dave cox JUST A LITTLE OFFERING

HURTLING THROUGH A BLACK UNIVERSE OF SADNESS. THE LIGHT OF LOVE FADING LIKE A DYING STAR. MY SOUL SCREAMS IN THE BLACKNESS, BUT NO ONE HEARS. THE BLACK HOLE OF SORROW DRAWS ME CLOSER TO ITS GAPING MAW. IN THE DEPTHS OF MY SOUL I KNOW THAT IF I SUCCUMB MY SOUL WILL NEVER KNOW LOVE AGAIN. AND I WILL DWELL IN THIS DA… Continue

Robby Baby (Poet of Amour) The day love died, the night it rose again

The day love died, was the night it was reborn, as on that mysterious day, it fell to the swarm of an unknown force, perchance a malice of an army of mysterious universes intent, to send love into a forever descent, its scent of sweet flowers never to scent the senses of mortals e'ermore. Twixt between the hours of dusk, the time of twilight, that the world felt its throes, the death of love, as naught but thorns were felt, 'pon the hearts of mortals and immortals same. The… Continue

Robby Baby (Poet of Amour) The love

My spirit watches her, as she wanders to the stream, and she stops and wonders, as she cries with a hope, for she swears she can see the hope of love, flowing like her tears in her hidden dream. My heart beats, as my spirit ambles by to hear her heart beating, its beats strirring with the potentiality of loves existence, a persistent beat of hope that fades but never quite goes away... ...and I feel both my spirit and heart stir with an urge, to tell her that love is hers as… Continue

Robby Baby (Poet of Amour) The nature of love

The nature of love is the ultimate alchemization, it brings itself to the human mind like quantam states in constant flux. The nature of love is like particles and waves, in which our percpetion can change its very nature; we often do not know it, but our mind so often assembles the power of nature of loves state, as when understanding and compassion make love so malleable, so that if we find that our heart was not meant for another, it lets that other heart go, and when our heart grows hard, i… Continue

Robby Baby (Poet of Amour) Love Poet

I am a poet who loves thee, and yet my pen cannot find the words to desribe thine essence; I am a poet who loves love, and yet my pen grows impotent when thinking upon its nature, it cannot capture the fire of love in mere verses; the most beautiful cursives of my poetic pen, they would feel like curses when set against loves might, and I dare not set my pen to write this, as I feel love's power is outside the scope of my pens sight. I am a poet who loves the power of love, and yet my pen canno… Continue

Khem In Afghan Fields

Lest we remember... In Afghan fields the poppies blow Between the landmines, row on row, To our disgrace; and while we lie, Unsung, a child is getting high, The harvest of these fields of woe. We are the dead. Short days ago We wept, felt pain, engaged some foe, Fought, and were fought, we knew not why, In Afghan fields. Put down your quarrel with the foe; On all Morphia may bestow Her boon, a painless last good-bye. Though still ye be afraid to die, Ye shall but sleep, since poppies g… Continue

Cendrine Marrouat How to get more exposure for your creations

Independent artists find it hard to get exposure for their art, especially poets and spoken word artists. What are the possible solutions?

The venues to get one's creations noticed are many and few at the same time. It takes months, and mostly years, of hard work and patience to finally hit the general public. I have connected with some of the most incredible artists and supporters in North America and have followed their tips and advice very carefully. And as a result, I received more… Continue

Sara Louise End of Illusion (For Barry)

END OF ILLUSION (For Barry) by Sara L. Russell (Pinky Andrexa) How lovely was illusion when it used to wear his face; like some magical collusion between mystery and grace. Spun from lightning, stars and thunder, luminescent as moonlight, with dark eyes wide with wonder and hair as black as night. How lovely was desire when it used to sigh his name; forged out of passion's fire, too mischievous for shame. He's a hero for our dreams to entice us out to play; how untouchable he seems ti… Continue

Joseph J. Breunig 3rd Poem: Outside the Windy City

Outside the Windy City lives the Lady Finnegan - Carol dearly loves the Lord Jehovah and is a part of His earthly plan. Her heart has been pierced by God's Holy Spirit; for she placed her life before Him and has chosen to submit. Her adoration for the King has burst forth with heart's joy, from reading her great nephew's literature within the borders of Illinois. Now she's become God's messenger via her gifts of Joe's Christian poetry - For the fragrance of God's Love envelopes her with scrip… Continue

Robby Baby (Poet of Amour) Do I?

Do I inspire you as you do me? Do I inspire your body to overtake itself, to go past the hestitancy of touching lips, to go past the hesitancy of you touching your hands with mine, so that your body may finally feel the ectasy of mine? Do I elevate the feelings in your body, as your body does for me? Does this elevation make you fever, like the fever that runs through this dreamer, this dreamer that dreams of none but you? Do I make you want me, the way that I want you? Do your fingers tremble… Continue
