Skulls
Skulls and roses, skulls and crossbones, most of people who died alone. Skulls in corpses, skulls in the living, ‘til they decompose, protection is what they’re giving. Protect the mind, that tissue so soft, but easily shaken, easily sent aloft. Protecting a soul, so sweet and tender, but nothing, not even nature, can...

Premium Member Hourglass of Primal Wolf Skulls
Why does he provoke me to anger? He stalks among us - with his song - a wolf's grin His inimicality beckons like a hawk's talons, luring prey to certain death Yet he imparts wisdom to those who bleed Beware! his insights twist like a pit of pepper x vipers; devouring souls He spins tales of survival and primal instinct Beneath the façade lies decay concealing...

I was shocked at first, but soon recognized his abiding. They love him, I said. They still have emotion. The came from the meadows, the woods and the ocean. These...

Premium Member Can You Conjure Fire Skulls
My great aunt could conjure fire skulls the child reported. Can you do that? Can you do that? The visiting neighbor did not know. She had never tried it and did not know what a fire skull was. I doubt it, she replied. Knowing it is difficult to visualize something when you do not know what it is....

Premium Member Silent Skulls
its common but unnatural to never have moments of complete silence where the entire world is turned off maybe that's what heaven's all about an eternal silence filled with soul bubbles intermingling-exchanging silent pleasantries no motors or screaming neighbors or childhood screeches thin walled moans or deathbed groans just birdsong mist drifting through the silent heart of heaven...

Skulls
You and your bones, your skin, the unkindness of your eyes... keeps me awake at night, for hours, hours, and sunrises. You and the eco of your absence the memory of us already forgotten, buried in the graveyard. The only remains of what once was our hearts. 6/7/2020...

Premium Member Pro Patria Mori
Pro Patria Mori Missouri volunteers bit bullets, watched as Santa Ana's baggage washed their brazen hair, hip deep in the Rio Grande. The ancient river moved across the land Like slow drool down a leather cheek. Bang! Paul Bunyan's balls rolled down the Great Divide, rattled across the porcelain sea. Oh, the girls! Hair hot and black, Whoopee! Their tongues as pink as baby fat. Now tongs drop...

Table of Skulls
Lion sits at his table with appetite to enjoy fruits of his daily labor Those with him during every feast are invisible skulls of past meals Friends and foes sing and dance jumping all over the table at meal lion harshly bickers, denies rights some he praises and honors bitterly Bed time lion scatters his eyes all over traumatized by vision of...

Swords Through Skulls
In the fields, On the dry cold land, There are monsters. Torn up skeletons, Lying on the ground. One by one. Swords inside the skulls, Slicing through brains in half, Blood trickling down their heads. The demon within, Daemons of Hell. All dead... Dusty bones, Bloody puddles, Lie by my feet. Nothing but bloods and guts. What a horrific battle. The skeletons are destroyed. This is the battle, Of the dead......

Premium Member The Sugar Skulls
Life begins, with morning dew Beneath the earth a small pod waits Till the eyes of winter steals A glimpse of spring, then knows its fate Among remains of those gone past There is hope left on their face To most, it's viewed as death But life still leaves its trace And when the sad tail ends Those that passed, will lie there rotten...

Premium Member Candy, Corn, Skulls, Punk - Kids
The gourds were really jealous of the pumpkin's orange hide. The golden corn was long, long, gone the scarecrow did confide. The old oak tree was worrying for he'd TP on his crown, and the barn's backside was plastered with a witch who's falling down. The plastic skeleton rattled in the evening breeze laughing at the harvest moon he was trying not to sneeze! Soon the kids...
