like a fuse ignites a bomb

Envy me,Oh wrath of truth.Omitting that triggers,the lie in your eyes.How could this
be?Best friends are we?Living in a subdued friendship.

Although the word is not the thing ~
It triggers a memory string

Habit

Habit cures habit
A lie triggers a lie.
Each time that I stumble - 
No more of "God damn it!"
If poems I mumble
I know I'll recover 
And don't fear I'll die!

His dreams, trodden, alas depart

Memories You Brought

Sometimes we forget in our minds
 but never in our hearts
 a memory a pain 
it will always remain
 on matter how long
 or how short
 it triggers the mind
 the memories you brought.

Premium Member Drooling

What makes us giggle uncontrollably What triggers this reaction emotionally If there's a cure Don't want it for sure Really love all the drooling quite copiously

Creepy

It is dark,
Quiet and oddish.
It triggers phobia,
Spiders crawling under my skin.
It is hallow and sinister at best,
And at worst, ominous.
Oh how creepy,
The cell in my head.

Moments

What you sight is soon lost
    as soon as the silence blinks
    only memory still triggers...
    what was the bid taken
     present-past instant
    enter the large windows
     from the abysmal oblivion...

The Day the Kettle Called Me Black-Back

the day the kettle called me black-back,
we had some thing in common
"them drugs never lied,
and triggers don't pull them selves.
time never turned a wife into a whore,
hate never told the blinded racist minds to abhor."
