Desolation's cries

Haunt humanity's conscience

Until they provide

poetinahat · Mar 25, 2006

Until they provide
means and opportunity
I doubt the motive

D.J. · Mar 25, 2006

I doubt the motive -
"My love above all others,"
shouts mere flattery.

kdnxdr · Mar 26, 2006

shouts Mere Flattery,
"YOU ARE THE GREATEST EVER!"
while the knife goes deep

while the knife goes deep
the worm wriggles north and south
Sunday catfish fry

Godfather · Mar 26, 2006

sunday catfish fry
saturday, a grilled tortoise
doesnt taste so nice

kdnxdr · Mar 26, 2006

doesn't taste so nice
your bitter words of malice
echoed by my mouth

poetinahat · Mar 26, 2006

echoed by my mouth
huffed tones on the pocket harp
hymn to Magic Sam

Pat~ · Mar 26, 2006

hymn to Magic Sam
i've got the chicago blues
strumming give me time

poetinahat · Mar 27, 2006

Strumming give me time
to think up the next line and
smile at the honeys

kdnxdr · Mar 27, 2006

smile at the honeys
as they walk the city mall
you can only dream

D.J. · Mar 27, 2006

You can only dream
trapped in this prison of walls -
office hours drag by...

Cassie88 · Mar 27, 2006

Office hours drag by
Sucking my life down the drain
And still there's more rain

Shwebb · Mar 27, 2006

And still there's more rain
Running down my face like tears
Wet tracks of sadness

Prosthetic Foreheads · Mar 27, 2006

Wet tracks of sadness
Dry spots of disappointment
Piles of bitterness

Stew21 · Mar 27, 2006

Piles of bitterness
Dish full of lemons and limes
A citrus tango

JAlpha · Mar 27, 2006

A citrus tango

his screwdriver glides beside

my fuzzy navel

Stew21 · Mar 27, 2006

my fuzzy navel
too much peach schnapps; needs more juice
I should stick with beer

poetinahat · Mar 27, 2006

I should stick with beer
said the poorly battered fish
Goodbye, Mr. Chips

Cassie88 · Mar 27, 2006

Goodbye, Mr. Chips
Hello, Mr. Potato
I treasure you both

Stew21 · Mar 27, 2006

I treasure you both
my precious boys, Kyle and Jack.
you're my heart, my life;

poetinahat · Mar 28, 2006

You're my heart, my life;
I heart you, but you soled me:
boots made for walkin'

kdnxdr · Mar 28, 2006

boots made for walkin'
traverse through the muddy woods
happy to explore

JAlpha · Mar 28, 2006

happy to explore
secrets of the universe
after my coffee

brokenfingers · Mar 28, 2006

After my coffee
I slip on my writing boots
and start a new day.
