Thanksgiving At DeadLove Manor
Hello, my brothers and sisters who occupy this creative writing atmosphere. Where the poets/poetesses are known for their hospitality here at DU. Cast your mind with me, folks. I’m gonna try something a little different, you’re all invited to Thanksgiving Dinner here at DeadLove Manor.
A turkey with all the trimmings and every side dish your mind could imagine. A dessert table filled with pies of many fillings and flavors. Wait a minute! That’s traditional and all, but we’re writers damn it. We march to our own drum, we’re anything but predictable.
I say we...

Their Beginning

Styxian
I woke up this mornin’
And I did not know what to expect
The sun was shinin’
The sky was blue
But in my heart something is comin’
Just did not know what yet
Adelphina
I am inspired and the words
Will not be contained.
DUP here I come
I will bleed for you all the joy and the pain
Styxian
What did I just read?
Did she just strike a match?
A poem about yellow jackets
I have to comment.
Something clever
Let me think on that ...

John and Jane Doe
We don't know each other
how our lives intertwine
a mystery to remain unsolved
and forever lost to time
He's John, and I'm Jane
Very ordinary common names
Met on an elevator ride
Standing close side by side
History has yet to be written
The present is what we're given
There could be a ring
on our fingers, and yet, tonight
this is not the question that lingers
Will he stay away
This is just for a night
A release to take the edge off
A release we both need tonight
Not...

Sit and Eat at Fia's
Come inside, everyone. I know this is the first time we all get to see each other in person. The music will get started at once Damien, Pete, and Me stop arguing over my eight-track collection.
“Who has 8 tracks anymore? I mean, really, FIA?” Me askes with a look of what the hell on their face.
Please leave your coats in the corner over there, get you guys a glass, and fill it with whatever. We have alcohol, and we have non-alcohol. Sorry, my daughter had an accident, and some of the labels were washed off, but if you're not sure, bring it to me, and...

Not Yet Swans
We were fooled last week
when so many things outside
were tipped in green
And though darkness is
your favorite color,
you disrobed from it
and kicked it under the bed
As you accepted Spring
to your bosom
as you shook your hair back
and offered your throat
to the kiss of something
renewing
all of your tips to pink
At first, I felt like a bird
fidgeting upon your window ledge
(edge of the bed)
I suffered the settling
for at least bread crumbs
Two pieces, ...

i hate-You?
I hate that I was attracted to you.
I hate that you affect me.
I hate wanting you.
I hate it all you see.
It started off great.
It was so sweet.
A twinkle in your eye.
I shuffled my feet.
Then you asked.
I said yes.
You wore a suit.
I wore a dress.
The meal was nice.
The talk was brief.
Didn’t want to say goodbye.
Didn’t want to go to sleep.
The night was perfect.
Intense was passion.

ragged-edges on my breath, on my body
The living room
had that cozy fall glow
as the day waned
and my body peaked
under your curiosity
The satin robe
I’d hidden in
pooled at my feet
like melted ice cream
as your knuckles
traced my collar bone
before you took me gently
to the floor
And made a crime-scene
outline around my body
with your exhale
My hair fanned on the carpet
skin dimpled with chills
as your lips
investigated
each white line
on my long body
My eyes squinched shut
fist balled ...

Fia
There’s a poetess that resides here
Who encouraged me to chase a dream
I had an idea that wasn’t always clear
A desperate writer with no real theme
She pushed me to find myself again
Another voice hanging out backstage
I cranked these amplifier's up to ten
She sprung me from my vicious cage
Thank you for believing when I didn’t
I owe a lot to the poetess named Fia

No Church Bells
We need to talk
Why do I feel my chest tighten or, like every nerve ending is firing at once
We need to talk
Nothing ever goes well with those types of words
I know what I told you
I should stop this. I know exactly where it's going, and my heart is slowly ripping apart.
I told you everything was over with me and her, but I also told you I would try to make it work.
Why is he still talking? I got it. I'm gone
I would like if we could still be friends
He would like it if we could...

My Platonic Lover
I never planned on meeting you
but there you are
sitting with a smile and not a clue
A hello started it all off
One moment led to another.
We became so close
No one would ever discover
The beginning of my platonic lover
You had someone, and so do I
What we both feel we cannot deny
You could feel the energy
Between you and me
But we keep this all inside
Physically, we do not touch.
A caressed word ignites a fire between us
Maybe one day and not in a dream
My platonic lover and I...
