Cowardly sacrifice or sneaky regret?! "Halfway between these two concepts, the insidious tyranny came back into vogue." In the flickering darkness of a star-moment, they grope for each other, until the totally determined loneliness cannot be... – by Norbert Tasev | added by oasev

Day #6: Salmon Idaho to Vernal Utah
I was the first motorcyclist to leave the next morning from an overly full parking lot. It was 6:45 a.m., and you couldn’t fit even one more bike anywhere on the normally empty lot. Some late arrivals were now... – by kurt philip | added by KurtPhilipBehm

The shepherd was a subdued wolf.
The hermit had a cloak, a stick and a bag, and a book.
The goat was a sheep who awoke from a bear's slumber.
The wheel takes the apes across,
down, around, back and forth, up and under.
The winter...

In summer, all is bright and fair,
I miss sunlight when it's night, with no light there.
Jehovah's creation, beyond compare.
The sun's warm rays upon my face,
In sunshine, all is bright and fair.
Brings joy and life to every place.

A plastic world we been livin' in!
Ridin' a line between carcinogen,
and sweet as saigon cinnamon.
Serotonin is what we're swimmin' in-
Easyrider,
nik, nik, nik, fire.
In a stable where Zoroastrians stand and admire!

When the children cry do we even bother to ask why?
To the mother all alone holding onto her strength to try
Do we truly take the time
To acknowledge and brighten their day with a simple smile?
To the man all alone
Do we pray he finds his... – by Amanda K lessig (Sunshine) | added by amandak

from the rooftop of your house
floating down the flooding river
twisters' green skies run for cover
sirens daily warning duck
undergrounds bunker scramble
fire scars breech unknown heat limits

Prose and its narrative
the lazy alternative
Words most abundant
meaning defined
Declarative function
it reads codependent
As poets but smile

They tried to tie me down and tame me
God cut the ropes
I was made to be this way
I am who I am
I was born a mess
Mad at the world from the beginning
No one to trust
No one to guide me to the positive
I was stuck in the negative

“when I’m with you I feel like I could die and that would be alright..”
On a good day, there’s color to your cheeks along with a smile

Like everything’s okay and our life hasn’t been fading away,
Slowly

Now the daggered hearts statue remains
Dry tears wilting on empty years
Trapped in memories crashing waves
Always ending the same
Slow motion draining
Heartbeats crooked step
Waining in the languid hours
Stolen in gravities pull
Down wistful... – by Hunter Aydelott | added by Huntero

Dancing eyes softly wait
Shining beauty radiating
Balancing in the moonbeams
Many a sailor's eyes have tried
To untie Stella's steadfast heart
Bound to oceans rocky shores
His eyes stirred her deepest feelings
Longing for his long tender... – by Hunter Aydelott | added by Huntero
