Premium MemberYou are a flame in the dark, ugly and beautiful

You are a flame in the dark, ugly and beautiful,
A labyrinth of contradictions, a dance in dissonance.
You are a rose with thorns, so beautiful yet painful,
A girl with angel eyes, innocent and yet perverse.
You are a mystery, an enigma shrouded in mist,
A puzzle with thousands of pieces, a challenge slipping from my lips.
You are a

Premium MemberThe good, the bad, and the ugly

As the world turns and the days go by
life comes in waves of positive and negative
experiences, but occasionally a tsunami will
knock one senseless and it takes a while
for things to calm down and become manageable
again and I am looking forward to that season

Premium MemberThe Ugliness of Money

Why do so many not have enough
    for their most basic needs

While others have more
    than they can ever spend

They can’t take it with them in the end

Premium MemberOld Ugly Wicked Queen

There was once a Queen 
Who sat on her throne
Behind closed doors 
Giving orders, abusing and casting spells
The staff rebelled and chucked her in hell
Where she remains still spitting poison.

Premium MemberPaint Me an Ugly Duck, lyrics

Awakened and degenerated, I feel I am clashing somewhere 
The clouds appear and then depart, just another face amongst billions  
Millions of colors of the rainbow at one point I thought I was rare    
Surprise, it is another birthday, traveling through the flow of time   
Stop this ride, we

Premium MemberCry Ugly

"Cry Ugly"

My deepest private searing pain manifests as "Cry Ugly.”

Guttural moans race like a runaway train. The wail crescendos and peaks as a Banshee scream.

Tears race down my face… my nose leaks... snot and tears merge dripping off my chin reminding me of small intermittent waterfalls… I taste salt.

Vain furious attempts to wipe this viscous

Premium MemberThe Interview

Place: Honourable mention 


“Oh, my dear mirror!
You show the queerer,					 
The beautiful and the ugly,
As they are!

Everything on the left 
Stays on the left;
Everything on the right 
Stays on the right.

What you see, you show,
Neither less nor more!
You’re the best judge, 
That we all know!

Even for the sake of fun
Against none, 
You never show

Premium MemberUgly Plastic Fern

Doctor’s office
The fern in the corner is plastic
They couldn’t afford silk?
There is nothing refreshing about it

There is a candy jar
The old guy has been up there six times
I know because he brings the wrapper to me
I am sitting next to the wastepaper basket

That fern is disturbing
Anything that ugly should not be shared
I would be doing

Ugly Orange Shutters

Ugly Orange Shutters

It’s ½ past midnight when I ease my 1989 white Nissan Sentra into the long driveway of Horseshoe Rd. A decade past its prime but its engine is still strong. I’m late, but no one ever waits up. The lights are off, but the moonlight reflects an abnormal glow off the ugly orange

Above and the beauty we make ugly

Above is the place 
I wish to race
Above is the face 
I wish to grace
Where  people dreams age
And where thunderstorms  rage
The wildest  dreams take courage
And where you  feel the stars stage 

Above is the Term 
That we use when success has arms
The word that manifest richness alarm
Reminder of bellow and its germ
Reminder of the bare

Motherhood is Ugly

I woke up this morning with my hair in knots.
Lines on my belly mapping where you had been. 

Dishes in the sink glared at me as I walked by.
The stove harboring remnants of last nights dinner.

Laundry remained unfolded in the hall.
The washer crying as I added another load.

Motherhood is ugly...
But today you smiled at me.
