Thoughts that sometime...rhyme

Moon hangs Pinched between cloud and tree tops Silvery light pale on the ground Ghostly as the wan shadows That don't want to be found. Full moon grins Binoculars belie a rough life Of everlasting evenings spent partying In the night sky. The world seems magical Romantic Take off your clothes and do... Sign in to see full entry.

The eastern sky, indistinguishable from the horizon black as the heart of night, creaks as a sliver of silver punctuates the space between earth and heavens, signaling the approach of dawn. One by one the stars flicker and go out, spent candles who's time is o’er while the sky strains to go from... Sign in to see full entry.

The cattle Are in Seattle Listen to their prattle. Moo moo moo Who who who? We bbq spotted owls, do you?

I lie down in my bed And draw the covers over my head Covering my face Denying I am on a planet spinning through space. Darker than the world under my covers The night sky between the stars, Jupiter and Mars Is suitable for lovers. Our world wheels and turns Our sun, silently burns Black holes...

I would love to win the lottery And drink till I got tottery. Fast cars and sleek boats I’d hire a band to follow me around And fill the air with sweet notes. Willing women to slake my sexual needs All the while smoking exotic weeds. But more than that I want things no amount of money buys Perfect... Sign in to see full entry.
