Premium Member Little Bo Peep
Little Bo Peep has lost her sheep!

   Serves her right for fallin' asleep!

      Pa wasn't happy about this turn of events,

         And sent her to bed after spankin' her pants!

For Someone
Creating smiles is what you do,
Oblivious of what mine actually represents. 
“Love” doesn’t just come out of the blue,
“Love” sometimes comes from some turn of events. 
Even though my emotions are sometimes vague for you,
Every time I see you I wish I could be by your side and,
Never again feel this pain I still don’t understand....

I Am Seven
What a turn of events
Those memories make floods look like tears
Hilarious as it is
I am amused

What a formulation of change
Those pains make the rain look like laughter
Sweeter as it is
My taste buds are awkward

What a creation of the future
The laughter make the volcano look like a thunderstorm
Amazing as it is
I am touched...

The Awaiting Time
Sleeping trees,
Weary and worn out,
They retire back home,
Losing strength, 
They await a revitalizing, 
They await a time of refreshing,
Reaching for spring, 
They hope for a new dawn,      
A door to a turn of events,
They'll worry no more about losing pieces,
For it's the dawn of a new era,
They'll bask in their rich foliage.

Alone
Am I drowning in the water yet

Piercing the surface I fell through

Or am I still floating dead

Sad turn of events into

Could I have escaped perhaps

Should I have even tried

Bad luck sure lends me no gaps

Had I better died

But life and on I must continue

Maybe a thousand years

And mortality it subdue

Bringing back old fears

And soon I must decide

What goes on and on

Is it a beautiful flower

Or what withers alone....

Premium Member Don't underestimate Paradox
Paradox

Appears and

Burns the story

And itself..

A shocking

Turn of events

In a story...



Stories are

Appearances

Of knowing..

Paradox points to

Not-knowing

Which may 

Empty these

Appearances...



Paradox

Is a sudden

Pointer

In a story

To the immediacy

Of emptiness

In all stories...



Paradox

Sets a fire to

Separation's hold..

Impossibility

Is the new story..and

Possibly peace......

Momentum
playing' for change
turn on a dime

inna New York minute
the blinked eye

Fates heaven sent
this turn of events

gain the momentum
angels sent 'em

tide is turning
elation or angst

dare we dream
not what it seems

level suddenly tips
secondhand slips

avalanche breaks
trivial mistakes

everything changes
the world rearranges

mass and its velocity
a beautiful atrocity

seen from your eyes 
looking so surprised

Ordinary Breakfast Brutality
Adjacent to Magic Mr. Coffee
Miss Sunbeam sits anxiously
atop the frigid Ms. Frigidaire
Grab two of her offspring
She protests perniciously
and shrieks ‘Kidnapper!!’

Madame Cuisinart murmurs 
‘C’mon, right here in my slots
Oooh! Yes, you NAUGHTY boy’
Shove down her handle and hear
one victim exclaim to the other:
‘Hey bro, I think we’re toast’….

Damn RIGHT you are Sunny Boy
and don’t you dare burn me
then try to butter me up again
Bzzzt! (A shocking turn of events)...
