POEMS AND SHORT STORIES
Poet Introduction
I write, and think, and paint, and draw, and read, and...
Simple
Sharp edges gleaming,
Dancing in twilight shadows,
Passion cuts deep wounds.
Blades whisper secrets,
Glinting in forbidden light,
Desire's cold embrace.
Dancing in twilight shadows,
Passion cuts deep wounds.
Blades whisper secrets,
Glinting in forbidden light,
Desire's cold embrace.

Autumn Leaves
I am surrounded by autumn leaves,
Their vibrant hues of crimson and gold,
Whispering tales of change and beauty.
The crisp air carries the scent of earth,
Dew-kissed mornings, and evenings in twilight,
Leaves gently falling like nature's confetti.
I walk through a carpet of russet and amber,
Each step a reminder of the cycle of life,
Nature's quiet song echoing in my heart.
The trees stand tall, their branches bare,
Yet full of grace and dignity,
Revealing the sky in its clear, blue splendor.
In this...

Revealing the sky in its clear, blue splendor.

Through keyholes' glimpse a world unknown,
mirrors reflect, a love has grown,
barriers crossed, where flaws are shown.
Silent wishes through locked embrace,
mirrors' glance, a hidden place,
keyholes open love's own space.
Eyes that meet in secret views.
Mirrors join what time renews.
Keyholes whispers breaking through.
Through barriers, one love takes flight.
Mirrors dance in a starry night.
Keyholes hold all dreams so tight.
Boundaries fade, all hearts align,
mirrors shine with love's design, ...

An Inspiration from Vision_of_Insanity's poem
Someone told you that you were a criminal.
Someone threw words into the air
and waited for you to pick them up:
CRIM and then INAL U R an SO ON soon.
But who said you can't be a criminal?
PURE F if you want to be so, the die is cast...
Like letters floating around you, satellites stationary.
U R I N A L C R E A M and many others.
W E R C R E A M in A L L the top cherries!
But who said you can't?
JuST a BuNCH of SNFLL MTHRFCKRS.
Wait, who said that?

Sensitive Heels
In ancient lands where heroes tread,
Achilles and Patroclus, their love widespread.
Through Trojan War, their bond was bold,
a tale of hearts, both fierce and gold.
With Troy behind, they journeyed on.
Their love's bright flame, a blazing dawn.
Olympic Gods, with hearts so kind,
bestowed their blessing fates entwined.
On fields of Elysium they roamed,
in laughter, joy, their spirits honed.
Achilles' strength and Patroclus' grace.
A love eternal, time can't erase.
In every battle, side by side, ...

A Sailor's Odyssey of Truths
Between the rocks of Scylla and Charybdes,
so voracious, so attractive, so hungry,
my heart sailed on a stormy sea.
Seeking the Mermaid, beauty in tenacious tone,
who lived on an island among the fearful abyss.
Maritime convulsions, disastrous results.
Scylla devoured the wanderers with her mouths.
Charybdes, the whirlwind, swallowed up the unfortunate.
In the cruel seas, the fearful sailed.
The islands were a mystery with a veil of illusion,
with shady palm trees and ivory beaches.
There my heart suffered, in solitude, ...

In twilight's embrace, bats take to the sky,
Silent wings whisper, 'neath moon's gentle eye,
Sunflowers sleep, while stars pass by.
Nocturnal ballet, bats in shadowed flight,
Sunflowers bask in daylight's bright might,
Their worlds apart, yet both bring delight.
Bats seek the night, where darkness unfolds,
Sunflowers chase the sun's gleaming gold,
Opposite rhythms, love stories told.
Echoes in the night, bats' songs unheard,
Sunflowers sway to the sun's every word,
Contrasting lives, love's magic stirred....

almost forgotten languages on the surface of a stone
I spent the night with my fingers buried
on some keys, damn typewriter,
they don't speak my language.
I have an old alphabet and you probably
never seen a carrier pigeon...
I struggle with these meaningless words,
out of context, code words
that try to signify love, desire, oblivion.
What about the numbers?
Ah, those malevolent signifiers of time,
of space and how many fingers we have then,
on each hand, how many times they touch
every year of your time, every letter of your name...
Each phase of the moon.

Happy 1000 Days
A thousand days have passed in fleeting grace.
Since first we met our pens began to dance.
In verses shared we found a common place
where words and rhymes in harmony enhance.
Unnoticed flew the days, in laughter, tears.
Through sonnets, odes, and haikus we did weave
our hearts entwined in stanzas, free of fears.
In poetry we found what we believe.
Each meeting brought a spark, a word, a phrase.
A world where dreams and passions intertwined.
In every line we traced the sun's bright rays.
We found the echoes of our kindred...

In twilight waters jellyfish glide,
soft tendrils dance a lover's guide,
umbrella skies above in love's tide.
Moonlit waves where hearts twine.
jellyfish glow, a luminous sign,
umbrellas whisper: "You are mine."
Beneath the sea, in secret dreams,
jellyfish drift, where romance gleams
umbrellas shelter love's true beams.
Waves caress in a tender sweep.
Jellyfish pulse in the ocean deep.
Umbrellas hold the vows they keep.
In the depths, where love will flow,
jellyfish shine their lights...

Balls
Balls bounce high and low.
Joyful laughter fills the air
of games we love and know.
Rubber spheres in flight.
Echoes of a child's delight.
Sunshine warms the sight.
Park's a playground bright.
Kicking, tossing, in full light,
energy's pure might.
Day turns into dusk.
Bouncing slows yet spirits bask
in the joy of play.

Knights stall around the table
Mirror, mirror on the wall
Error, error and that's all
Horror, terror and a fall
Warriors attend a call
Summoning in a mall
Everyone's a pall
