Together Time

Posted in Image Poetry, One Stop Poetry with tags , , , , , , , , , , , on March 8, 2011 by dustus


My love craves sweet together time
For life affirms emotions bared

As if stars shine like Coldplay lines
My love craves sweet together time
On beachfront sand we lay supine
One soul suspends like salt in air
My love craves sweet together time
For life affirms emotions bared

Seaward Sent ( #oneshotwednesday poetry )

Posted in Image Poetry, One Stop Poetry with tags , , , , , , , , , , on February 15, 2011 by dustus

Eroding shoreline—noxious cloud
Bloody chum fed to sharks
After being asked out of love
Lampoons knife hooked hearts

Assailing claims this sodden course
Frail lists from sunk outpost
Unlike this boat, some ships won’t float
Seaward sent; blowhard boasts

What I believe remains naive
Low tide for trips not smart
Waiving emotion, capsized grief
No lighthouse guide through dark

Garbage Dumps – (for #oneshotwednesday )

Posted in One Stop Poetry, Poetry with tags , , , , , , , , , on February 8, 2011 by dustus

Garbage Dumps

When only for a second care
Realize you’re trashing life
Dispatching unacceptable
Won’t make me feel alright

Damp landing filled with fecund will
Truth in fiction taken
There’s something rotting through stank pulp
Burnt stakes may awaken

Congealing molds incubate colds
Scared crows peck for hours
Decaying matter breaks rank ground
Garbage dumps sprout flowers
