Poems
Nov 2016
Force of Nature
I walk through life's
Final frontier
I tread on death's
Devoid of fear
A Black Plague rat
A great white shark
I
am
the depths
And caverns dark
A dormant rage
Volcano lair
Don't wake my sleeping
Grizzly bear
Or he will smash
This buzzing hive
And eat the honey
They contrive
Each saddled mustang
Spirit freed
Mere show ponies
To my stampede
Which fills this earth's
Tectonic plates
With rumblings from
My stomach quakes
Raised by wolfpacts
Of my youth
To share the fruits
Of sun-kissed truth
To teach the herds
To reach these peaks
And paint the skies
With toucan beaks
Yet still my rose
Adds one more thorn
Each time you steal
My tusk and horn
So wildfire
Blood is ice
I thunder strike
The same place twice
A crown of sticks
And sharpened stone
The roots of my
Sequoia throne
Just try and tame
My lion's mane
You'll get lost in
My jungle brain
The hurricanes
No floods can cease
Emoceanal
Disasterpiece
My eagle wings
Embrace the squall
I trip on shrooms
Then waterfall
A monkey see
Just doing me
Without this pen
A chimpanzee
