Premium Member Tranquil vs American Style

The new congress trial
jaw-dropping inquisition~
       American style
if wise men contendeth with
 foolish men there'd be unrest

    Meathead Senator 
apology's in your court~   
      Missouri's finest
we need not argue with fools
shuddering souls of your sort

     In the land of hope
proud stead diligent resolve~
    it's times like these that
    our trust in tranquility 
 brings closer to his dissolve 
  
   The doors are closing
human being members only~
    with soul and a heart
unbequeathed of bad deeds.
   Evil's grip on its way out
  
    Tribute gone viral
troubadour cradles guitar~
  its times like these that                                     
 give power to the people
you're my Hero David Grohl

Biking; Country Style

Two spoked wheels, blurry sped;
A road's sky-way on.
Now feather-light, now a-flutter
Sat of me upon.

All that's blowy to feel
Within as without
Is this its rush - Freedom's.
Through a joyous shout.

old anglesea rd.c. 2002

Others will adjust

Tears roll down 
Sorry, sad soul
Tracksuit's wet
A dress will do
The style's good
Others will adjust


Premium Member "Life-Street Style "

Life be uncivilized 

Some days,

No heads-up-

Still we walk onward  like fire 
Won't fold us.

Pain
Runs late,

Lurking,

Long- winded existing 

But we keep living like  loss

Can't lock our light.

Hope
Hits hard,

Lifting 

Low Spirits-

Letting lost legends  lean

Back into their vigor.

The Lamp

What a lovely lamp,
not contemporary style,
from the good old days,
early Dachau I am told
it's very old, menschlich skin.

Premium Member Free Style Butterfly Cinquain


               Jeweled crown
         snatched from dark hair,
     white horse ran for the woods.
Shrewd princess now stripped, is naked.
                    Chin up,
you have nothing, but CAN rebuild. 
       When fairy tales crumble
            you swim that mote
                    free style.

Ode Two Shakespeare Gilmore Style

What is love?  
What makes everything alright?  
Is it something from above?  
What gets YOU through the night?  
What is Young Lust?  
A song written by Pink Floyd?  
Who do we trust?  
I believe we both can get annoyed... 
We have had time to heal, 
Yet, I still want to steal your heart... 
What is Time and do NOT tell me another Pink Floyd song... 
Could pleasure be measured?  
Can either one of our lives be treasured?  
Or did we both completely lose our minds...

Premium Member LOVE MAYA ANGELOU STYLE

These times when there is so much hatred in the world 
I am grateful for the words of Maya Angelou
which always help me cope:

Love recognizes no barriers.
It jumps hurdles, leaps fences,
penetrates walls to arrive at its destination
full of destination…
full of hope.
