Cinquain Train

Blarg · May 15, 2011

Grow old
with me, my love,
our ripe stinky cheeses
fermenting into something worth
slicing

Colin Fiat · May 16, 2011

Slicing
At my good name
With cutting sharp tongue wit?
Lets settle this like gentlemen
At dawn!

Ganesha · May 18, 2011

and leave
me awakened
to your crime committed
sugar in the gas breaks my car
karma

JohnL · May 22, 2011

Karma
is lazier
than most people know – it
waits for the moment when push comes
to shove.

kborsden · May 24, 2011

to shove
the door open
and then not pass through it
a closer inspection reveals
"please pull"

Blarg · May 24, 2011

"Please pull,"
she told Cary,
"harder, forget about
your Mount Rushmore face for just a
moment."

CDSinex · May 25, 2011

Moment
after moment
we lie awake and talk
as if to hold the dawn at bay
once more

Ganesha · May 26, 2011

once more
I pry the jaws
of time open to now
then they snap shut swallowing me
again

CDSinex · Jun 11, 2011

Again
it’s time for you
to go and me to stay
behind. A fate we each choose for
our selves.

Ganesha · Jun 11, 2011

our selves
a pack of lies
that tries to ignore me
I am the one who is the all
nothing

CDSinex · Jun 16, 2011

Nothing
left between us.
The bridge and road are out.
Storms took the last link and now there’s
nothing

Ganesha · Jul 2, 2011

nothing
contains it all
love can hold everything
a rainbow bridge from me to you
dear heart

B.D. Eyeslie · Jul 13, 2011

dear heart
do you hear me
when I cry to myself
will you pump one last pint of hope
purpose

kdnxdr · Jul 14, 2011

purpose -
gleaned from live's lived
molded to serve others
as an expression of God's love,
it's free!

CDSinex · Jul 17, 2011

It's free
you needn’t ask.
There are no strings, just this
one question. What will you want for
breakfast?

wyzguy · Jul 17, 2011

Breakfast?
No, I must go
To the one who can't know
About what happened after the show.
Fast break

DionS. · Jul 18, 2011

Fast break,
Next to slow work,
Is the only true sin
For which there needn’t ever be
A cause.

kdnxdr · Jul 18, 2011

a cause,
a grand escape
to higher purposes
beyond the nothingness of life;
who cares?

RyanLKing · Jul 20, 2011

Who cares?
I thought I did,
Maybe I could be wrong,
They say you only live once right?
Screw this.

kdnxdr · Jul 20, 2011

screw this:
twist it just right
where it is nice and tight,
screw it in through the long, hot night;
you're done

B.D. Eyeslie · Jul 22, 2011

You're done?
as quick as that?
I'm still kind of ... undone.
I said it was a marathon.
You sprint.

kdnxdr · Jul 24, 2011

you sprint,
hoping to win
knowing not what your prize
could have been; when you take your time,
it's sweet

RyanLKing · Jul 25, 2011

It's sweet,
That georgia peach,
Such tender flesh to taste,
Juices runnings down my chin,
Yummy.

onestepp · Jul 25, 2011

Yummy
sweet, chocolate
velvety, heavenly
fluffy as a white puffy cloud
heaven

kdnxdr · Jul 25, 2011

heaven
peaks through the clouds
reminding me, there's more -
like a parallel dimension
beyond
