Poetry Contest

What can you do with 10 lines? You can write anything your heart desires but it can only be 10 lines. I will also add the winner to my reading list.

Radio frequency
        los-ing
                 sig-nal
I raise my head slowly
Like static erecting the hair of my arms
You won’t be able to reach me, dear
Because I am currently
       Numbing
   Numb
Zzzz

a diamond supersized
beauty un-prized
a dream realized
reality fantasized
a path untried
bindings untied
an easily followed guide
love replied
a tear of joy cried
humanity unified

I'm losing all that's in my head ~ so slowly
I walked this lonely path, now I fear I'm dead

Hold me close please!

There is only cold in these hands of mine
You're heart is where I wish to hide

out of time ~ out of time ~ out of time

Why won't you let me inside?
Inside that twisted head of yours?

too much time ~ too much time ~ too much time

To think

Heart and Soul

soft crystal lights prismed
golden hues among the grey
eyes meeting holding promises
more than meeting they coalesced

Breathing pulsed fused intertwined
beating rhythm within the pod

daring heart brave soul
strumming lines of melodies
harmonious as choirs of angels
they love together in eternal dance.

CLOSER

Day get longer
when you get closer
my heart beats faster
when you are closer

when you get closer

I feel like a better man
I want to be the best me
I can be

I know that I am deeply in love
When you are this close but I want you to get closer

~O~

I wanna host a thread like an upstart
Hold a place on the list of a xXShattered-HeartXx
Then I wanna come back and take it
The whole thread, I wanna shake it
Call it a lark...yeah, I wanna put the horse after the cart
I wanna Rag a Brother with frequency
I wanna Chump the next chump who writes after me
I wanna do it while not being Pseudonymous
Leaving Grace to sayeth to Simon,
“Why in The World did he do this?”

Will She Won't She

Yes means yes and no means no
This is the way seduction should go
The fact that her clothes she's discarded
Does not mean virtue is unguarded
She may be willing to let you fuck
If she does you're in luck
But you must wait until she permits
You inside those sexy bits
Intercourse should always be
A mutual act you both agree

hares where dreams get interesting

I'd a dream where I tried to catch a red hare
with a gun, a snare and a whole lot of anger
she must have sensed the danger afoot
'cos no matter how hard I tried
every time I blinked my eye she jumped
hard left, then right then hard left again
and then she'd stop and look my way
and look at that way that says is that all that you've got
you haven't fired one single shot, old man
worry not I replied, I'm just warming up

You say we all bleed red
now breed me with your sins
don't let me go insane
I ain't feel the same
I ain't feel that way
Just take me to the edge
go breed me with your sins
and let things go away
do you feel the same?
are we all the same?

So that moment when you realize that it only taken you 2 minutes to get 7 years worth of feelings back
When it wasn't that easy to lose.
We talked just for 2 minutes and I'm already falling over hills for you
In those 2 minutes I remembered all the happy times we've had together
The long nights we shared
The laughs we've had
Not one's did I think about the tears I've shade
All the nights you wasn't there
And it only takes me 2 minutes to start falling over hills you
DAMN!!! was it easy to lose feelings for you NO!!! I DONT THINK SO

Hi..
hey dear!
how are you?
I'm doing pretty fine.
Woah! that's really cool, huh.
Yeah, I thought you left town?
No; I never did, I've been around.
Though in an enclosed town called DUP town.
What's the meaning of DUP town? help me understand.
DUP means Deep Underground Poetry, a great website for writers.

She loves.....me!
She loves me....not!
She loves.....hey!
I thought you had more fingers than this?
I've never liked that wild eyed look on you
But the custom duct tape does accent your face
Oh lucky day, you still have all your toes
Now where was I, oh yes, she loved....me!
I just remembered what I don't like about toes
They don't pull off as easy as fingers.
