Us to be what we’re not
Then I’m superman

If a poet wants
To roll in the dough they should
Marry a baker

A poet preserved by their craft
Today’s storm is tomorrow’s draft
Tonight’s darkness, tomorrow’s light
Time alone is time to write
~
Time without leaves space within
Whether or not we choose to begin
Space’s filled with unchosen weather
That’s why a quill floats like a feather
~
Writing out the storms, blue sky always brighter
Showers of tears make the heart feel lighter
Rainbows get a page or two, hurricanes get quite a few
And storms better weathered in a blanket shared by two

Bovine Comedy-
Time begets flavor
A punch-line’s uttered moot when
Milked prematurely
~
Poetry Happens-
Poetry, a noun
Simple, thoughtful, clever words
Or the verb that’s life
~
Old (Foxy) News-
Redhead’s always fair.
Redheaded Libra’s always-
Fair and well-balanced

Simplicity:
The philosophies
Of life written in haiku
Sharing simple thoughts
~
Libraries Don’t Lie:
A writers volume
Shelved in mind, read in the heart
Writ in tears of joy
~
Share and Care:
Caring’s not sharing
One can care for all, share none
Sharing is caring

Point of View
My thoughts here and there
Some might think it bi-polar
I, everywhere
*
Random Poets Truths
Since dreaming writing
I’ve experienced that a
Dragon tale is long
*
Colorful and Hue-less
A pallets last drip
Useless to most, not much fun
Lest ye paint in prose

We see in two dimensions, why do we need three?
When depth’s always hidden within you and me
Like engraved images in a dusty old book
Just flat lines multiplying the closer we look
.
A ball’s three dimensional, though all the same
Dribbled on flattened courts, we all call a game
Shooting for stars – settling for net
Thinking two dimensionally that’s all you get
.
We’ve all the axes: X, Y and Z
Why would one not think in 3D?
This third dimension’s for all to score
Winners share in its depth evermore

Is it good or is it bad?
Or a little from column A and B?
Which averages (I think) to an OK C
A C never gotten, if no A or B
~
Words and numbers never bad
Blank sheets always lonely and sad
Thoughts of mind are better when seen
And OK thoughts are better than the mean.

Is poetry sad or happy
profound or witty
frightening or humorous
perhaps ironic, sarcastic or snarky
Or maybe it’s all of thus
different like all of us

Fulfilled-
A poet’s dessert
Tortes of love, sorrow and joy
Sticky sweet sonnets

Red Meat-
Poetic fillet
A delicious butchery
Bloody words skewered

First Course-
The poets hunger
Raw emotions slide past lips
Word salad with oil

Life of an artist
Create, eat, sleep and play by night
Sell yourself by day

There is a fine line
Between imagination

Think before striking
Wounds go deep, words go deeper
A tongue’s double edged

A pebble that’s skipped
Is forever forgotten
Boulders turned, never

Roses are red with leaf of green
Their thorns prick, barely seen
Beneath all beauty lie the dark
A field of dreams gone with a spark
~
Beauty’s a mask of colors we choose
Peel the drape and feel the ooze
Nightmares happen when we snooze
Rainbows lie, violets are blues

I think.
I write.
I think I write.
I write, I think.
I think I write to think.

Conformity bleeds souls
Souls bleed the heart
The heart bleeds blood
Blood bleeds life
Life bleeds insanity
Insanity bleeds ink
Ink bleeds poetry
Poetry bleeds puddles
Puddles don’t conform

Great writes few.
Good writes great.
Bad write’s good.
No writes bad.
*
No writes wrong.
Write to know.
Time to write.
Right the time.
*
Time is left.
Make good time.
Write to make.
Write to write.
