Premium Member Truncated Sonnet: ''A Sonnet Begets Life''
A Sonnet begets life. Joy, her child, leaves her womb, bliss that transcends the tomb and dulls the Reaper's scythe! Ah! Joy belittles strife; delight, as from bedrooms (without impassive gloom), makes mother of a wife. When bards compose, ardent ...

Premium Member Truncated Family Line
As her father. I walk her down the aisle. People in attendance say She looks like a princess I agree. It was not always so. She was my only son. Until he turned 18. My only progeny. Then one day he came to me. And said father. I feel strange. I don’t feel, I am a boy. I want a sex change. And so began the process. For...

Love, Love, Love, what is Love? Love soars, and fears no height; Love is joy, and feels right; Love's god-like, from above. Love softens the stone heart, and pierces the dark night; Love shines forth heaven's light, and stays,—to ne'er depart. Love loves...

Organic mystery, bated breath Known causes, uncertain breath. Systemic matter, wild shields Cells in order, fated breath. Corporeal wave, bloody fashion Tumultuous fissures, captured breath. Peasant ailing, fortune calls Civil measures, alien breath. Shadows cast, a just reward Mortal wishes, eternal breath. Toasted glass, healer's gain Conjured image, phantom breath....

Truncated Plans
I was all stoked ready to roll when suddenly someone else announced she is in charge. Shift gears! Put it in second. We're going down hill to sea level, where energy glides upon calm waters, no waves. Will she take the helm or let us drift aimlessly as it has been awhile now. SKB...

The Truncated Cube....
The bringer of light at one time had a sigil apparently derived from a box that was magical Hodge podge collage,distant mirage panoramic screens,our world of dreams Multi-dimensional multiple facets doorways of personal consciousness enwraps us Magical box,long forgotten with time fullfilling gestures of mimicking mimes Muti-verse of pre-arranged activity virtual world of insensitivity tetragrammaton,the truncated cube played out is the living,wrongly assume Refracted our vision distraction the mission slight of...
