Our Tormenting Love
Shut up darling, I am about to scream No, it’s not your fault that you are mean I’ll pick up this mess I made with my heart I might be missing some parts Thousands of pieces shattered after you dropped it That act was quite reckless I’m still trying to figure out why you did But I’ve been told that curiosity is...

Poetry and Dance
Lyriktribute to Pina Bausch (Satis Shroff) POETRY AND DANCE (Satis Shroff) Her images were unusual, Shocking to some. Dancers Jeering and tormenting Other dancers. Dancers Throwing ripe tomatoes At each other. Instead of the bastinado, Lighters held on the soles Of other dancers. Women were women And men were men, In Pina’s world. No melange Of oestrogens and testosterons, No X and Y Chromosomes. Her women wore scarlet lips, You were tormented with ballet: Adagio, flips and...

Premium Member In the Tormenting Sea
An ancient mariner in the seamless sea, I am sailing solemnly for ages in the radiance of luminous sunshine, and when the testing tempest rages. On the azure swells of the rolling waves, rising sky high and falling abysmal low, my senile boat pitches, and I struggle to keep afloat, the journey is slow. The moonless night descends silently on...

Premium Member Tormenting Darkness and Childhood Nightmares
Tormenting Darkness And Childhood Nightmares Oft, dead of night, wakes me with evil tones or fleet whispers that send grating chills. Always they come, crying, shrill shrieking moans as if from dark caverns in the far hills! Still that cold-fright, my yearning does so prick surging tingles race up and down my spine. I pray, tis just my mind playing a trick or...

Tormenting Thoughts
It's clear to see. Time. Fate. It was just a matter of time until fate would bring an end to you and me. It seems that people always try to hold onto things that refuse to be held.

Tormenting Bite of Thy Serpent
Seductive creature Fangs, whose venomous liquid Has tortured my blood Slithering it's way Into my heart, Biting On the forbidden fruit Teasing and tickling With your taunting serpent tongue Orgasmic tears flow My face is flushed as The serpent laughs at my Misery; Ha, ha, ha My skin is pale, but I can still feel the serpent's Scales slide upon me Now it constricts me Intoxicating, lusting The taste of my blood I,...
