier and quite svelte
Can wishing make it so
Though the progress is slow
Perhaps age contributes... not sure if that helps

Floating in emptiness
Cold like ice
All around pettiness
Feels just right
Grip grabs tighter
It's falling apart
Look the outsider
With bleeding heart
Finally it's silent
Lasting for eternity
Finally, finally silence
Looking for harmony
