RiP
On sea crests where shadows weave
the sky frown down sullen grey
here she stand in silence grieve
her sobs stifled with sorrow lay
tears as rain like whispers lost
tales told of love within the brine
her hair wild and wind tossed
yet mocking the sunlit waves did shine
she swims and beckons from the tide
she drowns beauty lost in gloom
her essence in waves and breeze
in this sea she reaches for home
the ocean's sorrow swell
hold her tight in its embrace
her haunting song and spell...

The Naked Poet!
For those artists
That have sketched, etched, charcoaled
And painted me, whilst i'm modelling
The only difference is
That i'll be reading prose, as i pose, i suppose
For those spillers of fabulous words, and music
And any creative performer that have heard my words
The only difference
Is that i'll be posing, whilst i'm prosing, i'm supposing
But there is an element of doubt
Whether i want my everything to hang out
My concern, is not about being discreet
It is my genuine requirement for heat!

Journey to the Stars
We’re launching a journey to the stars:
a flight of imagination,
a pilgrimage of poetic memoirs,
a hullabaloo of creation.
No jet fuel, ego, or money required
to conquer the world’s gravity;
only thoughtful hearts and minds inspired
will gain us escape velocity.
We don’t carry weapons or millionaires
on this rocket from Underground –
just stories and words, rhythms and prayers,
until each of us is crowned.
We’re led by a loving, Eerie spark
on a path that’s uniquely ours:
to become the lights drowning out...

To the writers of Deep Underground Poetry
Often quietly lurking in the shadows
As thoughts flowed through our pens
Years spent sharing our our stories, and journeys
I'm proud to have called each of you my friend
I'm sad to hear of the sites ending in May
I'll sure miss all of you!
May we find a new landing place
I'm happy to have called the underground my home
And sad that it's time we all move along
I wish you all the greatest farewell
Never stop writing your master pieces
There are still stories you have to show and tell!
- your friend krissy! 🩷

A Farewell to DUville Residents
within my glowing screen words take flight
the portal opens a gathering of souls
congregation of people in silent nights
weaving their worlds in soft twilight
Cryptic lines as riddles to find
philosophies that bent the mind
erotica written seductive whispers
tender and raw in inviting
verses
we wrote of love with tender grace
wove words that pined of days gone by
memories regrets passion and wishes
yet another wrote with logic firm
embrace practical truth someone's way
beautiful thoughts as gifts in...

Farewell DU: A Community's Last Stand.
To James_A_Knight
I tried to comment on your last posted poem ("Are We Lost? - My Last Poem on DUP - Goodbye, everybody. Huge thank you to everyone")—however, unlike others, the site kept giving me a message that the title was too long and would not accept my comment.
Your poem is an incredible example of the talent here on Deep Underground Poetry. The heartfelt message you left should be read by everyone.
With the news that the site is closing, it's really sad to observe so many broken hearts. The...

Reverie in Warner Theatre
Listening in the dark
just Jason and his guitar
reminding me of all the times
I've been betrayed
by my own rhymes
and constructed phrases
I'm okay with it
in a crooked smile, shiny eyes
kind of way
All the love songs (and poetry)
do mean different things today
and while that may hurt
in the moments you realize they do
there's some comfort in that truth
Every note, clear as a bell
fills the hushed theatre
and finds me in my seat
turning pages of memories
while I etch this one

Shut Up and Write (Posted 9/9/2022)
when I first arrived at DUP
was still bright eyed
wanted to explore my creative side
had a few people look my way
built me up as their play thing
when done they tried to push me aside
but I refused to die
fought back and became the bad guy
a new generation came
the ones before left or changed
I just been trying to find my place
amongst the mundane
do I hold resentment?
fuck yeah I still hold resentment
those same poets act like such victims
writing for attention

DUP, Starsrite and me
Dear everyone
Before I start I would first like to express my great heartfelt sorrow at knowing that Deepundergroundpoetry is closing down. DUP had been a second home to me and to many poets like myself. I have met many friends, read some amazing words, poems and stories that touched my heart and made me the person who I am right now. But most of all I’m very grateful to the owners of DUP and everyone who has worked relentlessly to bring together such a great community of poets and writers under their wings. I also know how difficult it is to make such a site work, and what...

14 years sharing my verse
loving some of you in my poems
As friends and lovers
As collaborators washing one another in ink
Spilling blood in the fires of Hell
In the bliss Of ecstacy
Makes Parting ways a torturous death
My heart is breaking for those who will never know
For those I love so dearly, never to share rhymes and lines
If you want collaborate as bards or other arts
Write me at jjpoetryman@gmail.com
Hear my song at https://youtube.com/@jjjohnson4177

As you have painted my heart
