Once again I missed the contest...sigh

Vortex

twisted, turning, spinning round
vortex, darkness does surround
no light left to find my path
no way forward
no way back

IT Professor Simon Rogerson
a first-name his surname began
Folks often twisted the two
thus Roger Simonson came into view

ice edges the river
white dots through twisted limbs
swans house hunting

Panic

A twisted mesh of brambled wire,




Crudely knotted around my stomach,


My lungs fill with grief,

I cannot breathe

The Search

I went searching for hattie pattie
But found scarfy larfy
With a pin
Moved on to henny penny 
Who said the sky was fally wally

Excitment in the sesnes,
Seeing sights I've missed,
Weather it's a newly twisted fibous cloud
Or someone of reminisence dreams.

I AM LOST
ALL IS GONE
ANYTHING THAT MATTERED
WASHED AWAY
INTO THE DARK TIDE
TANGLED METAL
SILENCED LOVE
THIS TWISTED HEARTBREAK.

Happy Birthday to my friend!
One third of the three,
in life’s twisted blend.
Unlikely in all ways,
but twined together till the end.

Captive

Captive

Locked in your shadow
Rigid as a board
Twisted in the dark
Eyes fixed and insane
Arms like heavy chains
Captive in a haze

Premium Member Double Take

It’s a giant bird
Second look, it’s a young girl
A thrilling third glance
It’s actually an angel
Three twisted in a statue

Love twisted my mind
and left my heart in shambles.
But whose fault was it?
Life is full of accidents;
can this be true of heartbreak?

PICTORIAL VAN GOGH poetrix



          

       Golden fields driven by winds
          routes of exile, twisted sky
    tawny canvases, sad beautiful scenes!

Rooted Life




Tendrils,
Twisted, reaching,
Sun-warmed leaves, fruit hangs ripe,
Man's patient and yielding journey,
Vineyard.

Winter Woe

Never meant to be bitter and twisted,
its the back pain that makes me so, 
used to love frosty winter morns, 
and dogs playing in the snow.

Strain

He wiggled his body and strain
He even twisted his hand
Trying to break in the store
Then was caught in the door
Causing his body much pain

Food

Ate food at banky linky
But it tasted like stinky stinky
Threw up all over pinky kinky
Went home to slinky hinky
But the bed kept spinny linny

Kama Sutra Typos

We got tangled up in bed
Our legs, hands, fingers, bodies
Unnaturally twisted, intertwined
All crazy angles…
Why? Because of Kama Sutra typos!

Happy Birthday, Covenant

spirit’s star blazes
angels slough caste to chorus
tongues of shepherds freeze
pride-twisted scripture withers
born clean is the King of Souls
Form: Tanka

Wounded Wishes

Of broken wishes,
like twisted, cracked twigs once green,
we speak in whispers
hoping to graft them to limbs
gently taped, repaired, to bloom.

Barb Wire

Twisted and tormented
                        You keep things in, you keep things out
                                       A guardian, a jailer

Figment

WHAT CRUEL FATE
HAS TWISTED
THIS MESS
THIS MADNESS
THIS MONSTROSITY
THIS BLACK HOLE
OF A THING
INTO ME
WHOSE BLEAK VISION
WAS MADE REALITY.

Twisted

A mind
hints
torn again
uncertain
like a flowing wind
confusions, non guidance
set in
a rush
oh hush
a deepen scar
wounds within
twisted.
