A crimson blossom
Beside my desk, silent muse
Petals gently fall
As pen scratches parchment sheet
Capturing love, pain, and all

To give a rib an odd tickle
I make it my life’s sole #work
Skew those framed perspectives
Tilt grandiose pictures in frames
Prick those inflated troubles
Deflate their pompous obesity
Pin a smile on Eeyore’s glum
Even if I can never fix his tail

So go
Throw away the remnants
Of this once beating heart
It works no more
The savage claw that severs
Remains stained forever
Let the blood that seeps
Creep through your immortal soul
The bits are to many
To piece together
They will never now
Make a whole
I bury love

A book of secrets
Lying dormant
A powerful spell
Casting us away
Rushing us towards
An unknown fate
Filled with allure
And magical dreams
A storyteller's touch
Drawing us in
Conjuring up a world
Of endless thrill
Unveiling an #adventure
That will never end

@MQuigley1963 Today awaits
Emerge and behold
The sun at your back
Your story will unfold
But if behind
You decide to stay
Waiting for an invite
You’ll miss the day
Don’t miss your day!

#Limericks are my new #adventure
Some say it's early dementia
Please don't rant and rave
take it up with Gabe
before he sails into absentia

My heart is heavy
My spirit low
I’m struggling to find my way
I have faith and I will grow
And I’ll be okay
Some day

Bop fusion trumpet muted
Scratched out in harmony
#empowered of human tones
baby cries cut through any din
Our eyes circle cicada
tunes,blown throughly to bleed
Odins bookmarked poetry
Norse angels heavenly dance
in gyrate corrupt motions

Emily was a #fan of buzz words like #empowered
Emptying a safe was an act of empowerment, keeping the dough, practicality.
So she didn't appreciate it when Powerboy stepped in to save the day.
Blasting him to hell was required

Under taciturn sky
facing broken-easled horizon
brink of evening rain
My mind is a tangle
of incomplete tangent thoughts
Don't mistake my distant gaze
for misplaced disconnection
I am bereft
A cherished flower
needing to release her petals
my color fading into potpouri

#Empowered, our pace quickened, and the world blurred. My pack. Muscles twitched. Animalic warmth surrounded us. Our family. We spilled into the clearing, moon bright as sun. We, the beasts, growled like the wind sighs into the night.
