Premium Member Speed Dial
Hang ups, I’ve got plenty of those Like a phone with too many busy signals, I couldn’t get through to you. I think the number you gave me was out of service. You said, “Dial me up” but the damn phone was a push button. I called long distance, the operator said “Put another quarter in.” Sadly I only had one thin...

Going, Going, Gone
Arrived alive departed dead and the same may be said of all who tread this weary world of ours less a milestone more a speed bump each Birthday I perceive and poetry is but one way to fill the waning hours for me ...

at full speed
As Voltaire might have said, “ And yet it all works” Did you know, dear friends, that our galaxy Dash through space, at a speed of 2.3 million kilometres per hour, How does it not disintegrate? Why does the sun keep shining? How the earth turns around sun While it is also running at 2.3 million km/h? I know, there is in this perfect...

Premium Member The Look Is Fast As The Speed of Light
The Look Is Fast As The Speed of Light I got the look! Instantaneous…eyes snap sidewise faster than the speed of light… Freeze tag pinned in place… Duh da da duh… I'm in trouble, blown something… No question… no room for doubt… Yet not really… Dad's unique cue… falling in between traditional parenting cracks… Straddling between discipline and...

Speed Gutter Bunny
Sexuality marooned jellybean pilfered spigot refugees vomit hazelnut in some static plain cloud cupboard. A stifled hexed harvest, suffer the stagnant taffy contraception, Oxidized gut-string lyre feeble mast crippled rod. Shall you be parallel on the naked stem on the shrunken pagan altar? Penguin whale jackal follicle carriage orgies I have the cavernous trunk of thirst, Permanently altered, famines, droughts. Loosen your...

Stripes of Night
With claws like daggers, sharp and keen, the tiger moves a silent machine. Its strength unmatched, a force of might, a hunter born in the fading light. With senses keen, it hears the faintest sound, a whisper of wind on the parched ground. A burst of speed, a blur of orange fire, the tiger strikes, fulfilling its desire. ...

Flying Just Off The Ground
It took me years of training to move my legs like this, gliding over the granular on long feet with curved width, to make my legs flail left and right, my upper half stock-still, balancing and countering so I won’t take a spill, I’m going about forty-five, but I’ve got no steel cage, just long blades cutting through the white, so long as it behaves. Gravity is...

Mother Nature's Tentacles
Cats are Mother Nature's energy healers. Humans are energy churners. Tornadoes. Waves. Breath. We are movement itself. We can be soft or violent. We are warm or frigid, hard or impartial. Elephants are wisdom and grace and comedy and gentle strength. They are the Matriarchy. Elephants teach all other creatures our place, teach us who we are. Or...

Mother River
My mother is a river. Not a calm, deep river, lush with fish and plants, flowing by gently and powerfully...but a thick, white rapids, furiously polishing the jagged rocks into marbles. There is no room for rest in her arms. You have to work for every ounce of her attention...or she will drown you. She is...

Premium Member Full Speed Ahead
Yet .mountains more we must climb Peaks to pick, never to decline Doing otherwise depresses the mind Those demons of fear, we must bind Full speed ahead; never deaf or blind And we dare not weep or whine Change hates to wait; now is the time Fix broken pieces; it's half past nine Whatever is missing, we must find There' s still time to...
