What's a Voice?
What's a voice that falls upon deaf ears? What's a voice that nobody hears? What's a voice that only lingers in thin air? What's a voice that isn't respected with care? Useless.. Emotionless.. Fears.. Tears... What is that voice now? Prevanescent and lost. ...

Fruit Jar Fireflies
I see words, and they see me It’s true they are sentient, quite But they will never see the light of my world through my loins They keep floating by, ever speaking never ceasing like tinnitus in my transcendent sight Like orphans from somewhere never Their little fingers grope as they look at me squarely Speaking barely, “bring me...

Premium Member Rules
One must master the rules before breaking them -- it is like that, especially with poetry: One learns to logically manage the spaces~ what isn't said, the pauses and non verbal connective feels -- The novice often says too much or is so obliquely obscure that he or she makes senseless attachment with others -- Fine fabric of poetry closer the frayed edges of language,...

I love to create your story in words, like a dream woven from threads of light and desire, As if it was and is no more, a fairy tale brought to life under the pen of time flowing gently, I turn you into a beloved fairy tale hero, with a happier ending where our love is eternal...

How Innocent Are The Words
How innocent are the words from the mouths of cute teens, it's raw poetry dedicated to lovers in any season that inflames ardent desire!
