Letting up

the tightest
grip
Creating
space for
credence
to stick
Room
to wander
room
to grow
Space
when sacred
truth
— to know

There was a young woman from New Orleans
who always wore the tightest fitting jeans,
but while she walked with small strides
she could not get many rides...
she had a problem from eating baked beans!

I once had a boss called Milton,
Who thought his shop was the Hilton,
He sold ancient clothes,
All full of big holes,
And always put an old kilt on.
John Milton was Scrooge – truly the tightest person I’ve ever known!

When it's your time to shine, be your brightest
Grab the brass ring and hang on your tightest
The world's at your feet
A path to your door they'll beat
Waiting for a unique approach, a sample of your latest

viscera wound tighter
than the tightest rubber ball
never mind bouncing off the walls
guts like a pinball machine
an arcade between the ears
with tilt alarms screaming

Until I sit atop a golden throne
And wear and golden crown and golden rings
On hands that take the land with divine right--
I doubt I shall rule over anything.
Our dreams are drifting clouds no hand can hold,
Our spirits slip through tightest prison bars,
And love's kingdom exists where earth meets sky--
Rich pastures I have only seen from far.

L-ove at the highest level
U-ses the strongest affection;
C-are's sweetest firepower
I-s like the strength of a
L-ion.
S-ecurity at the highest level
U-ses the Lord God's armor;
A-iming at the tightest defense,
R-emain as great spiritual warrior.
E-arly January twenty-third, hope and faith are doing well;
Z-one of complete confidence is at the highest level.

Prince and Purple Rain
Had caught the mange
Wanted to have a race change
Me did re-arrange.
No longer biased
You want to meet am nicest
With money tightest.
My hair had them rinse
Colored it purple like Prince
Have been happy since.
Life came to a halt
Songs are buried in a vault
It was all my fault.
Future of Prince's music will be fantastic.

I do not know?
This tight hold
Began when some small part of my semi-present brain said “Yes.”
Your fierce, tender, electrifying embrace is
Sometimes the cozy place I retreat to when the world jeers and
Sometimes a cold non-place I ignore
But always surrounding me.
You are always there.
In your death, you tied yourself to me,
And wherever my fragile fingers push or pull,
You are unmoveable.

unique ethereal communication
comaraderie usually reserved for troops
relaxed and reposed, blatant respect
tightest relationship either have ever had
a family of two, tiger and woman
spiritual bond beyond understanding
beyond a friendship
beyond most people's grasp
beyond most tiger's grasp
an earthy inner knowing
mystical yellow and pink aura of trust
they have each other's backs
and always will

Just languishing in la la land
holding on with the tightest grip;
That mundane day is such a trip,
ignoring a good time is banned;
A severe lifestyle becomes fanned
with the start of a grande courtship;
Just languishing in la la land
holding on with the tightest grip;
At no time knowing where you stand
can cause what is stable to slip;
You come up with a clever quip,
‘Sardanapalian’s our brand.’
Just languishing in la la land.

Now, can you catch that Dingledot?
I need to get him quite a lot.
He is the only one I’ve got.
You’ll find he’s very hard to spot.
He might be sailing on a yacht
or hiding in a carry-cot,
or staying with a hairy Scot.
He could be here – or maybe not.
And do be sure, when he’s been got,
to tie him in the tightest knot.
Why do I need a Dingledot?
I want to pop him in the pot!

Verse
In the Meadow, I hear a POP!
Drip Drop , Drip Drop!
I can't seem to hear the Clip, Clop!
So off I run with a little Hip-Hop!
In the Meadow, I hear a POP!
Drip Drop, Drip Drop!
As I near, my Heartbeat gives a Stop!
My Stomach does the tightest Flip-Flop!
In the Meadow, I hear a POP!
Drip Drop, Drip Drop!
I howl on seeing the Butcher's Shop!
Onto the Meadow grass, I Slip-Slop!
To Witness the Unbearable Chop!
Blood of my Horse, Drip Drop!

In quilting, sewing corners is
A challenge I can’t meet.
My sad attempts at mitered corners
End up in defeat.
I’m sure in every corner
Of the sewing world, there must
Be others who’ve had problems, too,
No matter how they’ve fussed.
Don’t back me in a corner,
Surely not one I have cut,
For the corner of my eye reveals
That when I’m in a rut
The tightest corner cannot hold
Some tricks that can be learned.
Forget my sewing – to the
Poets’ corner I’ve returned.

Standing on the edge of forever
walking the tightest rope
Looking down into tomorrow’s abyss
devoid of any hope
The bottom rushing toward me
if one mistake is made
A footpath to a broken dream
too numb to be afraid
My past missteps surround me
daring me to jump
Reminding of what I can’t forget
this roiling morbid funk
But one last chance is taken
as I step outside myself
Shedding the fate of snake eyes past
—new cards the present dealt

Beneath the banner "FREE TO CHOOSE,"
algorithms hum what thoughts to lose—
a labyrinth of tailored streets
where every turn pretends it’s mete.
The app says "yes" but limits "no",
while search bars choke what seeds might grow.
Drop-down menus mock the "free"—
liberty’s a loading spree.
We swipe left through infinite feeds,
terrified to close the apps we’ve kneeled.
The tightest chains are coded thoughts:
ghostwriters scripting what we’re not.
