A consequence of today
My heart will follow...

An old tome lays unscathed
Under Peter's feet....

in poised crouch ready
camo'd stripes in apricot
feathers fly unscathed...

Cats escape through door ajar.
Worry and searching for days.
Unscathed they return!...

Though obstacles crowd your way
Your future shines bright
You will make it through unscathed
Here I stand to keep you strong...

Ran a mile,
Along the track,
Tripped.
Unscathed.

Walking ’round
By the sidewalk
Pushed.
Unscathed.

Took a dive
In the deep blue
Drowned.
Unscathed....

The guilty ones escape unscathed,
The innocents are relentlessly punished
The fools are adorned,
The wise are scorned.
Oh! Blind Justice,
Of Goddess Nemesis!!...

Just
Over the
Next hill
Quietly resting
Underneath the
Icy ground
Lay the jonquils.

Bulbs 
Unscathed by
Long winter days
Bearing the promise of 
Spring....

Glowing
unscathed
flowing...

Draped in finery

Knowing

little of reality
she is far too young, you see
to get a sense of what is me....

Showing
without
owing

Shielded from reality

Growing?

We'll see....

My man Kenny breezed through five marriages
Certainly not unscathed but with a few blemishes
They certainly cost him
Much to his chagrin
But to me he's still a big star with lots to cherish...

cloud calling rock range
nimble footed hideaway--
climbers cold mistress

stony faced beauty
brilliantly immutable--
renders me breathless

hawks moon-shadow leap
glacial peak to sky unscathed--
cannot hide from me...

Had this super duper dream last night
Took on ten men single handed, oh what a fight
Came away almost unscathed
'Cept my manhood got defaced
Was proud of my wee friend, what a horrible sight

I was unscathed inside a vacuum of pride;
Reaching vastly into the countryside;
I hide;
Breaching the hemisphere;
Gatherings stride;
Vividly I abide in the now, here;

I have an empty page upon which
my scribbling efforts will scar.
I sometimes think if it would
like to remain unscathed as it is;
yet, what is a blank page worth
just sitting there...
lest it be crumpled to start a fire
just as scribbling often will....

Words pamper words
Unscathed, unheard


Lewd remarks rip
A one-way trip


Taunt and ruffle
Whim makes trouble


Hostile mindset
A coward frets


Why do we write?
That soul may cite


Bliss knows true joy
Flings sanguine ploys

Subliminal recession in a valid medium taunts your apathetic presence. Sin the 
alleviate disparity, cos a destined validity, tangent universal.  Overtaken by infinity, 
hovering unscathed of the insidious through a self deity. Collapsing perception 
rushing through these opaque peripheries....

Here I am...
clueless as you, take my stare,
imprisoned my spirit
on your tainted palm...

Clever I was not,
but strong as you can't think of.
I braved your will,
to break me from here.

You found me unscathed,
but healed the hidden scratch.
How good were your hands,
when I am a sinner among your lambs...

No crackling sounds,
or smouldering embers,

not even a hint of a wisp of smoke,

no heat felt at all.

Still, a fire rages,

scorching through the canyons of my memory,

in sweltering waves of loss,

without a whimper, or a thundering roar.

Yet,

I stand alone, seemingly unscathed,

but,

burnt to my very core....

They nap and yawn in their dens
They clop around their turf doing nothing
They roar where there is no real danger
They throw dirt at everyone
They hibernate to their holes during storms
The pop out unscathed to be saviours
They prey on the weak, topping the food chain
Strangling others to make personal gains...

ZOO CAFÉ

clicked on the zoo café
nothing less
than a latté
paired with a reptile
yup
a pretty leaf design
in the cream
and a long-tailed lizard

optional tortoise
or cat
i think

i’ll warm up
with a sip
way against
the sill
with a purr-ific
cup
and a felis catus

unscathed
