Old man, face wrinkled with age,
moves slowly down bus,
walking stick in shaky hand.
Bus jolts, old man mutters.
Kindly hand grabs arm.
Fat lady, jolly face.
Aunt Betty when he was young.
Mirror reflections.
Old man sits down wearily
Woman in front,
loaded with shopping,
and two young children.
One with runny nose,
other chocolate covered face.
Wife, children long ago.
Mirror reflections.
Old man gets off bus,
walks down road.
Lowered head, eyes sad.
Places newly cut flowers
by gravestones, three.
Family killed in blitz.
tears run down face.
Mirror cracked.

hello, jobs, kiss, loss, love hurts, math, may,
Any slide of litany,
and random errant currency,
the sleeping,
the provision and providence,
and then ...
So then there's endangerment,
and the policemen-
then there's pinnacle's of the ages of indifference...
They said in a small circular figure that this is not our place,
when it really is the only thing we love,
as a whole,
our favorites draw us in close,
yet we don't provide them with much,
just...promise.

Just A Couplet od Lovers by JTCurtis Oct 8, 2014
As I hop upon my Metaphor
I hope I still have Rhyme
I need to make the last Quatrain
Which leaves at ten 'til nine
My Haiku's waiting for me
I Lyric her so much
That I, bought a mixed bouquet for her
Of Triolets and such
A gift wrapped Box of Canzone
I know she'll like to eat
Those Blitz', Choka, Clerihew's
Are Villanelle sweet
One day I hope to buy her
A huge Diamante ring
And List forever, in a world
That's Free Verse-ever-ing

books,
I learned english reading
and so awed I say ah oui
as no one told me the used of such
don't get me wrong I speak perfect
the three words of I me and who are you
must share the world
mostly I listen the deluge of you know
to distill the check of bamboozle
if only you dropped the ascent
a mountain you tell me the meme of may be
a grand mother to have fun with a child
in the projects what is that an H L M
do not speak but love the matzo ball
and a perfect salsa want a tango
as the rumba clean the floor

I'm like what's next?
I'm in the P.D.X,
so flexed-
come rain or come next,
if the weather has test,
"I say" take the heather to caress the pests-
rush in on tether's and bust up their measures,
force on them pleasures because I take care the never never and replace them with edgers...
So take out your name,
and stake out the possessed,
because what allowed us always came to be best.

The one and only girl of my dreams,
In my slumber, together forever is what it seems,
And then I awake, and now reality hits.
I feel like a quarterback that can’t escape the blitz.

Soup is only for the poor
But seriously I want more
If only I could drink the broth
I would kill an animal, maybe a moth
I need a spoon to eat this junk
I'm in a boat, a shark hit it, now i'm sunk
I'm living on the side of the road
But I've got soup, it's not too cold
Even though it's winter
I wish I could use a dang fork
Possibly even kill someone in new york
Soup should only be given to the poor
Maybe, soon, I might score
Hopefully
Then again, I live on the street
I'm always getting beat up, always beat
That's why I need soup
Because it's for the poor.

I'm offended,
unbendable,
subtle yet encouraged-
there's a place to be,
to go see-
I can and will breathe.
I am here for the crave,
and instantly a brave!
Let's let them speak because we have been drained,
the energy is proof that we stayed.

SHE HATES ME
As the sun greets the arrival of night,
Deep within, her heart holds a brewing disdain,
She devours me with the love she feels,
She consumes to understand that she loves me.
Like iron that radiates warmth to unfurl folded garments,
Her hatred towards me corrupts the pure vessel of love she holds,
She devours me with the love she feels,
She consumes to understand that she loves me.
As the morning pushes the night away, revealing the fragrant glow,
The lady battles her heart for the hate she harbors towards me,
She devours me with the love she feels,
She consumes to understand that she loves me.

TUBEROSE TUBEROSE
O Tuberose, Tuberose!
Wherefore art thou Tuberose?
Why not be named, Mother of Roses,
for within her creation is the iridescence of pearl,
which justifies her right to be considered, a pearl's mother,
so Mother of Roses, why can't it be?
For thou art a flower of all flowers to me,
and my favorite of all perfumes,
oh thou opulent essence of white gold!
Or if thou wilt not, be sworn by my love,
and be my wedded flower, the flower of my story,
the flower of my glory,
And I'll no longer love ALL fragrant white florae, only thee.

Pandora of loving
When you love,
You hardly heed to the beckoning pain,
When you love,
You are clouded with the mist of the posed fantasy,
When you love,
You often bairn yourself to give it all,
But is it a guarantee to be paid the same?
Is it a sacrament of the ordain pouted love you expect?
No, I don't think so,
When you are in love,
Wake up to avoid a broken heart,
Is a Pandora of falling in love

grief, happiness, joy, life, love, pain, wisdom,
If sorrow and grief were replaced by glitz
and gladness would invite us to a waltz,
there would be lasting joy; nobody will
think of tears, of fear, of pain only of thrill;
honor peace and there won't be any blitz!
Such harmony was present in a garden
when our ancestors were without sin,
they never feared the lion and the tiger:
yesterday's life was all roses and sun!
The final threat is death, the plague that kills;
it comes at any age, at unexpected moments,
many try to defy it, but can they really trick it?
Its longevity depends mainly on self-taught
wisdom learned by living untroubled days:
yesterday's life was all roses and sun!

I bade farewell to love with the experience with my ex
Who almost killed me with the pestering of sex
Left my past behind
As the search for love filled my mind
Then approach me an angel from above
Having the traits of a dove
Thought i had found the perfect match
As thoughts erupted in my mind to have found the biggest catch
On my breast i felt his torch
Sarcastically i said its not too much
At a stage it seemed like a rape
That moment he was more disgusting than a ape
I realised he loved to play rough
Then showed him the stuff i was made of
Pretended to give a ********
Only to bit him like an angry cub

rain,
Stormy is the sky
Stormy is why
Why the sky is gray
Why the rain decided to come
Come to relieve all the anger in her heart
Compelled to cry
Stormy tell my why
Why do you cry
Sadness you always see
but.. just remember you bring the rain
that comes in the spring
and flowers you always bring
Insane your intentions may be
but I still love thy
Beauty you always bring
I breathe and your scent always be
There when you come
Freshness
Cleanness
Beauty you always are
For me, we who can really see
you for what your really are

Keep going
Keep pushing
Pushing out the hate
Pushing out the words
Words that spit like venom
Words that roll of the tongue with ease
Ease of not thinking
Ease of hurt
Hurt is the easiest to inflict
Hurt normally goes unnoticed
Unnoticed when he doesn’t love
Unnoticed he shows me my worth
Worth nothing to him
Worth hurting his child
Child of God I am
Child of his I am not
AM
NOT!
