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...

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...

Solace In Chicago
I got lost in the depths of Chicago tonight
Swaying to the horn sections sonic assault
Catching the beat with a melody so bright
Hearing this rhythm burning hot as asphalt
Smooth transition into another catchy hook
A walking bass line marches with the drums
Piano is simmering as vocals begin to cook
A blazing guitar solo where each note hums
Sometimes when this world gets out of hand
I find solace in music from some classic band
.. Tonight I found solace in Chicago

I'm happy just to know you're there
On occasion, our paths cross:
fragments of interaction
encouragement
kindness
laughter
Even more infrequently, a conversation:
immediately comfortable
close and vulnerable
deep support
understanding
more laughter
I won't tell you
how these connections light up my heart
To say it aloud
would bring a weight of expectation
I don't care
if it's mutual or not
I'm happy just to know you're there
When we are nothing but starlight
I'm...

In The Hereafter
Write a better world with lovely words
Don’t listen to negative songs of sorrow
Empty souls will fall on wicked swords
Hope stirs in a wind that holds tomorrow
Listen to the voice inside this old heart
Still taking comfort in this familiar beat
Believing that our lives could imitate art
There is no surrender we won’t retreat
As long as breath fills these aging lungs
Beneath the tears remains bright laughter
Hate’s never uttered by creative tongues
Bringing about real change in the hereafter
...

Bill (Billy_Snagg)
All of you ladies out there
Turn up your radios
I’m about to tell you something
You may want to know
You know things
They’re not always what they
Appear to be…”
Listen real close
So you can see what I see
A romantic at heart
He will sweep you off your feet
I know, I know, it’s hard to believe
But trust me
I wouldn’t steer you wrong
Take it from me
A world worn, love weary traveler
I’ve had my share of relationship-defeat
Here’s always there ...

Lotus Flower (dimpy)
Innocence’s bliss
On a rugged path
Men
Beneath your feet
Declared
You sultry-sweet
Your petals
Opening elegantly
For all you have lost
What other’s can’t see…
Girl, smile
Bloom
Be magnificently
You
On a rugged path
Men
Beneath your feet
Declared
You sultry-sweet
Your petals
Opening elegantly
For all you have lost
What other’s can’t see…
Girl, smile
Bloom
Be magnificently

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

Celestial Light
Planets aligned like mine
At a different time
Same…inclination(s)
Tour guide
Life guide
When I thought
Spirituality
Belonged…elsewhere
Your patience
Kindness
Acceptance
Encouragement
Showed me
That celestial unity
Community
Spirituality
Resides on a
Much lower plane
I couldn’t be more
Grateful
That you reached
Out to me
From DUP
My found family
Ahavati, I...

Acclaim
Learn from every lesson
Overcome your fears
Life's a daily blessing
Wipe away those tears
Face the lonely silence
Puff your chest, be bold
Show them your defiance
Express your best, bestowed
Claim the brightest flame
Trust in you, forsee
Rise to the acclaim
Faith's eternal key
Overcome your fears
Life's a daily blessing
Wipe away those tears
Face the lonely silence
Puff your chest, be bold
Show them your defiance
Express your best, bestowed
Claim the brightest flame
Trust in you, forsee
Rise to the acclaim
Faith's eternal key
