Their grind need bribes, bribes that criminalize into crimes that take bribes
It’s a viscous cycle that spins around their lives...

The stench of privilege and entitlement
permeates this viscous flow
But it does settle…
for simple things to be decided
by us...

you attack my soul
with viscous anger and pain
and destroy my blues...

VISCOUS BODY OF WOE

fluid brain floods mind
neurons flee
boat breaks as dreams drown

they spread rumors
behind my back
viscous attacks 
cant cut me slack
im just a snack 
for the moment 
waiting for it
to be done
would rather be numb 
then feel this dumb...

Crude oil drilling
Dark viscous liquid

Becomes valuable
When first distilled

Automobiles
Cause pollution
More dollars for firms.

Mobil viscous wrapping of life’s delight 
nurture denizens now of blight. 
Rebirth or grave from capped height
and from the prism site
Days of opal light
Nights of coal fright
oversight
right?...

At the centre of a viscous net
The sly spider waited alert
A fly flitted closer on buzzing wings
Was caught in the labyrinthine strings
Alas, wound round in ductile rings...

A viscous heart, a liar
A mind of hatred
She’s hurtful, untrustworthy
Nothing is fervid
It’s all in her eyes
She is very devious
Heartless terrorize

under his stench, 
the world known, 
her love drips viscous 
to the glade. 
his wanting quenched, 
in a slight light shone 
surface-reflected eyes 
beholding dawn, 
a son which the night 
in its end 
has made....

Each word on the page
Has its own distinctive weight,
Coated in ever so viscous messages
Singing in sweet droplets

I read your page,
Gently glancing through...
Your secret emotions,
Impossible for me to consume....

Cat has claws and will attack
Fling the viscous thing in a sack!

Seems to do it over and over
Rather sometime have a dog named Rover!

Once it starts having fun
An era of terror has begun!

So get a life you crazy cat
I want to live - how about that!...

Alluring breasts          caressed devilishly.
Ethereal fantasies, 
growing hard in just kissed lips.
Moist     new     odors penetrate quivering recurring spasms.
Teasing, 
     undulating, 
          viscous 
               wetness;           
xanthic yearning zealots.

Thick viscous liquid on top
as the herons hover round,
looking for a way to grab
their underneath preys.

entrapped preys struggle for air,
fisher men confused and stunned,
Movement of tourists hindered,
water can`t be drunk.

Loose hearts,
Linger,separate,
Tear apart.
Loose hearts,
Shrink.wilt,
Twig of life sours tart.
Loose hearts,
crumble,shudder
viscous words shoot in blacken darts.
Loose hearts,
tighten,strengthen,
venture towards a mended start.
Loose hearts,
weep, tangle, unite.
Love sprinkled over happy a la carte....

I want to get off the grid
Don't want to be governed by the viscous
circle of life
Live off what nature hands you.
Live off the grid
Be free in a cabin in the middle
of nowhere.
Separate from the hustle and
bustle of life.
Enjoy every aspect of life.
Do your own thing
without judgement
Be Free...

My marmalade eyes
are viscous
lids sticky
gummed up
glazed over
the world is
sometimes imperceptible
sometimes impenetrable
nebulous
opaque in appearance
incomprehensible
indeterminate
indiscernible
enigmatic world
why is your
complexion so
indistinct
today?

The drop of fire stealthily burns
A tender angel descended into darkness
Spirit raised by my own hand
It grasps into the viscous air
Clinging, to rise, struggle, survive,
Calmly watching I realise I created torment
The flame needed me to live
I needed it to feel safe
Then I wonder who's need is greater
The creature of the creator?

My heart's secrets 
Spill as viscous substance
The seal split
Purity spoilt
From your poison in my veins.

Slowly I sip
From tainted ambrosia
Interludes of ecstasy 
Amidst a transient 
Shimmering surface.

I swallow you like sugar
Tempting and exquisite
Fleeting pleasure quenched 
You rot my insides out
As I plead for more.

a touch at the heart
will light it's inner spark
for what we are waiting for
with faces in the window
having storms in the hight
sporting long hanging viscous fangs that bite
many choose to live by sight

claiming that's their right
yet who are they anyways
a beautiful flower display
this is all I have to say
yet don't delay
wouldn't have it any other way...

Two Rivers

Stark naked she slowly shrivelled her exposed vacant mind

shed dry viscous tears and filled the empty river in vain

Exhausted petrified her and the stream her inner self 

bared to rugged contraction with one final squeeze flooded

the truth that she floated on sediment nevertheless

Pebbles those thick drops of hard rain;  earth hail skittering
At the front of your mind growing, sloshing marbled and felt in your teeth
Scratching ache and unbalanced weight rolling forward to escape

Mud mouth soil that packed downslope; viscous vicious 
Damming down rivers the chest, collected tunnel tailings pressurize
Expanded space and collapsed place resisting to make face...

The mighty centenarian marches
slowly uphill across the level ground
through viscous air, stiffened by time’s starches,
fighting a viral foe this time around
allied with the Hippocratic Oath bound.
A metallic steed shod with rubber wheels
bears his regal frame. His campaign reveals
greater power than any sword or spear.
He raised a sum for the army that heals
and warmed our hearts in a chilling cold year....
