The Wicked and The Wick and my humble Abode
Ripping nostalgia right out of my veins Crippled curtains living in psycho domains We demolished this city not just this city the World I can't live slow enough to get to pretend People go crazy and the next day all mends omens The trenches I call home They said a 15 year old couldn't drive I Showed them My mom said I'd...

Premium Member The Wick of Lantern's Flame
Night enfolds me. Darkness is all around Too late to turn back; it's a shelter I seek A bed of leaves gathered upon the ground Shall serve well enough on a night so bleak Pinch the wick of lantern's flame until it dies My thoughts will be of you as I close my eyes November 29, 2021 Bite Size Poem no28 Contest Sponsored...

Premium Member A Middle Child Club
I'd like to start a middle child club for all those kids who got stuck with the rub. For those who received the lesser end of the stick, when the flames of love were burning, they were left with a short wick. I'd like to shout out to that middle child who found love thru others,...

When the sun snuffs out And the day melts down To a black-wick night. When the night breeds doubt And the clouds move in To slay the light. When the shoreline ebbs, And your path erodes, Where can you stand? When your joy subsides Like a bath turned cold, How can you stay warm? From a terrible height, Through a starless sky, Relief will break your fall. Once the pain...

Premium Member The Wick of Love's Flame
In blazing wildfire she was caught Burns penetrated through her heart When heat of fire is so intense pain and suffering are immense What lit the wick of her love's flame Passion and desire share the blame No comfort will soothe her charred soul No words can heal her or console She swore she had no love to give nor the will to linger...

Premium Member It Is Not Only the Candle Wick That Burns
It is not only the candle wick that burns this windy autumn night. There was a tinge of scarlet as well - now shockingly visible! - behind the beige drapes of the dilapidated living room of a cobwebbed cottage (both internal and external). One last great burst of flame was extinguished, as the heavenly lantern was swallowed whole; and in its...
