Premium Member A High Fivefold Dive
Count your fingers and toes! It's five that drives betides! For our minds can't juggle More than five at once. Can't grip, grasp sense - six. How we sense and perceive, Also comes in five flavors. Touch, sight, smell, taste, hearing, Which constrains, contorts our thoughts, Into believing we know what's Right, true, all so insightful! But, why or why five? Has ego, fear, doubt, desire Succumbed to...

Premium Member Wings to Fins: A Flight from Cruelty, A Dive into Peace
When I was a terrorized, tortured, petrified child, I would look up- into the vast, clear blue, empty space, and wish I were a bird. To spread my wings, rise beyond reach, dip through clouds like whispers, ride the blustery winds, and after the rain- chase the ribbons of color that arc across the sky, just out of curiosity. By night, I would perch on treetops unknown, watching...

Premium Member I dive into the cauldron
and in my dream I plunge deep into a magic cauldron it is not a pot, vat, or tank not a vessel of any kind but a turquois ocean where blue waves crash over me I plummet and vanish down, down to swim with pretty fish swallowing a sweet elixir a powerful liquid and potion magically warming my body I feel enchantment and fascination rising to the...

Premium Member I dive into thoughts, wishing my verses would soar ever higher
I dive into thoughts, wishing my verses would soar ever higher, Like a bird with boundless wings, lost in distant and divine horizons, But they only float, like water birds with netted feet, Tilting their wings in vain, without reaching the dreamed destinations, Helplessly watching skylarks and eagles fly towards the edges of the sky. How I wish my poems...

Premium Member Such The Serendipitous Dive Bar
Such the serendipitous dive bar, a man walked in who was almost missed; “You are destined” he said “for ‘Rockstar on tour.’ Go and dust off that setlist.” “Throw out all those decrepit covers. I’ve got your back let’s send you soaring! You may have some with those makeovers sharing your soul they’ll ALL come running! Twenty five thousand people will stand waiting...

Premium Member Coral Cosmos
Drifting, drifting we float, in azure abysses aglow Drifting, drifting we glide, amidst aquatic artistry's flow Drifting, drifting we go, where coral constellations grow Swimming, swimming we surge, through sapphire seas serene Swimming, swimming we swirl, where silent symphonies convene Swimming, swimming we soar, as shimmering schools careen Deeper, deeper we dive, discovering diverse domains Deeper, deeper we delve, dreaming in diaphanous...

Premium Member which mess do I dive into first
which mess do I dive into first? When I left my schools this year I took it all. It was easier to bring home to sort. This was a daunting, horrible energy-stealing task. I put it off for over a month. Leaving the boxes out on my porch. Messing it up, an embarrassment to others. To me, something I could not yet...

I had none!’ I did everything my heart craved for Life was beautiful and cool But then, I...

Dive Bar
A steady hand lifts the glass mug of the next regret. He twirled me on the dance floor, left stained by blue collar shoeprints and leaky pints. In the corner, the referee refuses to let there be a fair fight, favoring the heavyweight champion of the pool table and fatty knuckles sever the ego of a cheeky,...

Premium Member Angry Dolphins
Precariously poised on the precipitous precipice, I pondered whether a nose-dive plummet into the whirlpool lagoon below was prudent, well-advised and provident. But the angry impassive persona, of the ever so cross porpoises, seen purposefully prancing there gawking up at me, persuaded me to prudently, postpone the plunge....

Premium Member Dive Bar Bomb Was Yesterday's Poem
I wrote a poem last night named Dive Bar Bomb As the confidence of eyeliner, a red dress and Guinness went to my head I didn't dance and twirl but I felt exciting It's not about the male gaze And I didn't talk to anyone but the company I was with But somewhere in my psyche attractiveness is connected to...
