Conqueror of Words

Uttering those words
out loud as if they 'd been just 
discovered, you did 
bring them into their knees like 
a newfound land's conqueror.

when uttering a fowl cluck
was told I was pushin' my luck
but as my defense-a
the chicks weren't from mensa
and bought my routine as a duck

Milked

There was a gent named Hackle
With a temper he’d oft unshackle.
He was known to scream
Uttering curses in a stream
And then pop, snap, and crackle.

Muse

My very inspiration, a light there in the dark
Uttering, magically, words igniting sparks
Satiating, wonderfully, the need to pen in verse
Eagerly providing the words to fill the thirst

Advice

I refrain from uttering for I know what it would mean
I am sorry but I definately would not intervene
Such heartbreak such confusion
My heart is so full of delusion
Yet I will not convene!

DOUBT

Heart, what do you want?
Is it in front?

Uttering those whispers,
You show me hopes of glimmers.

Heart, are you confused?
While my soul is used.
But you, be at ease.
As the divine will show you peace.

With My Last Breath

At night the silence fills the air
Uttering sounds that are so unclear 
But it better than any nightmare
And so I stand here 
In the cold air
With my last breath
And a huge thirst
And I won't fright 
Cause of whats left

The Galaxy of Zy

There is a star in the galaxy of Zy
Where the people speak by uttering sighs
On reconasance to find a land dry
Landed near a bench where Henry Parks took his naps
With outstretched arms he let out a sigh, within seconds he was zapped

.

      So soft and pleasant 
mine kith’s tumid humid lips 
    pressing on these hips

        Uttering strongly
  the vociferous pert miss

            quivering 
             gasping

         causing mine
               limp

Premium Member Agape Indeed Amen

Reflecting upon his love
His inspiration
How he died
Whispering prayers
Breaking his mother’s heart and
All who wish for healing
His home is not our evil world
This sin free gift has a passionate purpose
And courage uttering “It is finished”.

Sensual Sentiment

Subtle kisses in the dark 
Can you see me?
Soft and gentle embraces without uttering a single word
Do you feel me?
My presence has left me and stumbled upon you
Anxiousness causes heart throbs of dissonance 
Do you love me? 
Lip biting has become inevitable

Premium Member Spitting On the Happy Couple

Spitting on the happy couple at Greek weddings Is a tradition that the bride and groom are really dreading There's another disgusting practice An exhibition of much flatulence By guests uttering “FTOU” it prevents bed-wetting (Look it up LOL)

An Uttering Fire

they go
into the uttering fire
enter
- no more talking

the rubble is piled high
higher than the high houses

men in turrets
crush
they lick their dry lips

they listen
to the flames

ash falls within an oily rain

a dead face in the flames
begins to talk

-in This World-

In this world
of symbolic living
so much knowing
To little of doing
so much starving
No feeding

In this world
of symbolic striving
so much muttering
To much of nothing
so much uttering
no creating

In this world
of symbolic dying
so much wasting
To much idolizing
so much crying
No synchronizing

No Guts, No Glory - A Skeletal Lament

Nette Onclaud- DROP THE CLICHE 
10 Dec. 2025

I sit uttering the common words,
NO GUTS, NO GLORY, but what of me?
What of the bone, the structure,
The planning for the plot?
Why am I denied recognition
For remaining in the background?
I was still here. It was me. Alas,
No guts. No glory

Premium Member Enough

Everyday most awaken to a quest acquiring more
Never considering just closing the door
Oddly no matter how many gulps of the juice taken
Uttering that a thirst is quenched would be godforsaken
Genuine gratitude for things that are not purchased fluff
Have a selfless comfort always knowing it's enough

Unable To Speak

Trying to make the poetry prose
Or the prose poetic again
I insulted the meaning
With juxtaposition
Stabbing an idea
That should have been shot
Killing a verse
That should have been saved
Thinking the truth
While uttering a lie
Forming the words
  —unable to speak

(Villanova Pennsylvania: May, 2014)

Isolation

Isolation is to be left out
when you want to be in
It is the cruelest of emotions
Leaving you alone 
to count how many times you got let down
and eventually lose track
It is uttering a cry from the depths of your soul
and waiting forever for that reply
I despise the feeling of isolation
I think everyone does

JUST TOO POETIC

The words pierced through my heart
Shattering every hope I held for her.
Those shared dreams; the house on the hill
Love, that's her name, the cutest girl ever.

Those words linger, echoing relentlessly 
"You're just too unattractive to me now!"
How I wish she'd just left
Without uttering a word.

What an end!

Please Leave Me Alone - Original By Rabindranath Tagore

Please leave me alone
I remember her so much off and on!

Now no one can make my time worthwhile
By uttering those amazing words
By keeping me busy in my works!

I make a garland of story
With pieces of my memory!

I carry this gem of pain to her
On my lonely way to hereafter
With her own wealth I decorate her!
