Passion

Passion
It lies in all of us.
Sleeping...
...waiting... And though unwanted...
...unbidden... it will stir...
...open its jaws, and howl.
It speaks to us... guides us... Passion rules us all. And we
obey. What other choice do we have?
It hurts sometimes more than we can bear.
If we could live without passion, maybe we'd know
some kind of peace. But we would be hollow.
Empty rooms, shuttered and dank...
Without passion, we'd be truly dead.

Trippy den of troll's belly's
no joke, as the pudding splats Pat
That rat plots parlaments smack
Souless ah, is Dante's path
Taller pipes of sullen face
packed quick to win the race
see the bee multicolored
portal pill of many feelings
ZIP, ZAP, ZOP
pinical bliss
I is He
You is He
and He is Me
pulled together
They are we
Magic transformed to curse
Sue all beauty
lacked in grip
of deadly Lea's Silver Dip

Apology Poems

I have eaten
the cat
that slept on the floor

The one
you had probably
kept
as a pet

Forgive me,
It was so rich
so tender
and so sweet

Diamante

Dripping, Cooling, Reaking
Dark, silent, light, loud

Snuffalupigus

This is a Snuffalupigus.
it lives in salads, Sudan, Salt, and Shang-Hai.
A Snuffalupigus eats sads, swords, sneaks and sets.
It likes sharing, speaking, sorting, and seeing.
it sells, sleeps, and sees.
I met one and he sold me bats.

Nonet

Football may be a full contact sport
they have no idea what that means
No armor, just you, your mind,
fighting with another force
Kempo is life
and a student
knows he is
never
done

Narrative

In the bamboo woods of the Golden Temple,
Master of the city waits,
He sits on his golden throne with a most disgusted face,
a face hot with anger.

His brother, the town drunk, burned down the only hospital,
He watched as the people in his kingdom burned alvie in a place of help,
They were all burning flesh
Everyone felt happy!

Until John O'connor came to free the people from hell,
and take them to a safer place,
The John O'Conner realized his arch enemy found him!
Obbuba popped out of nowhere with a bow and arrow!

Obubba lept from a burning buildeing to shoot John O'Conner,
and as John O'Conner lay dying from the wound...
Obubba went to get himself some vegetables for his health,
But he didn't know if he could be saved.

Just then a hero appeared out of nowhere,
He grabed obubba,
But just made everything worse,
He fell into a ditch and died silently
