POETRY TAG AUGUST 09 EDITION (Page 5)  Zhya: Modern Day Robots By: Rizlake2 Opening up Closing down Nearby or far from home They say I've got it all Then why feels my heart this empty It blew a hole in my soul Emptiness fills my day Weeks go by and months will pass But nothing can bring back The joy of life For being lived is far from living © Rizlake2 2009 Zhya: Stuck In Traffic By: Gare_Bear Stuck....waiting for miles The miles turn to hours and the hours to days... My mind..in a glaze wanders to the left Where a car sits idle Idle as we all are Sitting Stuck in traffic is my mind Like a huge block in the water works just building up pressure Waiting...waiting...waiting Waiting to explode To let loose with all this And be free yet again To move like the wind moves through the hair of the woman beside me To move as the inches do in this traffic ridden highway This highway which is my mind Still stuck.. Waiting © Gare_Bear 2009  X: "Cherry Blossom Eyes" by Roo Chasing the night, High upon star studded skies Erotic, Evasive Properties Render my thoughts its like Revenge for all things done, Yesterday. Bold in my outright lazy days of suntanning Or doing nothing at all So soon my life has drifted by Succumbed to my own lack of will Ordinarily this wouldnt be a problem Mostly, just now in these weak few hours Eerie Nights, left alone to my own thoughts Yet, beautiful in their own right. Ever forgetting the spell you cast Savouring the Day of Cherry Blossom Eyes © 2009 Roo X: "To Tame the Beast" by X Cobra coiled beneath my arm Aloof to any pleading or charm Many have attempted to tame this beast And many have failed, to say the least But somehow, it responds to me Playing my intended melody If I should falter just a bit It will reward me with a blast of shit But a lifetime of practice has paid off well And on symphony night, I give them hell Horn is a beast, but can be tamed And in my hands, puts others to shame © 2009 X X: "Volcano" by romanticpoet777 charming formidable she took me into the depths of the ocean we began on a simple plane called earth cascading through the deepend horizons of our existence wishful thoughts and regrets all unfiltered and vivid in our minds every action, word, and deed presented to us in clarity beckoned and consumed with fear we kneel before this being luminous and full of fire his anger was quick and he erupted like a seething volcano the judgement set upon us, mortals too ignorant to understand the blood that must be paid the debt of our consequences seen in the universe tis it was saw fit to imprison us deep into the swimming twirl of a black hole a place where no light can escape, not even the great angels of heaven so there i laid musing and contemplating my fate wondering, and wandering in this blackness forever night fall the tumultious journey, a simple naivety of love all ending in ruin because of pure ignorance so take heed to whoever recieves my message be vigil and fervent in your quest into the unknown for in the realm of nothingness you will achieve enlightenment take this ability and unignorate the others who seek the ignorance beyond this realm © 2009 romanticpoet777 X: "Abroad At Sea" by GaRe_BeAr as i float upon this sea of glass looking into the abyss and seeing myself looking back wandering if this is me...or if its who im supposed to be... abroad at see, with nothing but my thoughts covering the vast ocean floors that change like the winds change the desert desolate it is here...abroad at sea wait! whats that? some shinging shimmering incandescent little nothing in the distance what could it be swim fast, swim hard you must you must you must..... in my hands.. holding it now.. what is it? open them and you shall see, open these hands and revealed to you will be..a most amazing epiphany like the light at the end of the tunnel it shines bright carries me through this ever so dull, drismal, and dark night abroad at see with my light i am now! the glass shatters and the sea slips away but here i am to stay for i have found what i am..and that is just this... abroad at sea © 2009 GaRe_BeAr X: "Pondering for Pondering's Sake" by Amad3us Each good thought of mine is a rainbow-beauty Each thought is a creator Followed closely by a new experience. Sometimes people cherish the negative Thoughts; getting a kind of pleasure From the fear, jealousy, and doubt They feel is necessary. Each thought has a power It's own way of creating The neagtive has the greatest power Destruction of the creator. The negative thought comes Thieving from our penseive mood We have to feel as if this thought Has come for theft For, if we lose something Perhaps from our inner life And we have no reason for this? We feel lost without being lost. Just something to ponder for pondering's sake. © 2009 Amad3us X: "Meaningful Contradiction" by Zhya Hear the children Who listen well To a future ever lost While anchors cling to chairs Performing unhealthily For envious crowds Listen well to see clearly Of a meaningful existence Stepping stones evacuate An evertorn addiction Contradict another This something limp in rags Burst before a silence Revolving awkward hags Sheepishly renewing Their child prodigies Masking ever carefully A wake of aptitude © 2009 Zhya X: "Leaflet Pantry" by The_Southern_Gemmy The Wide Varitiy Of Great Substances To Many To Choose A Grumbling Belly But Alot Of Weight To Lose Screaming Im Hungry But I Still Dont Know What I Want Sitting Here Indecive But Still Ill Look At The Pantry One More Time Alas I Found Something Time To Eat © 2009 The_Southern_Gemmy X: "Whispering Cadences" by itskristinab*tch i like to sit and look at dark sky to see the stars glimmering like billions of unset jewels burning brightly in the sky i feel a calmness full it my mind and soul peace, and understanding whilst i look out into the universe it speak to me in soft whispers, beckoning me to go home to fly amongst those silent stars a noise, another source of light distracts me my cadence of thoughts is lost to the intrusion thought he thoughts are gone, and were transient at the moment i'll will never forget what the universe had to say to me in her sweet, undostinct cadence whipers like the winds typhon, her breathe is still blowing in soft whipers flodding my ears. © 2009 itskristinab*tch X: "Vertigo" by Loaded Gun Steady and stable I used to be Until your heart it spoke to me Unbalance and off my axis Not quite sure about this My grip of reality slipping away I feel I'm falling, will you stay To catch me from this vertigo Keep me safe on your plateau Ground me once again in your arms keep me safe from harm Allow me to fall, but not too hard Whats left of this fragile heart Is yours © 2009 Loaded Gun X: "Tailoring the Dream" by theeviljc i know what i want, i know how to get there. i take what i need, for lifes not fair. you complain, life is hard. whine too much, bout your delt card. nothing is free, earn what you want. its not gonna get handed to you, ya lazy f*^~. i live my way, crop of the cream.... life is good.. when ya tailor the dream © 2009 theeviljc X: "Don't Fear the Reaper" by Amad3us Don't fear, I am the Reaper All things taken by the heedful blade Bringing silence though ages Pale roses--touched with spring; Broken sunflowers crumble in summer Fruits ripend during autumns fall; to frail blossoming at winter's end Forever reaping; Timely I gather.

Ancestors roamed European woods Then men thought we'd be good Placed in the Australian outback To further pillage the world's asscrack Did they think we'd find good tucker? Or even drinking water? F#ywxwx! But we showed them in short time We eat anything and everything we find Put up the fence, we'll tunnel under And rend the ecology asunder And when we're done with kangaroos We're coming to town........ for you © 2009 X X: "Off The Wall" by Jazz-Cool Cat Oh my holy-freaking-crap-kinda-day, For the love of all that is holy, what can I say? Friday's here, and I'm done with another week To spend a whole two days on a little bitty break... How come when you're working all through the year, Every single weekend becomes that much more dear? Whatever-- I guess that's just what people do... Afterall, it makes the money, and the honeys come-to. Love for the heart is all well and good, though... Love for money happens too, y'know. © 2009 Jazz-Cool Cat X: "Gummy Bear Cannibalism" by GaRe_BeAr how does this work? how to they move... they move like puppets with strings attached movement so subtle yet they do i wandered why Always Why why o why are my gummies leaving the bag.. i wake up every day to a few less... never knowing why in a safe i put them yet less there were the next day... then i started watching closer.. closer and closer i watched until i saw it happening.. horrific... such a sacralidge scary even.... sending shivers up my spine.. to my unbenownst meek little mind...i took in the sight... gummie bear cannabilism... watching one gummie eat another...such crude evil beings they are to eat ones self ...to eat another just like you... is it that different? than me eating them?!

"Trust me," she smirked In a voice that would forever haunt And now he is her utter slave 'Til one of them is dead Forever laden with a crown of guilt Atop his weary head © 2009 X X: "Cerebral Circumcision" by Zhya Shaken from the masses Tracing with distress Wonderous and falter So wireless and torn As this mind implodes Would it be my enemy? Or vehement a foe Circumsizing with a hint Of pure insanity Thus cerebral is worn In blind infinity Clawing through an endless night Illusions grace a city light Waking faster Spinning farther Than my mind can take So selfishly partake Along a journey of the slain Withered minds and selfish binds Engulf unknowingly © 2009 Zhya |
