Sirens Poems

Song of the Sirens

I still long, so long, those long nights at sea

With no souls around, but starlight and me 

No land, no people, no sirens at night 

Picturesque beauty, with unfiltered light 

The Song of the Sirens, still call out my name 

O'er seas, o'er shadows, o'er waves still untamed 

They cradle my soul, then rock me

after the sirens

not anyone
had spoken for hours
but the hard hallway remembered
the sound's echo of ambulance light
and how a woman still clutched her locket

aquamarine

I dreamt of a siren 
with crystal skin and quaint braided hair. 

her eyes, slow swirls of undying azure,
coiled around, her salt-sweet chorus 
tightening at my throat

The alluring notes 
pierce through my rasp scream—

In cold sweats I
wake up nauseous—
My vocal cords enfolded in her skin.

Sirens

Sugar-sighing seas swell and stir
my seaman's obsession with blonde pleasures
but treachery’s buried in treasures feminine gold
a flute  a lyre  voices honey dipped in gilded danger
temptation burns Hades flames on sunset waters
sea-devils  those  she-devils  salty-tear-sweet

ooh songstress sisters  please  just a taste
a kiss on lips that set fire to desires

The Fantasies of Sirens

The bullets did not fly into the wind,
They struck, leaving indelible scars,
Blood on the pavement, pain in impure souls,
The bodies fall, but the eyes remain wide open.
The pains we hide become a torment for the oppressed,
A cry that screams the truth of injustice.
They call it an accident, but the accident is a clean version,
A lie

I paid no heed to the call of the sirenS

I paid no heed to the call of the siren(s)

where amble lances 
hurled with the might 
of off fish hull seductress dances
setting figurative stage to take a bite
from canoodling beastie boy best eaten alive
or just after freshly being killed.

oblivious to the ramifications
courtesy the deafening ear splitting sound,
nor mindful of the devastating emotional fallout
lurking within outer

Sirens and Horns

I'll tell you about the Traffic Cop
Who stands on the road, a rigid prop. 
A whistle in hand, a stern, fixed stare, 
A battle with chaos, a daily affair.

His uniform was bright, a badge on his chest,
A symbol of order, put to the test. 
He waves his arms, he shouts with might, 
Trying to tame

SONGS OF SIRENS

The heart of men
A magnet, a lion's den
Attracted to the soft melodies  
Made by the sway of ladies' hips.

It's like the stories  
Of old sailors
Enchanted by the songs of sirens
Irresistible tunes luring them to their end.

It's a sad reality
How that dance doesn't last too long
For the songs of sirens  
Are just a

The momma and her baby little bear

They ambled thru the town with out a care,
the momma and her baby, little bear..
People on the street all froze and stared,
at the momma and her baby, little bear..
Some gathered on their porches and watched
in their chairs, the momma and her baby, little bear..
Many grew scared as the sirens blared,
at the momma and her baby,

SIRENS

Finally my blood began to coagulate.

I woke to the sound of sirens,
Someone’s in trouble,
Hope they’re all right.
Force reluctant eyelids apart
And see … nothing.
Blink, blink, blink -
And through a fog
Broken glass.
Try to move.
Legs trapped, numb.
Someone’s sitting on my bed?
Reach down,
Leg hot and sticky.
A distant voice,
“I’m Dave, a paramedic.
Have to stop the blood.
Press down on this.”
More sirens.
“Fire

Sirens Song

Caught in a vortex
Gripped by turbulent fingers 
Drawing me downward
Panick stricken stimulation
Rushed through my mind
Mesmerized by depth 
Of the murky waters
Where rusty relics rest
Capsized. Relentlessly
Thinking furiously
Thoughts radiate recovery
Repose is resistant
Seeking refuge
Trinkets tearing tides
Strung on moonbeams
Villain’s vile venom
Tauntingly summoning
Sublimely stressed
Beckoning below
Embodied by a captor 
No subsequent release
Sinking to my doom
Do I dear to hope?
Subconsciously searching
Unknowing of

She was not beautiful like the sirens sharing their luster on pages

She was not beautiful like the sirens sharing their luster on pages,
But she was beautiful in how her thoughts gracefully floated through worlds.
A spark in her gaze when she spoke passionately of her love,
Splendor that, beyond voice, awakens new stars in the heavens.
Beautiful in a smile that gathers springs within another soul,
Even though from her

In the Silence, Louder than Sirens

"In the Silence, Louder than Sirens"

lux vitae bodies merge with minds
the silent universe inside us
makes Love louder than sirens

(LadyLabyrinth / 2023)







“In the silence, love inside us
In the silence, loving guidance
In the silence, love inside us
In the silence, loving guidance
In the silence, peace and quiet
And the sirens won't divide us …"
(excerpt, "Ahoy There"/Dhani Harrison, lyrics)

Sirens' Screams

  Stitched in braille from life's mishaps
    the horrors and the pain relapse
  Even on the quietest shores
    his haunts invaded evermore

  Long ago, the peaceful dreams
    buried deep by sirens' screams
  Transports rushing through the night
    the ghosts

Sirens sound

I have never gotten used 
to the sirens sound—
a heart-piercing shriek
as shrill as a wild pig’s.
A blood-numbing wail,
A spine-chilling, hair-raising cacophony 
that always jarred my nerves;

It reminds me of a baby wailing
a grim reaper slashing someone’s throat
a rapist ripping apart his victim’s dress
an angry wife tearing her marriage certificate
a frustrated father tearing the will on
