It Is I, Poetry by Daniel Franco

Genre: Rhyme, Relationship, Love, Romance

I’m not falling for that again
This time I’ll abstain
I don’t feel anymore pain
Only the memories remain

I’m searching for a word to say
I want to be discovered
I’ll keep doing it day by day
Even if it’s still covered

As I become intoxicated
This night is dreaded
By the sound I’m fascinated
And to the bottom I’m headed

No more counting dots
That time is over
Now it’s a new plot
I’m no longer a loner

The fire burns with rage
Consuming all with age
The smoke enters the cage
As some ink fills the page

Behind bars I await
Expecting someone late
Hurry up, you can’t waste
The time meant to create

All is right
The sky is bright
I won’t write
For it is night

It is I, Lucyo of the abstract mind.

The Journey Home, Poetry by Tyson Cantrell

Genre: Rhyme, Relationship

Have thy lips forgotten their journey home?
Their expedition makes the arbor blush;
A tread uncertain, for the lone to roam,
And one too heady for the learn’d to rush.

They do stray from reason, with passion straight;
Though ne’er removed from the artisan’s fear;
But mark their path with Aphrodite’s gait;
A perilous voyage for lovers’ near.

Must they insist traversing the unknown?
Might they pause, and harbor heaven divine?

I shall stop thy pilgrimage with mine own;
Two weary travelers that long for rest,
Open thy crimson gates, and welcome them;
No sweeter neighbor has e’re been thy guest.

The Face of God, Poetry by Deborah Johnson

Everywhere I look I’m searching for His face

His glory revealed in each and every place.

I see Him in the sunset, the colors of heaven floating by

Even in the darkness and stars shining from on high.

His design is all around me from the inside of a flower

To lightning striking across the sky revealing His almighty power.

Unbelievable patterns and pigments in the tiniest of bugs and frogs,

Infinite varieties in flowers, trees, cats, and dogs.

Embellished birds spread their majestic wings and fly

Over the rainbow and into the sky.

Multitudes of beauty if we but could see

Hidden miracles invisible to you and to me.

In our bodies, cells, and being

Scientists have wound up seeing.

Cells shaped like a cross holding all others in place

Surely in my searching, I have seen God’s beautiful face.

But my heart will go on searching until that glorious day

When I reach the shores of heaven and then I’ll be able to say,

After all the searching on every path I’ve trod

Today I’ve found Him in my heart and see the face of God.

” For the invisible things of him, from the creation of the world are clearly seen, being understood by the things that are made, even his eternal power and Godhead; so that they are without excuse.” AKJV Romans 1:20

Intimations of the Beyond, Poetry by Suzanne Miller

Genre: Life

Deconstructing my own life
I hold onto keepsakes from the past
as I search for meaning
in the dross and filth of outmoded ways of being.

Like wraiths bedizened
in the wanton guises of desire
they attempt to seduce me back
into the hive
of busy, mindless activity.

Shaking myself free
I enter a new zone

a place of alexithymia
beyond the language
of the known.

Tears of Remorse, Poetry by Debbie Lyn Jones

Genre: Dark

Intro:
“A 9-year-old Alabama girl is dead after her grandmother and stepmother … Police say the girl was ordered to run for 3 hours as punishment for lying to her.”

Tears of Remorse

Forgive me

Forgive me
I only wanted your heart

Forgive my deception
Forgive my lies

I am but a child
I only want your love

See my tears of remorse
have pity upon my small soul

On and forwards I go
every day a blur

I want to come from the shadows into the light
I want your hand to take me there

Please…love me
please care for me

I want to go round and round
in the bright days of tomorrow

the grass at our feet
the wind in our hair

I want to be as one
I want to go with you

please love me
please see
my tears of remorse

Contrast, Poetry by Tim Wilkinson

Genre: Rhyme, Life

Light’s defined by shades of gray
Night itself by day

Dusk by citrus skies arrayed
Dawn by gloom and fray

So what is love if not a heart
Awaiting, come what may

The thrust and pang, the anguished
Strain, of one who’s gone away

(W)Ri{gh}t(e), Poetry by Tim Rizzuti

Genre: love, choices, humanity, integrity, emotional, deep

Moments of clarity
Lead to temporary insanity
Where is my plan to be
How do I get to the next degree
Of life
Is it as hard for everybody else
Or do I have it easy
Should I be concerned
With my mind
And the state it chooses to be
Do I need medical help
Do I need holistic healing
Do I need my wife to stand by
Pray to god for a feeling
Or a sign
That everything will be alright
That everything will be alright
Writing helps the emotion
Seep throughout my brain
Down my spine
To my chest
Arm
Hand
Fingers
Pen
Ink
Page
Now the stage is set
All I need to do is

JFK, Poetry by Nets L.

Genre: Political
Type:. Haiku

Titled: JFK

Hollowed footsteps
rhythmic death
stamps you dead
While processional silence
tunnels through the brain
carriage wheels
click stones loudly
through the shadow
of a man

HER CATASTROPHE, Poetry by Rachel O

Genre: RACE, LOVE, INTERRACIAL ROMANCE

Her catastrophe will lead you to ecstasy

Her Pain will teach you empathy

Her sorrows drain your sympathy

While her strength will challenge you structurally…..

Her caress will linger with your distress…..

have you begging for her to undress,

All, as her eloquence clenches to your very chest

Whilst you strive for that bounty we call his breast…….

She gazes at us all and requests

a simple retrieve,

from the bundles and loads and cosomos she holds

However, rarely seeking the latrine

Life’s Salient Saline…

Ever Silent as a stone, We a mixed bag of souls, as she boldy holds the bones of your erroded domes…..

And her breath will cast your energy……..

But will you recall at her eulogy?

Logged in you minds etymology?

Her androgynous antiquity?

Her grace spun like tapestry?

I quarry, will you even remember me?
