nightmare

Sat, 06 Mar 2021 08:44:42 +0000

The beast extends its talons and its tongue
For me the bells have surely tolled and rung
The drool has pooled about my toes and dress
With it my blood is soon to coalesce

But though my body screams with primal fear
Its jaws have not a canine front to rear
Confusion breaks the hold on life and limb
Its mouth I pluck a tooth from on a whim

It steps back shrinking down in size aghast
Its face a man’s that shatters into glass
The nightmare’s end comes with a lucid calm
I wake in peace though something’s clutched in palm

mountain

A mountain towers high above a hill
The lesser summit stays a victory still
When dawn arrives the sun is tinged with grief
One’s bed provides a measure of relief

A day with plans that once seemed only bright
Falls victim to a curse that leaves a blight
Upon your mind, will friends become estranged?
They’d rather see you well so rearrange

A shower cleanses yet its waters sting
To bathe can sometimes seem a daunting thing
So even though your hair might be a mess
It makes you no less worthy of caress

Each bio should be poetry
Acrostic and AABB
They should say what you like to do
And someone will swipe right on you
Sadly I have never met a
Soul that checked each line’s first letter

Hey girl you should know that I have eyes for only you
Can’t tear my gaze away regardless of your headwear’s hue
It’s a condition with my vision and here are all the facts:
Can’t fix those it afflicts and it is known as hataracts

dismay

Why does a cat wander
Just when of it you’re getting fonder
Onto the road in rush hour
And quickly there cower
But not run away
Much to your dismay

Poems are sure
To help people explore
The meaning of life
And some can cause great strife

A towel is a tool
That is very usefool
So many things it’s used for
It starts to make your head sore
