Unraveled here
Scattered around
Confusion about him
A man looks towards defeat
All twisted

Today is an American folk event
Unraveled by traditions and etiquette
Vixens ask men on a date
Women hoping to find a mate
Sadie Hawkins Day we celebrate

A white beard
The shred of whiskers
Tossed about
The unraveled hairs
Tenderly expressed

Verse
Twisted; you're a mystery
Unraveled; turned out a misery
Tangled; you're undefinable
Deciphered; near yet unreachable
Discovered; I love you
Ended; I watch you go

once on the swing I noticed a seam
in the sky it wasn't a dream
because it been seen it unseamed
everything unraveled
even the swing and me
I'll miss that swing

Days to night
Nights to day
Flowers Bloom
And petals fall
The sun does rise
As the monsoons fall
Twists and turns
the roads we travel
I smiled
The mysteries unraveled

Light Verse
She wrapped her gift
of outstretched arms
In passionate embrace
of myriad charms.
He turned away
He spurned her prayer
Love unraveled--
Dread silence shared.

My plans for a road that's less traveled
are looking a little unraveled;
inflation is roaring
and fuel costs are soaring...
Yikes, six hundred bucks for the gravel!

Limerick
A redness
is undone now.
Unraveled,
With regret
not as absent
as you.
Hollow and
Feverish, I
retreat into
nothingness.

A basket of red yarn balls
fell to the floor and scattered.
Temptation was just too great -
kitty unraveled.

i unraveled
the newspaper
the suns travels
the days labor.
another rise
another fall
worth the price
after all?
more blood
spilled
kill or be
killed
to fill up our cars
your home must be drilled.

I do not know?
We are becoming
Unbound
Our fantasy
Unraveled
Sorrow covered words
Of polite regret
They swallow me up inside
Wisdom weary
Behind the storm
We race, reckless
Towards defeat
This is the death of us.

My heart unraveled.
Like a ball of house cat yarn.
Wish she would have told me sooner.
but I chose to play leapfrog with the truth.
Wish she would have told me sooner.
I don't like sitting in a puddle of hell.

on this bumpy road which we all travel,
sometimes smooth..sometimes unraveled
the ones I meet along the way
I may not talk to everyday
through the good times and times of strife
a friend for a minute is a friend for life

Truth unraveled and told
Help us all Lord
To find your truth
Oh! Father God as we aspire
To be clothed in your righteousness,
while seeking you higher

You!
The knot in the shoe string
I can't untie...
The piece of lint that struck
To my dark blue suit...
The thread that unraveled
When I was dressed to a "T"...
The last drop of water
That made my cup overflow!

I HAVE SEEN GOD FACE TO FACE
A SATAN HAST WRESTED ME TO NO END
I AM THE GOD THAT HE SPEAKEST OF
THAT HAST WREST LOOSE THE
TALUS
AND NOW I STAND BEFORE THESE
MEN SUPERIOR AND BEST
AND UNRAVELED BY THE APPROACH
OF THOSE WHO WISH ME
UNDONE

Ballad
A path well traveled
from a mind that's unraveled
This path of pain
With nothing to gain
I've walked this path of self destruction
Without any mental function
Walking without a friend
With no site in end
I walk this path again and again

Rhyme
Today was such a day!
Troubles seem like miles,
Away! On a path, unraveled.
The sun hid.
Many clouds.
The rain washed;
My tear stained face.
Away! My heart in unison;
Driving rain!
Now: read it in reverse! (Inspired by The Worst Day Ever)

clew
a thread
unraveled
it pulls me back
away from the scene
where I had done battle
other heroes are god-touched
their fathers' powers aiding them
sore and wounded ... I retrace my steps
the heartstring of my love will pull me through

All life,
is a mystery,
from the cradle
to the cemetery...!
If that is a problem
in life, that's why
on a higher celestial plane
the unraveled,
The elevation justifies...
Is our relentless pursuit
living life after life...!
Our supreme lesson to learn !

Light Verse
Wood and tin,
windows thin,
roads of mud and gravel.
Noise and fumes,
the broken tunes,
of lives that have unraveled.
The damage done.
Hope, all but gone.
Some dust will never settle.
Now, too late,
to end the hate?
What waste our parents struggle.

Political Verse
thought she had it all
but it was just illusion
one day without warning
the precarious house
of cards collapsed
her world falling to pieces
her life unraveled ~
somehow she trusted
she would find the strength
to pull herself together

Robert Frost and Grand Canyon
What happened was slowly unraveled.
Another road she should have travelled
Instead of into environment blended
And end up on road that dead ended.
How about the woman lost in the snow
near Grand Canyon and great poem about
Robert Frost I just read. Jim Horn
