Helping The Victims Of The Wildfires
The crisis in California is heartbreaking and it certainly is dire. I donated $20.00 to the American Red Cross to help the victims of the wildfires. I donated and I encourage you to donate too. It will certainly be a kind thing for you to do. The situation is horrible and there is no doubt. Please donate to these people...

The night they know is bright as day
There’s children growing up that believe the stars sound like crickets chirping, for their only exposure to these sources of wonder are through over-exposure to blue light and radio waves and soundtracks overlaying simulations. The night they know is bright as day, lit by “satellite internet constellations” or fogged out by the price of progress. They don’t understand what it is to stare upwards and...

Maui Wildfires Miracle Man 8-16-2023 Loved ones lost, others perhaps, forever missing, and from this disaster some rush to place blame. Try empathizing with others and abstain from dissing, lend a helping hand as their lives they reclaim. To awake one morning and see life’s work disappear, when no thought was present that this might occur. Things may possibly be worse than they now...

Autumn's at the mercy of unscrupulous wildfire A tornado igniting forest walls with leaves aswirl Flames of colors rare radiant orange sapphire On glowing wind-borne embers storm, they twirl October fires, dubbed the season of the witch Destroying two hundred thousand acres in route An unmerciful fate leaving a scarred barren ditch Fierce arid gusty storms are furnaces in this drought An exploding...

We bite the dust every morning, spitting gray powder, like desperados. Firebirds nosedive in forewarning, perverting the trees into hell’s tornadoes. We taste sooted smog on our tacky tongues, dragging all our shadows of remorse. Finding no habitat for our wheezing lungs, we long for the rain’s fecund watercourse. We find Death Valley spreading like a contagion, and dodge parched patches, bruised...

Today, our sun shone neath a haze that blocked its rays. Views disappeared; the air looked weird. The weather forecast sounded great; blue skies, clear fate. Stead, we were shroud inside a cloud! But, then I heard, as the news broke, wildfires spread smoke from West to East- an airborne beast!

Until now, the skies were only blue or gray. But today, wrathful Cacus set the sky ablaze. Today, the spectral smoke choked ochre sky mirrors exploding wildfires unleashed below. Today the tarnished jaundice sky measures the crumbling Constitutional edifices, the raging roving injustice burning everywhere across the land. Today as thousands are driven from their homes, the pestilence spreads across the land,...

Premium Member Wildfires In His Eyes
"You're here," he whispered from shadows My fragrance consorted before me Heady scent of musk-infused blooms Intoxicating allure, lustfully impure On the bed was an opened poetry book, across it pages, a perfect red rose Dark crimson, like the blood within me flows heated by need and the greed in his eyes There burned the wildfires of desire flames fanned as...

You extend the juiciest of apples before my eyes Imploring, "Come closer, love, and have a bite" Eden is lost to us and it's too late for compromise I'll not be tempted to savor forbidden fruit tonight Your eyes flow with the passion you're needing this last somber night we'll be sharing our bed Saying no to you wounds my heart...
