Troy Tinsley Poem
Morning time...waking with sweets in my mouth
cinnamon carameltmarshmellowed out
breakfast cereal Sugar Dynamite
secret prize inside,bestows x-ray sight
Sugar shock,tooth rot,'60s psycotropic lollipops
an infinite selection @ Treat's Sweetshop
its addictive candy flavors
improves moods and bad behavior
beware of its dangers
sugar rush overdose and hypereality at most
Peanutbrittle,jawbreakers,misfortune cookie riddles
limesours with saccarine middles
crispycreams filled my mouth
multi-colored jelly beans,sweet and sour insideout
Chocolate candy bars filled the candy jars
cinnamon coal pepper scorchers
mouth and stomach torture
jellied fruit medley,candied vomit,flavor bliss
oatmeal crisps and spicey comets
cool peppermints sooth
my tongue stuck to sticky tarts stronger than glue
Sugared hyper,spoiled rotten
the last flavor blast,gone not forgotten
Narcotic treats penny gag sweets
firecracker gum
blistering flaming lip smackers
and moldy sugarplums
Blue cotton candy,caramel dandies,gingersnaps
assorted sugared snacks,
bubblegum taffy stale rotten candy
are tough chewing tasks
the good stuff in my secret stash:
vanilla cream mashed between two oatmeal cookies
even tried vegan fruikies
my heart's desire...
spent several days sugar wired...still ain't tired
When tastebuds crave an everlasting taste
even toothpaste's nothing to waste
suck,never chew hot swallows in haste
found tastebud relief
gulped this 32oz. blizzard
topped with chopped strawberry twizzlers
Nighttimes mean euphoric wake dreams
cool whipped creamed baked desserts
milkshakes quenched my sugar thirst
Next an ice cream brainfreeze sprinkled with the works,
Ate three slices of icecream cake unthawed,
and an entire carton of chocolate marshmellow smorgasborgs
smothered in toffee fudge crunch and caramel popcorn munch
Baked treats make each morning time sublime
Sugared creamed pastries cake sweet
Saccarine cereal tastes surreal
Chocolate sprinkled ,vanilla milkshakes
completes morning meal
Then the entire day of sugar shock toothrot
indulgence at Treat 's Sweet Shop

Troy Tinsley Poem
Journey centuries passed
walk its trailblazers' path
old memories photographed
are sacred keys to Moab's past
Red sandstone canyons surround
an old western town
its sacred fertile ground
and white sunlight grew sunflowers
near burningwood powered
homes nestled in verdant canyon meadows
where oxen roamed and travelers settled
cooled by cloud color blend and snow capped Rocky Mountains
gracing blue twilight skies growing dark
over Canyonland Park
bordering Colorado River
beneath summer star glittered nights
and china pearl moonlight
Morning summer dream
day brings gentle air and amber tangerine skilight gleam
Nature's presents...eternal Earth's essence

Troy Tinsley Poem
Sight...as eyes embrace
A thousand words resonate
With each photograph they take
Taste...seed soil ,and harvest DNA
Remeberence of past flavors saturate
Intuition...the mind grasp hidden anger, joys and fears
Touch... As gentle hands embrace
Each takes the pulse of grace
Smell...Scent memory is retained as distance subtles fragrance
Lover's pheremones , our unburied dead
... and war's bloodshed
Hearing...As observant ears embrace
the words of joy, fear and all emotions resonate
As age deafens , unheard , is the sound of music and children's words
As death silences , the meaning of sound ends
As our first born's begins

Pretty autumn shades
vanish , seasons lay hidden

Troy Tinsley Poem
Intuitive attraction,closed eye interaction
spoken words braille's translation
dead silence amidst their hesitation
intuition their sacred present
through vacant eyes each felt the other's presence
in silence their hearts' rhythm is heard
as passions were observed
gentle hands touch facial expressions
their physical identity an unanswered question
Emotions...facial braille
sullen expressions,complexions pale
facial texture,old and smooth as fetal skin
both transcend first impressions
their kind words contradict facial braille expressions
beneath their aging veils , their true impressions
observed , yet both transcend timid nerves
Since birth their eyes were blind
neither yearned vision
their intuition lends its wisdom

Troy Tinsley Poem
As memory mirrors my younger days
I've chased my reflection in old age
My heart endured
Fear of death as I've waisted time searching for its cure
Failure ends my quest
In joyful acceptance , I feel no pain , regret
or fear...though death is near

Troy Tinsley Poem
Scarlet scars , an open wound
would summarize this ordeal of suicidal tendencies
damaged , the skin bares all frustrations
giving into temptation once to end deppression
and such destruction might've avoided past difficulties
by arousing suspicion
yet it's what treatment can't heal
fears clearer to caring eyes,then to herself
and an inherant wealth of personal pain
weighed hurtfully...emotional gravity...heart vacancy
relatives' deaths and unrealized dreams
pretentious display,is the envogue manner
keeping conversational inappropriates hidden
Her social diet quiet meditation ,journaling ,
asian tea and ancient medecinals
experimentation's spiritual
hoping their chemistry could suppress or at least ease insanity
yet impatience proves otherwise..narcotic overdose
to no one's suprise , modern news kills shock value
which death's your pleasure
the wiser transcend...human error
