A Message For You
Since today is Thanksgiving, I wanted to reflect on a couple of things.
And no, there will not be any murder, death, debauchery, orgasms, bizarre antics or twisted endings in this message. I'll save that for tomorrow.
I've been here since January of 2024. I have enjoyed this site immensely. The best part of this site was reading other people's poetry. Were all different. We all tackle life the way we believe it should be tackled. Your viewpoints and ideas we'll probably be different then mine or someone else's. That's ok. It creates a unique individual that will shed light...

Vitamin D (Duende)
She’s the bones you can’t break
Her vulnerability
Stronger than Hercules
Her quest for healing
Inspiring
Her poetry astounding
Honesty and bravery
Riveting
Her word play is out of this world
Instantly attracted to her aura
I knew my life would never be the same
I’m fortunate to have her in my corner
Encouraging me
Getting me ready for the fight
Bandaging my cuts
Soothing my bruises
Giving me the motivational words I need
Then softly pushing me to get back in the ring
(in the way only...

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...

Her (Mary)
She is someone who is there when you need her
She can be tough
Her words can be a sword
She can be forgiving
When she knows it is well-meant
Life has not been easy for her
She is brave to say it without an apology
Hoping to help someone afraid to be brave
She holds her head high
Even in the midst of tears rolling down her cheeks
A light when you need one
A red light when he needs one
But in either light, she shines brightly
She can be tough
Her words can be a sword
She can be forgiving
When she knows it is well-meant
Life has not been easy for her
She is brave to say it without an apology
Hoping to help someone afraid to be brave
She holds her head high
Even in the midst of tears rolling down her cheeks
A light when you need one
A red light when he needs one
But in either light, she shines brightly

HARD OR SOFT...WHICH?
MY
mind and attention
was on something
else when I heard
the question:
"Hard or soft?"
Back to reality,
I asked, "What?"
The question again
as my hand was touched
"Do you prefer hard or soft?"
"OH,
please, I prefer my eggs
hard boiled," I said
to the waiter.
"Mine too," the waiter replied.

I Cut Myself and Thought of You
That's the kind of relationship we have
Mundane household chore
Blade went too far, just a slice
Clean, surgical in nature
It was that kind of week
Unsettling
It's not so bad though
I have you to share my pain
You appreciate gore and perversity
Unintentional
Had it been self harm
Well, there's always tomorrow

grace
I break a little in the knowing
wonderment of soul
escapes a breath
tender tears run
you catch them in your hands
little crystals of faith
I am a woman of hope
in the becoming...lovely
with a spirit of gratefulness
I give thanks
so happy to be on this journey with you
through the pain
finding the truth of it
inside myself I evolve more and more
into a woman of grace
you are more complex than I expected
how can one take in everything at a glance?
you are worthy of many life's...

.Meet me tonight
For it's been three years married and 11 years since we met 💕 Meet me in the garden of roses 🌹 SURROUNDED by the power of God's love, with the rosary flowers that you and I planted together. One day upon a starry night with it's perfect night of the aroma scents. THAT blows and comes out with the whispers and sounds of the birds in the tree of life. For your present is much needed to make this happen between you and I, as we shall forever remember the time ⌚of our lives. Just you and I alone in the night vibes expressing, the deepness of the love and happiness and the...

Everyone Has A Lover
I'm dazzled by her beauty
The stories she tells
The songs she sings
The things I learn from her at all times of the day and night
Regretfully , I use her and abuse her sometimes
Carelessly discarding her or leaving her at the mall
But
When my fingers wrap around her delicate frame I am beguiled by her tight little holes.
A frame so fragile that a sudden bump could damage her seriously
I know all the buttons she has for me to press and I press them often and instinctively
She comes alive when I look at her or sometimes just say hello ...

Stay
Rest your weary feet
Now that you've become
Your echoes re-released
Staring at the sun
These paths have been explored
You showed them all the way
You've done it all before
Now you're here to stay
Now that you've become
Your echoes re-released
Staring at the sun
These paths have been explored
You showed them all the way
You've done it all before
Now you're here to stay

Reciprocity (featuring Naajir)
there is no drift in him
he moves with unwavering purpose
strong & determined steps
focused
confident in his stride
solid in his bearing
certain of where he's going
it's not in him to sit idle
he's a man of action
willing to reach with passion
for what attracts him
recognizing the beauty & balance
of femininity
he guards with all his heart
the strength of their fragility
he does this not because she's weak
but because she is important
a time worn warrior
full of honor & discipline ...
