Duet with Banquozghost
Ravens take flight
Heading West
Skies are a-boil
A demonic tempest
Innocents flee
Kneel & pray
Hell has arrived
Come to stay
@Banquozghost
@MercurialNight
No shelter, no last chance
to run
when devils dance!
Cloven feet stamp foul the earth.
Plead for death
and curse my birth!
A waste of breath
to kneel and pray
Hell has come!
There's hell to pay.
O screaming demons
Ride the wind
A tempest thou hast wrought on Earth
Where all is now barren
Cast down
Without worth
@Banquozghost
@MercurialNight
Begins the helter-skelter flight
from crazed apocalyptic fight
What sanctuary
what place is there to hide
when devils ride
Kinda proud of this Noir verse
Close your eyes
Draw the blinds
Let yourself drift
Into such sweet slumber
Where he awaits
Come kiss a dream
You know you want to
#PoemTrail
...
If we are given only tonight
Let us fill it with whispers & sighs
1000 nights alone ahead
So love me into memory
So precious n true
#NMCRP
...
A steadfast bastion
Protecting those he must
With truth n honesty
Justice n courage
He does what's right
With integrity n trust
#SenseWrds
...
Don't stop
Tho I know U must
Give me 5 more minutes
In U I trust
Heaven awaits
Just within reach
So close, my angel
Don't preach
#VerseAngel
...
Life's not a fairytale
Not even close
A struggle from birth
So stay on yr toes
& U will achieve
What U dream of
All in good time
& with love
...
So close we stand
Yet far apart
No bridge between
Blood ties that bind
We cannot break
Our fate decreed
Young hearts do break
#ShapePoetry
...
I kneel before the alter of your grace
Gifted by Passion's benevolence
To offer my heart
My body & soul
Unto my Master's care
#DsubVerse
...
This kiss
A communion
Silent homage
#DimpleVerse #sixwords
...
Tossed in an emotional maelstrom
This kiss was my anchor
#DimpleVerse #tenwords
...
A tender salute
2 B savoured
When Winter comes
& nights grow cold
The kiss U gave
Warms a heart
My memories 2
Now that we R old
#DimpleVerse
...
You played your hand
Tempted fate
Stacked the deck
And lost
Now the Devil's here
To claim his due
Pay your debt
You know the cost
#madVerse
...
Cards laid down
An opening gambit
With no hard limits
Nerves on edge
Time draining fast
Make your final move
Don't count the cost
#madVerse
...
What lies within
This flesh bound cage
Beats 4 U
& always will
If you'd but hear
It's passionate beat
My naked heart
& so true
#DarkLines
...
Capricious Gods
Their moods in mad swing
Toying with Man
Manipulating our strings
Olympian puppet masters
And we their unaware mannequins
@MercurialNight
No plaything, I.
No man to be instructed,
"Get you gone! Come you on!"
The gods I see
are deaf and blind,
know not my mind.
Defiance blazing
You tempt your fate
What they decree
You shall receive
No reward
No prize
For he who fights
He who defies
@Banquozghost
@MercurialNight
Should I be merchant then
trade favours
in a mask of mock devotion?
Or should I face them
in naked honesty?
Aye! I'll defy!
An actor playing a part
Assume a mask of quiet devotion
Defy them if U must
But why call divine wrath down
& be ground 2 dust
@Banquozghost
...
Though we may stumble
Upon this path of life
Lose our way
Or fall
Never cease moving
Always in motion
Heeding Fate's silent call
#fieryverse
...
ONCE UPON A TIME
A beautiful SEDUCTRESS
Held captive
In IMPERFECT chains
Wove tales
So magicallyTANGIBLE
Her name?
SCHEHERAZADE
#DimpleVerse
...
Waves of desire
Crash & foam
Caught in the storm
Drowning in sensation
To lie
Tossed and spent
Upon passion's burning shore
#CarnalVerse
...
379 #Ashverse
Bonds of fellowship
Stretched yet unbroken
Forever shall bind us tight
Whatever happens
Be it good or bad
This day we fight
...
Celestial wonder
Stargazing magic
We stand entranced beneath
The heavens align
Among cascading comets
The fate of Man decreed
#writtenriver
...
Long road winding
Unto the horizon
Anticipating adventure
Excitement building
Foot on the gas
Road trip extravaganza
Let's go!
#VerseAngel
...
A timeless beauty
Without compare
She shimmered
And shone
A silver screen angel
Who fell to earth
Leaving us much too soon
#SenseWrds 199
...
What message this
That upon swift wings
Does from the battle come?
His bloodied visage
Does bear ill news
Delay us not
Let's go!
#fieryverse
...
Covetous eyes
Lasciviously concealed
Do spurn
Clandestine lovers
Locked in sweetest sin
Forbidden desires
Spill temptingly forth
#PoemTrail
...
Gratitude & peace
In a New Year
As the last dance fades
Is this truly time for goodbye
Not with the promise
Of a new adventure
#magickverse
...
#MadVerse
Behind those eyes
Flirting with fate
Emotions unravel
Fraying fast
My tangled state of mind
A labyrinthine maze
Of snarled turmoil
...
#MadVerse
Behind those eyes
Flirting with fate
Emotions unravel
Fraying fast
My tangled state of mind
A labyrinthine maze
Of snarled turmoil
...
Sweet desperation
Torn by desire
Passion's wrath burns
Flays me alive
Cut to the bone
My heart bleeds
Trapped in an agony of love
#DarkLines
...
Shadows flee
Far into the night
Once captive
They run B4 the light
Swarming minions
Let slip their chains
2 rise & feast on pain
#SableSwanV
...
Butterflies dance
Straining to be free
Each singular touch
Brush of your lips
Tightens anticipation
Within the house of my soul
#DsubVerse
...
INCOGNITO he arrived
On IMPULSE he stays
An UNINVITED stranger
Entering UNCHARTED waters
Fighting his URGES
2 RE-EMERGE smiling
#DimpleVerse
...
Snowballs rolling down a hill
Tumble endlessly in free fall
As sleepy squirrels
In slumber deep
Wait for Spring
Fast asleep
#SenseWrds 200
...
Sweet cinnamon kisses
Brightly hued sprinkles
Cast with abandon
To coat icing wrinkles
#fieryverse
...
A clean slate at last
What I've done
Is done
Without excuses
Facing myself
The hardest thing
With hands of uncertainty
Now untied
#Ashverse
...
POTENT symbols unseen
Wild PORTENTs rend the sky
ENVELOPED by ARDOUR
A GOOD GIRL gone BAD
BOY! So bad
Once ADOREd
Now feared
#DimpleVerse
...
Slumberous gaze devouring
Dexterous fingers capture your silken locks
Lips parting in moist invitation
Breathing you in
#HeartWrds 22
...
Ethereal echoes of mourning whispers
Slipping between two worlds
"Find your way"
I hear him plead
"Find your way back to me"
#VerseAngel
...
Wrathful heart
Black as night
Patiently waits
Enjoying your plight
Vengeance takes time
2 B done right
Inch by inch
Feel my bite
#DarkLines
...
If ever your lips forget mine
Remember this
A whispered goodbye
& soft promise
Shall keep us breathing
Echoed sighs til we meet again
#NMCRP
...
Gathering storms
Breathless in the distance
Boil in promise
As day falls to dusk
We watch and pray
The storm will go away
#hangtenstories
...
Each soft spoken word
Tender whisper
Falling from your lips
Is as if angels in passing
Knead my lovelorn heart
#RavensVeil
...
Our gazes met
Were captured
Entranced we stared
A moment shared
B4 the train moved on
A missed opportunity
The what ifs of life
#ShapePoetry
...
Gathering storms
Breathlessly spiral at dusk
Boiling in tempestuous promise
#hangtenstories
...
Ink stained fingers sketching tender promises upon her parchment flesh
#hangtenstories
...
One fleeting dark Winter's night
Our souls touched in flight
#tenwords
#dimpleverse
...
Each time this year
In eyes so bright
Shine wonder and hope
Bathed in warm firelight
Dreaming of Santa
& gifts he will bring
#SenseWrds 201
...
Sipping mulled wine
Warming by the fire
Enfolded in strong arms
That tighten with desire
#fieryverse
...
Vibrant soothsayer
Your crimson warning
Designed upon a scarlet sunrise
Heralds nature's wrath
Beneath these bleeding skies
#ShapePoetry
...
I give myself
Body and soul
Entirely unto your possession
And in return
In carnal bargain made
You shall become my obsession
#DsubVerse
...
Sly words of betrayal
As vipers sting
Wound courageous hearts
With emotions concealed
Pretending we care
Our souls'll never heal
#SableSwanV
...
Sly words of betrayal

With emotions concealed

#SableSwanV
...
Winter's chill biting deep
While men beside their fires sleep
As seasons turn
One to the next
Summer soon
Shall see us blessed
#SenseWrds202
..
Darkness descends
Shrouds from view
All that I say
All that I do
Life is fleeting
Too short a span
Yr time limited
End of Man
#DimpleVerse
Thank you, General, enjoying writing these so much
DISPELLING dark thoughts
My EQUILIBRIUM regained
PERHAPS I'll forgive
Forget
ONE DAY
But not now
Not today
Oh just NEVER MIND
#DimpleVerse
...
Though years may pass
Fading away
You shall forever remain
#hangtenstories
...
Gather round
Let us remember
Dip deep into the well
Let us speak
Of good and bad
Times long past
Those tales we can all tell
#fieryverse
...
Such innocent eyes
Rapt in their imagination
A carpet of blooms
They lift their faces
To follow the sun
Entranced
They sit
#HeartWrds
...
Birthed from a storm
Running wild & free
He was said 2 have a wolf's spirit
That none could tame
Capture
Cage
4ever he'd simply B
#Ashverse
...
Magenta hues
In saturation
Drench my flesh
In carnal bliss
My secret no more
Unlocked 4 all
To see
& wonder
Did YOU cause this?
#CarnalVerse
...
It lit the flame
That sudden spark
In a flood of thought
I found my drive
Poetic words poured forth
A slave to the muse no more
#PoemTrail
...
Cast adrift
Let loose to roam
He stalks the lonely night
Cloaked in shadow
Seeking his prey
His dark beauty seduces
Devours
All
#DarkLines
...
Cinnamon kisses
Logs aflame
Mulled wine warmth
Sighing your name
Blanketing snow
Jack Frost calling
Sleepy eyes
Lashes falling

Cinnamon kisses

Mulled wine warmth
Sighing your name
Blanketing snow
Jack Frost calling
Sleepy eyes

...
Touch of moonlight madness
Taste of rain upon my lips
Skating on the ice
Pirouetting shapes
Cheeks rosy from a kiss of frost
#MadVerse
...
A colourless sky
Bleached of vibrancy
Looms above my head
I look to spring
In anticipation
Of the warmth
And picnics ahead
#fieryverse
...
In hot blood
Accusations flew
Back & forth
Verbal stilettos
Loosed by intimate assassins
To pierce the soul
& leave us bleeding
#VerseAngel
...
A WARPED fantasy
My own mental MIRAGE
As day INVERTED to night
His gaze burned with PERSUASION
My lusty CHIMERA now my reality
#DimpleVerse
...
Icicles hanging
Needles pointing
As four eager little elves
Sitting on a snowflake
Wait for Christmas
& Santa running late
#SenseWrds 203
...
"Yes", I whispered
My fate sealed in that one word
#hangtenstories
...
Stars shining bright
Scattered across the heavens
Such a sequinned canopy
Against the velveteen dark
Each one a promise
Of more
#fieryverse
...
The crushing anguish
Desperation
That rises to taunt
Wound
The hope diminished
Dream let go
All upon a paper
Clear of ink
Of life
#BentHalos
...
Words that once did wound
Now heal
Close up the tear you did rend
Make it as if new
If you can
I see you for what you are
Now
#writtenriver
...
#Ashverse
Tearing out my heart
Letting you go
Was the hardest
Your smiling carnival lips
Seduced my one way trip
To the place I lost in love
...
Haunting strains of a requiem
Thread the silent night
A danse macabre
The risen undead
Brought to skeletal life
#Rhythmic_Words
...
Soft cries bitten off
Silenced by a masterful hand
In burning anticipation
Poised
She waits
Of what he next has planned
#DsubVerse
...
Rain spattered
Blood spattered
All the same to me
Been here so long
I've become a ghost
Unseen
Unknown
My soul burned away
@Banquozghost
...
Pure in thought
She gave herself
#sixwords
#DimpleVerse
...
Unsullied and pure
In sparkling glacial clarity
Refreshing in simplicity
#tenwords
#DimpleVerse
...
Bold bravery
Courageous & true
Steps forward
To raise in valour
This flame of freedom
In chivalric endeavour
With cowardice forbidden
#NMCRP
...
Beneath the glitter
Gloss and smiles
Warm scent of pine
And candles aglow
Where simple honest love
Awaits underneath elegance
#writtenriver
...
In hues of brilliance
Shining bright
Beats a stained glass heart
Raining light
Rings wrapped in velvet
Simple wishes vowed
Forever
