Trudging, walking, wading, time eternal.
In this sludge filled world.
Malaria ridden needles, piercing skin.
Choice.
Stay and live in netted castle,
Passing time with folded roses,
Aluminum glory in a forsaken hell.
Choice.
Walk the rope with out a net,
Risk the life, the gift from God,
And win the war.
(Words: malaria, aluminum, roses, risk, choice; given by:Kate Hartman)
Intergalactic travel.
Farther still than the word is long.
Antidisestablishmentarianism
Colder than the northern pole,
The wind blown flats of Canada.
But for love of adventure
Unremarkedly remaining silent, rote acceptance.
When chosen to fly this tomb.
For science.
For mankind.
For love.
(Words: intergalactic, unremarkedly, Canada, antidisestablishmentarianism, rote; given by:Mike Hofner)
farewell bard
shakespeare true
dead and gone
life again
green spring grass
a sprite flies forth
to whisper in my ear
your words lost
i a respirator
of your rhymes of old
(Words: Shakespeare, grass, respirator, farewell, sprite; given by:Andy, Kate, and Chris)
Eggs scattered, hidden in the grass.
Easter,
More than that.
Life comes back.
Faster than lightening,
Redemption.
Top notch Winnabego,
Then some.
Free for the taking.
(Words: winnabego, ham, eggs, lightning, grass; given by:????)
The Pentagon.
Who'd a thunk it?
Me. A big time spy.
Those Commies will pay!
Code words.
Call me Octopus.
Me. Tag the lobster.
Can't tell you what it means.
This note.
Probably my goodbye.
Me. If caught, I'll swing.
Shovel honor on my grave.
My country.
Give my life for it.
Me. Die for freedom.
That you can live.
(Words: lobster, pentagon, shovel, swing, octopus; given by:Mary Gardner)
A castle built on foreign shore
Proclamation by ancient Lords,
"We will stand!"
Time
Tearing, wearing life away.
Its arms reach our and fell the walls.
Falling into ill repair.
Nothing left now but despair.
Ruination of the Kings of old,
Their former glee buried deep with in the Earth.
Their tombs filled with ancient airs.
Others filled with ancient heirs.
Broken dreams brought down by death.
Faces gone from all but dreams,
And crustacean's back
On Japanese shore.
(Words: crustacean, ruination, despair, rubble, glee; given by:Mary Gardner)
Unfounded anger deep inside.
Heart turned green by wanting eyes.
Lies of caring, sharing lies,
A form of hate we try to hide.
Hate's contagious, don't let them see.
Building rage on steam'ed mirror.
Masking Truth with glaring eyes,
To feed your envy, lustful eyes.
(Words: unfounded, steamed, peacefully, contagious, caring; given by:Mike Hofner)
Reflection.
An iris in an iris.
Beauty on beauty.
Flower on flower.
The self demolished.
Snapped like a rubber band,
Stretched full width
Trying to resist.
Pulling me in.
Once started, unstoppable.
Newton's inertia
Or maybe love.
Iris on iris.
A view to the soul.
Iridescent heart
To cherish forever.
(Words: rubber band, iris, inertia, demolished, iridescent; given by:????)
Once before perhaps
I had some care for his office.
Perhaps a bond, platonic at most.
But after this, never again
The frivolous case,
The unending court,
Like teaching math from pisces death,
The feeding of the 5,000.
The people's will
What they say they want,
D r a w i n g i t o u t l i k e a n u n e n d i n g d e a t h.
Nailing it to a tree on cavalry.
Making it a cause
At any cost
To be president.
Someone should give it up.
Save their breath for the next four years.
Save the people from their lawyer's wrath.
Wave the white flag.
Offer a truce.
And a tulip for the heck of it.
(Words: platonic, Pisces, president, Cavalry, tulip; given by:????)
My mind.
Specious from afar.
Full of power, built on might.
Cultivating answers for all to hear.
But inside, thunderous confusion.
Palimpset waves crashing
On a stormy sea of thought,
Washing words of worth away.
Ever on, new waves form
And leave the old to die
Fading "in a sea of wet."
(Words: specious, white, waves, deseccated, cultivate, palimpsest; given by:????)
(Palimpsest - document that has been written on, faded, then written on again)
