Through a Filter of Scum
Don't eat the shellfish the sea filters through Every thing is a dichotomy they say in the end This obliqueness sows it's wild oats in the forest where only small shreds of light make their way to the ground A starlight is worth a multitude of sound, a one liner, a lyric, a pun, a religion, you and me and all we have on this Earth was...

(1.) Dare I Compose, This Heartfelt Poem For Thee Dare I reveal, dare to my soul expose No longer hide behind life's hidden pose Return to Southern roots, a simple man Forget this dark world's constant wicked plans Remember her, life's most beautiful rose She the sweet goddess, that this poor man chose. Dare I compose, this heartfelt poem for thee Pray to Heaven...

Premium Member The Filter of My Mind
like steaming water seeps through the openings in the bottom of a colander the wisdom of ages past is filtered by my conscious mind leaving all but a few bits and pieces caught in the process I am ashamed to only share the remnants of the astounding truth that came to me giving only the morsels that manage to...

Filter Out the World
I need to filter out the world, Just for a little while, To drown out the white noise, The static and the light. I music has turned discordant And I cannot see the sky, Hear the rustling on the breeze, Nor the soaring birds that cry. The longing for some silence Is building each passing hour The yearning for some...

Who I Might Have Been David J Walker Ever since You came home Things haven’t been The same Things that I remembered Have been rearranged or Discarded/hidden in the mounds of dead leaves Beneath the dying trees of my youth A small fire lit under the rotting truth Of that which can be set free by flames Then who’s to say what...

The Human Filter - Freewill
The Human Filter (Freewill) There is only, but one, who can see black and white. For the rest of us, it is merely perception. We can hope for glory, but for all is not bright. As many have followed a path of deception Choosing right over wrong, there is only one choice But the answer is not, always easy or clear When...

My shadows are tender and easy to miss, Like a smile seems innocuous, stealthy as kiss, Still these shadows add weight, create drag in our life, Though they rarely, if ever, cut deep like a knife! Too, sunlight wracks havoc though most never feel All its subtle intrusions till later we peel; It brings low orbit satellite’s life to an end, Just...

By Laura Dee October 17, 2014 You wanna see my pretty scars? I'll show you where the deepest are The ugliness for the pretty ones to see Can you still rationalize your judgments of me? I don't think it's brass, or even cavalier I'm fed up with lies; it's life that I fear This storm will never clear so make yourself at...

Clouds Filter Light
The dirt does not give into words. Blind-less in tongue and heart, I have dropped myself in the earth. Dark eyes wrapped in cloth, Tilted clouds narrow my sight. Spiral down fellow pride follows, Relieving fires flame of it's light. Tonight silent is the color. And the wind is what I wear. Tomorrow is what we desire, Dropping the past skin and years. Aggravation the...

And so affection seeks to wane without faith's holding on in vain. I hold my thought in context's aim to some adjustment, love's contain. As filtering truth, I filter feign so glories honor fits thy name. I filter solace, peace maintain no purpose hollow, thee might claim. As all in all, I filter rain that burdens thee in thy domain. I filter sunshine to thy...
