Sam I Am (SamNash)
Sam I am
Or hope to be
Like he
Though he’d deny
Why
My friend Sam
The not so simple man
I lead the caravan
Me, his number one fan
See, it goes something like this
For us dreamers who’s lives have gone amiss
We look to the one whose compass doesn’t drift
Even though he thinks he doesn’t have a grip
It’s how he roams these halls
His vulnerabilities telling all
He’s the kind of guy who thinks he’s small
When quite honestly, he’s the tallest of all
He’s not afraid to tell us of his kinks ...

Keith (Vision_of_insanity)
Not afraid to cut people with his ink
Often saying the quiet part out loud
Throwing barbs from the kitchen sink
He knows how to provoke the proud
Underneath the darkness there is light
Hidden in metaphor or lurking in humor
Doesn’t pull punches or throw the fight
A warning to the fainthearted consumer
Sticks and stones often break bones
While words bring out honest results
So put down the fucking smartphones
He’s taking down cults and weak adults
His visions are packed full of insanity
It’s just the world as...

False Friends
False pictures around my face
False hands around my place
Can't breathe behind this haze
No, this isn't some temporary phase
Enemy or friend
To fall or to stand
Can you tell me when does it end?
Your smiling means to hate
Same words from the same tape
Lying and fake
It's plain to see, but hard to take
Going over the thin ice
Before you speak think twice
You rape my mind with lies
Read the novel, Lord of the Flies
It's kicking me in my head
It's driving me fuckin' mad
I can't believe...

Appreciation
Hello to everyone
I was going to make this a speak easy thread, but I wasn't sure all of you would be up to reading a thread. I just want to thank all of you who have entered my competitions in the past and the current ones.
I am so happy to be part of this DUP community. The openness of the writing, whether dark or erotic, is fantastic. Everyone has their reasons for writing and what they want the reader to feel, and we tend to go off course sometimes of what the writer meant. At the same time, the fact that we felt anything at all is a plus.
I'm not going to go too far into...

starlight
in a moment blink back your tears
be strong in your bare state
swaying in the pain
with the knowledge, they are your savior
quietly save your visions and dreams
what a wonderful day
where you can wander among the tear-stained murals
art born of your sorrow
differing in color and shade
the shadows of hurt surround you
clothing you in wisdom spun from your doubt
a patchwork dress each patch a day in your life
splendid in color and design
your gentleness of thought glows in your solitude
in your reverie, you...

{un}still life study
I want you to know me
in ways no one ever has before
or will again
beyond the weight...
of my breasts cupped in your palms
beyond the curve of my ass in your grasp
as my hips undulate
matching your rhythm
I want you to study me
research my thoughts
my heart
memorize my memorabilia
...for later
learn every contour & scar
immerse yourself in them
into my being
until you feel who I am
at a molecular...spiritual level
just as you bury the heft of your aggression ...

I UNDERSTAND
I understand,
and take your hand.
No words needed,
you are heeded
through eye contact
and the impact
of your embrace
right in this place.
Few tears are shed
when hearts have bled.
And then you say,
hair brushed away,
"I knew you'd be
coming to me.
You've known me long,
you're my heart's song.
"You know, your face
can always chase
away my woes,
because - God knows -
you're an angel
in my trouble.
They broke the mould
of you. You're...
and take your hand.

Sometimes I Daydream
I want to sleep next to you
Want to watch you breathe
Want to put my arm around you
I know I'll get hard
But
Ignore that
This is platonic
Unless it's not
And
We'll know if that happens...

GET OUT OF MY LIFE
Let's take a moment to analyze, as we reflect upon the uncrossing, of our history and life 💖 together. 🤔 For sure I have been very grateful enough to know when it's over and done , between us but yet I truly wonder is it really over between us. 🤨. For it is true that we have so much history together, it would be a shame to watch it go away and never truly return. 😔 Yet I know it would be best for me and you, being that we are always fighting and arguing back to back and going at each other like cats and dogs. 🤨 Almost to the point of no return from...

Anabasis
No victory is victory
without some type of loss;
a cost too often some won't see,
like a greedy boss.
He knows the bucks that he must spend
and those that must stop here,
but all the rest will be his friend
much more than any peer.
And so in effort he must win
come hell or water high,
where freedom lets his greed begin,
and warriors to die.
And that's why payoff needs to be
where only colleagues tread
into a future, equally,
so no one winds up dead.

Salt of Life
still remember
the day i arrived
silenced bird with
disfigured wings
insecure about
everything but
willing to evolve
you came my way
spoke of sound
enjambment
onomatopoeia
rhythm and flow
showed me how
to cut & prune
paved the way
to better writes
but the thing that
inspires me most is
your...
