KEEP IT REAL[/b]
Keep it Real; don’t let your passion become a distraction.
Keep It Real; sincerity is your scripture, truth your guild.
Keep It Real; don’t obscure the light with vague intangibles.
Keep it Real! Stay credible![/center]

Love, the only power
I truly believe in
red as the lipstick
on the black hole
of my open mouth
let the music
of my incessant ache
ease its blood
like a pulse
throughout me

BREATHE POETRY
Breathe Poetry; inhale life, exhale love.
Breathe Poetry; let words compose music.
Breathe Poetry; with each expiration
Let there be creation.
Breathe Poetry; least your soul
Becomes a black hole.
Now, take a deep poetic breath.

When it hurts
and stings
and I feel
I can bear the pain
no longer
the light bursts
inside me
Come unto me
the dark
cold-weary
diseased of the world
then passion
rinses me
clean
and stings
and I feel
I can bear the pain
no longer
the light bursts
inside me
Come unto me
the dark
cold-weary
diseased of the world
then passion
rinses me
clean

giving in is not an option
positive realism my adoption
tinged with love light lit
no more moaning, no more shit

My mood is made much lighter
By making love to you
Karma Sutra is our scripture
Always showing something new
We merge with passion
Thank heaven above
At our weekly session
We're united in love

Global warming is a threat
I hope we can avoid
We must carve the future
So we are not destroyed
Time is not on our side
We are heading for a void
With nowhere to hide

Appreciate the entries. Keep them coming more...in all de shortness n preciseness dear poets.
Would only say, kindly try to thread in all de three subset words in a given option. It would be grt if u use the exact word, else its nearby equivalent...and adhere the word limits. Nothing more or less, is the comp:)
Some replies are away from the rules, would suggest them to modify.
So why wait, watz ur mantra dis 20-15..

O,infinite chalice of innocent Night
Ignite the fierce flame of Bright
Praise psalms,hymns embarked,Blessed be thy Light
From the viral egg,wombed embrace,hallowed Earth
Corpulating through rebirth`s Woe
Chalice,Ifinite,O
(goes for both themes 1 and 3)

The light; the scripture taught us passion.
It taught us love as we listened to music
called “Black Hole Sun”.
Our hope; our dream.
We are the sculpture of time.
And the future of past.
