Sponges
Running down your chin
warm on my shoulder;
Vanilla candles;
Water full of suds
soaking each other;
In the bathtub
rejuvenate,
lips touching mine;
Scented ripples
cascading
head to toe;
Just lie back;
Relax,
sponges
soothe .

Sponges
I wonder if the best way to describe us humans (yes, every other definition you can now expunge) is to simply say, for the record, every human is a sponge.
It makes perfect sense when you think about it…if you take the time to graph the composition of a human…water makes up over half.
Just look at

Public Bathroom
My towels that fall on its floor
Never again cross my door:
Always sentenced to Death by burning,
The circumstances of one mourning…
Or demoted to a shoe rag,
Its reacceptance to eternally drag.
My sponges that in its slips off my hand
Become soldiers missing in action:
Some seconds of silence plus military band
Followed with ‘Rest in Peace or the notion’
I could

If All Sponges Were Removed From the Seas
Oft I've wondered
If sponges were yanked
Would all the seas be dry?

Us Sponges, We Are Not Our Bodies

the sponge?
Slipping, sidling
in:
the Great Outbreath
of the far forgot shore;
so small now as to be
Unimaginable,
upwells in swells the
Entirety of this sea -
and heaves these easy seas
from shore to shore
as
sure as the moon’s dim
light is gasped over
when its wax is over -
when full; when only moonlight
lights the matte blacknight.
Does the

Children Are Sponges
Children are sponges they know their habitat
They're very aware.
Children listen to all your chats and spats
Whether your drinking this or that
Believe me, you make every thing Crystal clear.
Children are sponges they know their habitat.
They know if you are a hellcat
Or a man of prayer.
Children listen to all your chats and spats.
They know when you

Sponges
Absorbing everything
Cause I see everything
Searching behind hidden doors
Combing through the shelves and drawers
Where's the social validation
Social media is like an infection
Information pours like a continuous storm
Being nosy is now the norm
People now days only look at our flaws and imperfection
We live in a land of no freedom with injustices,

Heritage Sponges
At least once a month
the stench from my kitchen
sponge gets so bad I refuse
one more soap saturation
of this primitive sessile.
Why is it that I can’t toss
these replicas of marine life,
amongst the simplest animal form,
free of tissues, muscles, nerves
and internal organs? After all,
during the course of one day I
