I once was a cactus passing by
with prickly fingers and prickly thighs
and the boys did try to stay away.

They knew for me it was not a game
but life or death like Russian roulette
and it did not suit me, not suit me well or so they said, for a maiden to be as haughty as I.

"take me to heart, don't lead me astray!" I said
but all their wanted was to play.

I disguised my thorns and thistles as luxurious hair,
braided and molded it, to battled I went
though merely content to dance.

They pressed me close, ground me between their thighs
left me there to moan and sigh,
my beautiful thorns and thistles did die.

I mourn this, for days, for months for years.
Where are my thorns, whose beauty once penetrated their flesh?
Vanished, vanquished, turned to daggers with in my eyes.
The innocent excitement I had for lover's words has all but gone.
No longer do I believe what they say.
Where is the desert rose that I once was, who needed little more but sun, whose lovely fruit was eaten away and still would like to play?
Where is the haughty me, my haughty self?
For her I cry!
For she was not bad,cruel or mean,just merely naive to believe
that playing was fair.


I bow to thee...and...to your written words...can I have your autograph ?...lol...nicely done ....drinker
As long as I can write: To Giocamo, misguided politically, but has obvious good taste in literature. Grace


make that...Amazin' Grace !!...lol...remember what they say...just cause my head comes to a point...doesn't mean I'm sharp !...:smile:
That is okay, you can be the sexy one, I'll be the brains.

I think those lines alone could stand by themselves as that particular stanza. They say it all and in my opinion are powerfully beautiful and leaving just enough wonderment for the reader to use their own perceptions in understanding what you are writing about. flowerforyou
yeah i do tend to ramble at times. laugh :wink:

i knows. the polls closed at 8 o' clock sharp (Pacific coast time), and a minute after, Obama was announced President...now how in the world did that happen? they didn't even count our votes!
I used to get mad at that when I lived in L.A.

Wow, nice read Enderra, and nice to see you here..

The road to truth has many turns,
missing some can cause burns.
To some its an ever-lasting maze,
Many roads just end,
As they set with open mouth in a daze.
May your own road stay its course for your heart.

Thanks, I try to keep it real!!!, even if I am often quite dumbfounded by people.

In a nutshell.

Although Obama won, Mc Cain won in our county.


Just in case us Obama supporter were getting to excited.

Have you ever had the distinct feeling of being lied to, as you watch the persons mouth move you are thinking, wow, they think I am an idiot. This not the poem.




of excuses
piles at the door
a trash can to dump'em in
everything is orange orange
no longer hot
turning violent
palm trees
a constant reminder
of paradise lost
on every route
out/in
210-5-101
91-405-110
with all the comings and goings
we've misplaced
a free
way home

she screams
chapter and verse
to the view
rearview mirror
reflecting
no one
you can fill up
but you're not
full up
yet spiritual jargon
circles heads devoid
of sense
an if
si on parle en francais
ce n'est pas plus clair
non plus

grey
greens
melt blue
open mouths with swollen tongues
mist over
in certitude
they aren't the ones
misshapen
by excuse
now high
you can't climb'em
they're slick
polished
refined as crude
underpinnings in every cuff
the knowing turns you ice
dreaming at all
proves hazardous
belief now the villain

What sense the sense seem
obsolete
what use hands or feet
fallen on excuses
fleeing forwardness
swallowing lies
like burnt dry toast
asking
what's worst
the dry
the bitter
personne
no ones
prepared
to pay the price
ad.mit'tance
instead excuses
a touch of blame

so
if new arms
must be created
let them race round excuses
in landfills overflown numb
lest
love leaves
nose pinched
gasping
stench muck rancor
ears held
singing
la la- la la la la-la
eyes bleeding torrents
never to reach
parched hearts
heavy from
excuse
excuses

if you're looking for silence
baby look somewhere else
i bavard babble
and sometimes make sense

i can talk to trees
and i talk to rocks
not because i like hearing myself talkin
but rather i don't see it as an expense

however wall talkin is not my forte
i just end up climbing them
despite the fact
they are immense

i talk to communicate
cause in the world where i live
the talkin is free open lavish
and dense
